(Actually, this has been true for at least a few weeks, but e.g. it is true for a fairly recent compile of 26.0.50.) Symptom: start emacs (/usr/local/bin/emacs-26) via: emacs-26 -Q Then C-u M-x ps-print-buffer ~/Desktop/foo.ps yields a skeletal postscript file foo.ps with no content, no matter the buffer content that should have been printed. I diffed ....share/emacs/26.0.50/lisp/ps-print.el.gz with ....share/emacs/25.2.50/lisp/ps-print.el.gz and more-or-less the only difference was the -*- lexical-binding: t -*- bit on the first line. And indeed, after making a copy of ps-print.el.gz, I deleted this "lexical-binding" setting, deleted the .elc file, restarted emacs-26 and now ps-print-buffer seems to work as expected. I fumbled around a bit, but couldn't really work out more specifically what is breaking... All the best, gm -- oOo George McNinch
