Reasons for switching to GS7: security (postscript is a programming language,
and can do harm) better (more conformant) quality of the resulting pdf (smaller)
Of course Gerben has a ii-package at url:
http://www.ntg.nl/macosx-tex/i-packages/gs7.ii
all packages can be found at: http://www.rna.nl/ii.html
WARNING: remove GS6 before installing GS7
Kind regards,
