I did not see what to do to a2ps, much less, how to do it. So, having a pressing need, I abandoned a2ps and with relatively little effort I managed to get enscript configured to my liking. I suppose that, running Jessie, I am using unicode, but that aspect of Linux is something I never have studied, and at present I do not have time to study. I simply must use whatever representation the Debian team has decided to employ; but I do regret losing a2ps, which, for a number of years, worked well "right out of the box". However, whatever the representation used in Jessie, enscript is working for me. Thanks, RLH
