According to OLC, users are running into this often enough that they
recomend not printing from xfig under solaris.  Another bug with xfig
under solaris is that rotated text is handled incorrectly; I started
looking into this but didn't go very far.  someone should deal with
these.

  Hi! The following report was sent in to "bugs". I just tried it
  on my sun, and got the same result -- a printout of an error message
  saying:
  
  lpd: money: filter "psdf" not available [carla mickey-mouse.MIT.EDU]
  
  						Thanks,
