Recently I ftp anonymously to june.cs.washington.edu
to get this dvi2ps package: ~ftp/tex/w_dvi2ps.tar.Z.
I am interested in that package because it advertises
it can handle the \special commands needed for
Trevor Darrell's psfig and handle postscript fonts.
It also advertises it can handles pk font files.
I follow the instructions to compile the programs
but it doesn't look for pk fonts. It searches for
pxl files. Our system has not used pxl font files
anymore. So the program dies and complains certain
pxl files are not found.
Am I missing something to compile the program?

Is anyone out there using this version of dvi2ps?
