Oops - sorry! OK - installed it. I wanted to try saving it as a ps, as well as printing it, and the results are very strange. In the saved file, konqueror can display the front page iconised, but KGhostView says there is only 1 page, and it displays an empty page. Karbon14 opens without any document at all. If you pipe the output to xpp it doesn't work at all, and piping it to lpr printed the first page only - though it was with the correct aspect ratio. Not too encouraging. Any more ideas? Anne
