dvipsone and PSTricks (fwd)

Mon Jun 13 11:00:26 CEST 2005

In addition,

the   yandytex support pages say the following:

========
Q: Timothy Van Zandt's PSTricks doesn't seem to work properly with
   DVIPSONE.

A: PSTricks uses raw PostScript to do all the wonderful things it
   does. Each printer driver creates a different PostScript environment,
   so PSTricks needs to be told what DVIPSONE uses. Look in the PS folder
   for the files pstricks.pro, pst-show.pro, and pstricks.con (a TeX
   header file) specially modified to work with DVIPSONE.
========

so you may need to go in and edit the prologue and config files
for pstricks as well ...
