We use the TranScript package here to send stuff from ditroff to our Apple LaserWriter plus. Most of the time this is fine, but the underlines and bold rules generated from "tbl" do not line up on the LaserWriter. Does anybody have a solution for this problem, such as sending some PostScript down with each job, or prepended to the prologue file?

TranScript 2.1 fixes this, among other things. To fix 2.0, try the following patch to psdit.pro posted 1987/10/12 by comet!feldman (Steve Feldman). 191c191 < /br{0 750 moveto 0 -1000 rls}def --- > /br{0 880 moveto 0 -1040 rls}def

Steve Feldman <feldman@tymix.UUCP> suggested the following patch.
It seems to work fine.
