Hello,

ps-print.el has become non-functional for me in compiled form since some
time (days?  weeks? ... not much longer).  It produces only empty .ps
documents.

Here is a very simple recipe for emacs -Q (from *scratch*):

M-: (require 'ps-print) RET

M-: (ps-spool-buffer-with-faces) RET

Switch to the buffer *Post Script*.  The created document ends with


| BeginDoc
| %%EndSetup
| 
| %%Trailer
| %%Pages: 0
| 
| EndDoc
| 
| %%EOF

If I save the buffer to a .ps file and open it with a viewer, I get a
blank page.

Now I repeat the recipe with the source file ps-print.el loaded.  I get
the expected result this time.  Hmm.


Thanks in advance,

Michael.

Yes, it works again for me as well.

Thanks for your efforts!
