Works as advertised. Unfortunately my hp laserjet 4 does not have many fonts and displays an error message requesting the fonts be loaded for most files I try to convert and print. I did not see anything mentioned in the documentation about how to find out which fonts gs requires are maps the postscript output to so that I can go look for them and load them into the printer. If someone could point me to a reference or example of this, his or her praises shall be sung until my little hplj4 gives up the ghost.
