I have come back to lout after a long absence doing other things. I
want to say that 3.17 is a great advance over the 3.08 that RedHat
distributes its Linux 5.2
I have the unenviable task of doing some forms. I don't get to make
them up. I have to duplicate them. The file below is part of that
effort.
I seem to have found a problem. Probably through my own doing.
It is with what I call signature lines. They should look like this:
[Signature] Person's Name Boss
----------------------------------------------
Approving Authority Typed Name Title
lout test > test.ps generates a perfect .ps file
lout -PDF test > test.pdf doesn't
ps2pdf test.ps test.pdf generates a perfect .pdf file
I am using lout 3.17 and ghostscript 5.50 on a pretty stock
RedHat Linux 5.2 system.
