Does anyone know of a program (source code) that replaces the Adobe TranScript
psrev program? The psrev program is so out-of-date that it doesn't understand
documents conforming to level three. I use groff for PostScript generation.
But, because I include some other PostScript EPS files in my code, the psrev
program gets lost on counting pages because of the extra %%Trailer, etc.
I'd prefer to go to a PostScript page grabber program that is up-to-date.
I can only anonuucp from places, I cannot ftp from anywhere. If there is
something on uunet, I can get it (anonuucp).
Thanks for your help.

Unfortunately, due to other major expenses, I cannot afford the new version. :-( -- harvard\ att!nicmad\ spool.cs.wisc.edu!astroatc!vidiot!brown Vidiot ucbvax!uwvax..........!astroatc!vidiot!brown rutgers/ decvax!nicmad/ INTERNET:vidiot!brown%astroatc@spool.cs.wisc.edu

For those of you who don't want to (or can't afford to) pay thousands of
dollars for software, and/or want the source code, you can get James
Clark's freely redistributable lprps spooler and psrev and textps
programs from:

There seems to be a common misperception that you can't. Sherri Nichols snichols@adobe.com
