Subject: Ghostview doesn't work under OpenVMS 7.3

After upgrading to 7.3 using Ghostview showed an "invalid font" message.
Ghostview is a X-window front end to Ghostscript which looks into 
SYS$COMMON:[SYSFONT.XDPS.OUTLINE] for the fonts. This directory is empty, in the 
release notes for OpenVMS 7.3 is a note "Adobe Display PostScript Software No 
Longer Available".

So before upgrade save the fonts!


Regards,
