I have successfully compiled ralpage and xps - the postscript previewers on our SunClusters. Both tools work fine with the ps files provided with xps. However they don't work with other ps files, for instance, ps files produced from Xmaker. I got an error message saying 'dictfull in operator def'. If anybody knows how to cure this problem, please reply to haozhou@acsu.buffalo.edu. Thanks in advance. Hao Zhou

I saw this as well when previewing FrameMaker postscript files using ralpage. The fix I applied was a simple hack - increase the size of all dictionaries by one element by changing MakeDictBody. This solved the problem. static Type MakeDictBody (size) int size; { Type dict; int i; struct dict_entry *hash; dict = (struct dict_struct *) Malloc ((unsigned) sizeof (struct dict_st! + size++; dict->dict_size = size; Keith Packard MIT X Consortium

Thanks for the patch, Keith, but it only helps a little. I run ralpage on two output file from FrameMaker, and get the following errors: 11 % ralpage test2.ps undefined in operator 12 % ralpage test.ps undefined in operator colorimage -- Bill Janssen janssen@parc.xerox.com (415) 494-4763 Xerox Palo Alto Research Center 3333 Coyote Hill Road, Palo Alto, California 94304
