Mark,

Yes, we use GhostScript here at the company I work at for manipulation
of PostScript and PDF files. For version 6.5, I just downloaded the
zip file and built from the sources. I remember the build being very
simple. So, if building the PCSI kit cuts into you valuable time, I
wouldn't worry about it and just provide the zip file. I would be
happy to be a guinea pig for GhostScript V9.02 for OpenVMS. Thanks for
your efforts to actively maintain it for OpenVMS!
