Well, that's useless if the .PS file generated by executor is incorrect.
Try printing any font above 20pt in MS Word 5.1a. Only the first letter
shows up. I don't know if it works for you, but it doesn't for me. Also,
I don't know if my gs is setup incorrectly, but output through gs looks
pretty crappy at 600dpi even with genuine Adobe type 1 fonts. It's not
matter of it will work, but how well it works.
