Well I'm beginning to think that the apple laserwriter driver is quite buggy with Win98 SE, eh ?

Best regads.

Well, here's what I get using this driver with the EPS option:

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
: 0 42 321 47 rc 0 0 0 sco %%IncludeFont: Times-Roman
(F0) cvn
0.905

F0_42
Ji 
-4 42 M 
-0.244 0 (XXXX-todays-date)A 
; 
LH 
pagesave restore
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

So maybe you should use the EPS option, eh?  I will remove the "or portable
option" from the HOWTO.
