Your problem is not with postscript, but rather with TeX. As the
TeXbook explains, TeX discards any spacing commands before something is
printed on a page. To get around it, you trick TeX like you have done
or by an empty \line, or even { }, before your spacing commands. Maybe
even \noindent will work (you have to force TeX out of vertical mode).
\leavevmode will get TeX out of vertical mode.
If you wan't to print something but don't want it to
be seen, one way to do it would be "\ " (without the "'s
of course)
