Hi Akim,

are you able to provide references to the Postscript specs where it
specifies that the fonts must be in the prolog in the manner you described?

How do they fail? Can you provide a definitive set of sample commands
to illustrate the problem, if it still exists in the latest X11R7
packages in unstable? 

 I tried psnup -4, but it appears to work "fine", the output prints to
paper as requested, 4 logical pages to one physical page, fonts looking
the same as in the original Xprint output.  gv displays it a little
funny, truncating the text, but I suspect that is a different problem.
