That sounds right but we have a Sun running transcript and are having a
problem with this.  A few users are creating postscript files on their
Macs and then uploading them to the Sun and printing them.  The result is
either nothing after the burst page or a copy of the postscript file.  We
cannot get the document to print properly.  The first line is
'%!PS-Adobe-2.0' although I have tried also '%!', '%!PS-Adobe-1.0', and
'!%PS-Adobe'.  Has anyone else seen this?
