Or is it just my bug? The following program, when printed on two different PostScript printers incorporating Adobe's PostScript engine (Apple LaserWriter and DataProducts Laser Printer), gives me the same funny picture. The program is supposed to just draw a U at a 60 degree angle, but it comes out with the U, but also a little spike on the left vertical bar. Changing the rotation angle from 60 to 61 or 59, does not produce the little spike. Also, changing the numbers sometimes does not produce spike. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. ----- 8< ----- 8< ----- 8< ----- 8< ----- 8< ----- 8< ----- 8< ----- 8< ----- 200 200 translate 60 rotate newpath 11.25 setlinewidth 5.625 52.785 moveto 0 -40.32 rlineto 12.465 12.465 6.84 180 360 arc 0 40.32 rlineto stroke showpage
