SYNOPSIS
fixmswrd [-v] [file [output-file]]
DESCRIPTION
This program patches the postscript generated by MS Word
printer drivers so they work with Ghostview 1.5. The prob-
lem is that the document structuring conventions are not
followed by MS Word. The pages are supposed to be indepen-
dent but they depend on a dictionary being opened outside of
the pages. The erroneous structure is modified, and a com-
ment of the following form is added to the document to mark
that it has been converted:
%LOCALGhostviewPatched
