I'm not sure if this is your problem or not, but I've generally found that it's
best to load the color table immediately after opening the PostScript file and
defining it to be of type color, e.g.
SET_PLOT,'ps'
DEVICE, /COLOR
LOADCT, 13

P.S. Actually comp.lang.idl-pvwave is a better place to ask your question.
This newsgroup, comp.lang.idl, is really supposed to be for something with the
same initials called Interface Description Language. It's a common and
understandable mistake, which is why anyone interested in RSI's product
(Interactive Data Language) should monitor both groups. I'm cross-posting this
to both groups.
