In MS Windows, I want to `pass through' some code that should hold for the
whole PostScript printing job (specifically, I am trying to override the
default screening function, which on many printers is not very good).

Now I can't use the PASSTHROUGH Escape until after the STARTDOC escape, and
output inserted then is within the save/restore context of the first page.
So I have to insert this code again and again after every NEWFRAME Escape.
I don't suppose there is a way to insert code BEFORE the first page, so
that it remains in place for the whole print job?
