Hello TeXperts (thanks to D.E.Knuth),

We're in trouble and we hope that one of you can help us.

We installed TeX on a GOULD NP-1. It passed the trip-test succesfully.
There's only one problem left.

We have got two dvi2ps programs. The one distributed with TeX and
w_dvi2ps from J.B. Wang. When we're printing a dvi-file with
the first dvi2ps everything works fine. 

But.... When we want to print a dvi-file with w_dvi2ps, there seems
to occur some problems with the inter-letter spacing. This causes
a ragged right margin. In plain text it's difficult to see it, but
in the table of contents it looks awfull. 

Analyses of the two ps files showed a differences in relative movement.
Does anybody else noticed this or are we the only one.

We like to use w_dvi2ps because the font-scaling, the psfig option
and the use of postscript fonts.

Can someone help us???? Please!


	Thanks in advance,
