Hi all,

I have a problem when displaying colored PostScript pictures
created with Mathematica. Within these files, lots of different
colors are declared using the "setrgbcolor" operator. However,
when viewing the file using Ghostscript rel. 2.5.2, I only see a 
very limited amount (e.g. 8-30 colors; these are the results
when converting the file to ppm or gif and viewing it using "xv"). 
Viewing the same file using dxpsview (the DEC supplied PostScript 
Viewer), it contains MUCH more colors. Any suggestions why I can't 
get the same results using Ghostscript?

I am running Ghostscript rel. 2.5.2 on a DECstation 5000/240 with 
24-bit color display under Ultrix rel. 4.2.

Best Regards
