I think I've found a couple of bugs in Ghostscript 1.2.

1) Checking out how TheFont scales I found that 'K' doesn't get painted
   correctly either in the X or in the SunView version.  Try:

    /TheFont findfont 100 scalefont setfont
    100 700 moveto (K) show

   Note the white streak running horizontally from the bottom of the
   top right leg (arm?) of the K, to the right.

2) As I was trying out this K-problem in various rotations I found that
   the graphics state isn't reset at showpage/copypage/erasepage.
   I expected that an 'initgraphics' should take place, but apparently not.
