I think that the real bug is in dvi2ps, but the `fix seems to not interfere with other documents. Case occurred when `a string of text started in the upper left-hand corner of the page. `A ` -41 r(moveto) (string) s(how) was failing. `Doing a ` -41 0 p[moveto] (string) s(how) worked. ` My version of dvi2ps initializes the position at the beginning of a page to some impossible value, so it always starts with an absolute movement. -- Piet van Oostrum, Dept of Computer Science, University of Utrecht Padualaan 14, P.O.
