I'm not a postscript expert, I just use ghostscript to get > printouts on my deskjet. What is a rangecheck error, what causes it? A rangecheck error is the equivalent of "array subscript out of bounds". It indicates an algorithmic error in the PostScript file (or a bug in the interpreter). Please e-mail me (or make available for anonymous FTP) the file that causes the error. L.
