I have written a PS program to output our Department letterhead.
I would like to include this into the PS input to the
printer, so that a person could print a letter on Dept.
letterhead without actually changing the printer paper.

Here, we use psroff, psdit (PS DITroff), and Apple Laserwriters.
The output from psdit (which then goes to the printer) has a really
crazy "prolog" that rescales the page and translates it.

My present problem is this: I can get the "letterhead" to come
out but my letter's text is in the top left corner, and (looks like)
it's scaled by 0.4 X 0.4 .

I have inserted my PS program before any of the "prolog" commands
are executed, and everything (I think) is translated back to
what it was before I started.

Any experienced help in this matter would be appreciated. Thanks
