Hmmm, I can't grok these paragraphs. The versions of PS_START and
PS_END on your website are for direct graphics and use direct graphics
fonts. PS_END does not have an option to create a PDF file. Are
you saying that you have versions of PS_START and PS_END for use with
the new (V8.0) graphics? --Wayne
