I am using xwd and xpr to print my windows on to a postscript
printer. Whenever the color of the text in a window 
is closer to white, I do not see the actual
text on the print out. However, if the color of the
text is black, the text does appear on the print out. 

I already know two solutions:
a)  Change the window properties.
    The problem is that my
    users will not like this solution.
b)  Change the application code to
    paint foreground text in black color only.
    Too late.

Is there any other solution?
Does anyone has a copy of xwd and/or xpr?

Thanks.
