I had some postscript document from a multiplatform-DTP program (windows,
mac, amiga, no linux unfortunately, but runs under uae) called PageStream
which after pstops only produced empty pages as well, did not check the
PS version hmm...
If this the %%languagelevel in the postscript file then this must be
level 1 as there is no such information but I also found:
 /languagelevel where {pop languagelevel 1 ne {false setstrokeadjust false 
setoverprint}if }if
I'm not a postscript Guru after all ;)

I suppose that pstops from psutils package has certain problems
with some postscript file. It would be very handy to be able to use it
for me as I have some problems with booklet printing with my DTP program.
I can't really say if pstops has problems with certain postscript levels
or if these are other problems.

But ps2ps -dLanguageLevel=1 should convert to level 1, shouldn't it ?
