phew... I was going crazy overnight trying to figure this out -- glad to know it's 'just' a bug.
Chris, any idea of the timescale (weeks, months, years?) for the bug fix. Notice also in Phillip's dropbox test.ps plot that the axis labels appear to be drawn multiple times in slightly different fonts. (I see the same thing). Maybe another clue as to what's happening.
thanks,
John
