Both the Postscript implmentations I've come across are not what I'd call compatible; either with the "reference source" (Red Book, I assume), or with Adobe implementations. The "reference source" is incomplete, and inconsistent; I don't know if this is true for the equivalent for NeWS. But then, there's no percentage for Adobe in producing an Implementor's Guide (grin). This just goes to show that there's no substitute for having the source, in practice (I personally would be happier with a *real* spec. in Z or VDM). I note that after all this mail that said "binaries are OK for NeWS", I get several pieces of mail describing bugs! (The prosecution rests ...).
