I'm sorry, my disability means I need to move slower than I personally think is reasonable, but leave me a day or so with it, I'll puzzle this out.

OK, I appreciate that, it seems to work on Linux ghostscript also, just fails on FreeBSD's ghostscript, so I'll be checking out it's font handling today, I'm willing to bet that's the problem. To the others (I'm still getting more test offers!) I have all the testing I could possibly need now, I only need to troubleshoot this now, there's something screwy about gs's font handling. > > Tim > > > Chuck Robey wrote: > Tim Kellers wrote: > 55 completely blank pages > > well, thanks very much, Tim.
