[xep-support] XEP 3.6.1: Invalid PostScript file

I could not reproduce the problem with GhostScript 7.04 and 8.00.
Perhaps it is due to the fact that we don't have fonts available. Could
you please send me off list (to support at renderx.com) the following
things:

- the PostScript file as it comes out from XEP on your site;
- the error diagnostics for both GhostScript 7 and your printer;
- the model of the printer.

(The only change in PostScript for version 3.6 as opposed to 3.5
is the treatment of page device. It should not cause any problems:
unlike in 3.5, all calls to setpagedevice are preceded with a check
for the respective field to be present in currentpagedevice;
and page device state is correctly restored after individual pages
and at the end of the document).

Thank you for the feedback.

Best regards,
Nikolai Grigoriev

Hi,

The accompanying FO file results in an invalid PostScript file with
versions 3.6 and 3.6.1 of XEP. With version 3.5.4 it works fine.
Our printer as well as Ghostscript 7 complain about the error.

Regards,

Werner.
