It is really nice to find people who like to help others. The solution to my problem was rather simple. In using kermit to transfer the files I neglected to make sure that the host was setup to receive the file as binary. In kermit this is done by the "-i" switch to allow the file to be sent unaltered. This solved my WP problems. However, the Ami Pro ps file did not have any problems even though the file was not of the same size after transfering. I looked at the ps files generated by WP and Ami Pro and they looked rather different. Isn't postscript language standardized so that two ps files for a given document generated by different software be the same? Again, thank you everyone for your help. Felix
