Do you mean psroff shipped with Adobe TranScript 2.1, and pageview shipped with OpenWindows 2.0? If so, your problem may be that the psroff output is missing a %%Pages: line (pageview will only display conforming documents, and opinions on conforms vary wildly). If not, what software are you talking about? >Namely, each >page overlaps rather than replaces the previous page. >(eg: no erase is occuring of the previous page) Is it stopping to let you see the page? If not, that's the normal behavior when confronted with PostScript that doesn't fit its definition of "conforming". -- J Greely (jgreely@cis.ohio-state.edu; osu-cis!jgreely)
