Check the list for the patch I posted to the list to fix this problem. I
believe the next version of IFHP will not have the same bug.

Have you checked that the options are ok?
Try in a console:
/usr/local/bin/a2ps -q -B -1 -E -M A4 --borders=no -o test.ps textfile
Where textfile is the file you want to print. The filter_status text
doesn't show any problems. May be a problem with your a2ps install
finding the required pretty conversion reference files??
Hope this helps,
Cheers,

Having forceconversion can give you problems, especially when dealing
with the crap that Windows spits out!
