Don't worry Jordan, I do have a printer, & I can assure you ghostscript & ghostview work , I use them every day with groff & my wysiwyg patches to vi & ghostview to make a nice(ish) doc editing thing, & print to hp laser often, & can dicert the .ps files to flexfax, so all is not bad :-) true I dont use all those other tools, but same as anything else, he who needs it will use it & fix it, (& if they dont fix it - so what - we're not collecting 2000 DM per OS CD like some UX vendors :-) Julian S
