Yes I have.  Here's what I do:

---
/NeaterWindow NeatWindow []
classbegin
        /ZoomSteps 4 def

        /flipiconic {
                /flipiconic super send
                /totop super send
        } def

        /ZoomProc {
                /Iconic? Iconic? not store
                /ZoomProc super send
                /Iconic? Iconic? not store
        } def
classend def

/DefaultWindow NeaterWindow store
---

The /flipiconic method will cause the icon or window to be put on
top when going to/from an icon.

The /ZoomProc causes the zooming effect to go the correct way.
(The zoom is performed as if going to an icon when you are going FROM
an icon, and vice versa.)

I am using NeatWindow as my base, but the changes are the same for
DefaultWindow.

>2) Does anyone know how to get the NeWS fonts printed in a document?

I havn't any idea.
