The answer was to place the line << /Duplex true >> setpagedevice near the start of the Postscript file. The C code I use to write the very minimal Postscript header is now fprintf(printer, "%! PRINTPS.CPP PostScript OUTPUT\n"); fprintf(printer, "<< /Duplex true >> setpagedevice\n"); fprintf(printer, "/cour /Courier findfont %d scalefont def\n", linesize); fprintf(printer, "cour setfont gsave\n"); instead of fprintf(printer, "%! PRINTPS.CPP PostScript OUTPUT\n"); fprintf(printer, "/cour /Courier findfont %d scalefont def\n", linesize); fprintf(printer, "cour setfont gsave\n"); -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
