I am using Ghostview 1.2 on my HP 300 workstation and there seems to be
a bug in the "kshow" operator. Listed below is the PostScript program
which I wrote (to print a string along the curve of a circle) and
works fine on Laserjet III si, but Ghostview places all the characters
on top of each other. If I'm screwing something up, please let me
know.
Thanks,
sandipan
