Good day,

I think the reason for changing this compared to emacs 23.4 is the change in
simple.el when defining an overlay for displaying a region.

(See

)

With this change the function ps-generate-postscript-with-faces1 gets the
wrong face for printing, the face of the region and not the face of the
underlying text.

The following change to lisp/ps-def.el tries to corrects this:

Subject: [PATCH] Postscript print region colorized again (bug#16866)

After changing the region handling the region itself is defined by an
overlay with a face.

When print a region the code for assembling the postscript data now gets the
face of the overlay instead of the face of the text to print. This results
in an BW printing instead of a colored printing.

This patch changes this by testing if the handled overlay is the region
overlay and ignoring the face of it. The region overlay is detected by
reading the window parameter 'internal-region-overlay of the selected window.

TINY CHANGE.
