   The output of "make USA" prints nothing on my printer, after a lot of
   computing/data transfer. I'm on a Sun3/60 running SunOS 4.0.3, spooling
   to a remote Apple Laserwriter Plus hooked up to a Sun3/50. We use
   Adobe's Transcript package to handle PostScript printing.

Early versions of TranScript have a bug in the page reversal filter
that causes it to mess up documents that follow version 2.0 or later
of the Adobe Document Structuring Conventions.  This is almost
certainly the problem that you're encountering.

A workaround is to insert the following line

%!

before the first line of the PostScript file.
