Reading the man page this appears suspect to me since it says it is
preparing the output for a specific printer and it must print on
PostScript printers - but I will try it out.  We are updating much of
the CookBook at the present time.

What tool do you use to make the pdf?  Perhaps our web site should
have both .ps and .pdf versions.
