The same goes for me, too. A Laserwriter has problems, Ghostview has
problems with some docs, gs has problems. I could print the ibuild
user's guide only after manually editing the ps-file and shifting the
postscript-trailer with the page comment to the beginning of the file.

I think there would be less problems, if they were produced by dvips
instead of dvi2ps and if they used a cleaner framemaker-prolog (and
framemaker-converted ps-files that do not play tricks (i.e. coping
with Mac-dictionaries etc.).

Ciao Robert
