This might be a bug in the command line postscript driver. If you're
using a 2.4 version, the postscript produced from the command line will
differ from the postscript produced from File > Print (the latter of
which is provided by gnomeprint). Since the non-gnomeprint code has
been removed for 2.5.0, I doubt anyone will bother to fix old
postscript driver bugs (if that is indeed the true problem here).
