I just installed `tgif' version 1.5 and found it an attractive program. However, for the benefit of others trying to make it work, I should point out that there are two flaws in the printing part of it: + Encapsulated PostScript rarely has the %%BoundingBox _after_ a prolog of declarations. My dvi to PostScript converter (rightly, I think) threw up on the file until I moved the %%BB to the top (see file.c) + the tgif2ps program manages to delete the %! line whose validity it is checking! I just commented out the check.... the absence of it makes your average printer vomit some rather wordy PostScript code in Courier. Sebastian Rahtz
