[root@hewes darren]# file /usr/share/ghostscript/5.50/align.ps
/usr/share/ghostscript/5.50/align.ps: English text

It's not a traditional postscript file, so the typing fails, and it's treated like ascii.

[root@hewes darren]# file /usr/share/ghostscript/5.50/examples/escher.ps 
/usr/share/ghostscript/5.50/examples/escher.ps: PostScript document text

See the difference? Hylafax treats align.p just as UNIX types the file, as
text.
