It would be helpful to have a more precise definition of "newer". I have noticed that Mandrake 9.0 appears to have split their tetex 1.07 package. Although most "teTeX 1.07" systems have the older dvips, Mandrake's dvips from tetex-dvips-1.0.7-60mdk.i586.rpm does not exhibit the problem (sorry I don't recall the dvips version that worked -- it is installed on a laptop that is locked up for the night in my office). -- George White <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Head of St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia
