The two files are attached, renamed to identify the version of the .ppd
file with which they were produced. 

I used the same source file for both, and the errors produced with the
intrepid version of the .ppd consist of a "box" character substituted
for the "f" character in the Page header (1 o  1) and the three "8"
characters on the second line also print as "box" characters. 

The hardy version of the .ppd produces correct output.
