Did any of you attempt to print the PostScript version of the Ada 95
Rationale taken either from the Ada Information Clearing House host
or as distributed with Gnat-2.03 by NYU?

I tried to print them a number of times, each time unsuccessfully.
The print breaks down with PostScript errors. (The Gnat-2.03 distributed
version printed first 3 chapters and then broke down, the other version
breaks down on the first page.)
I am wondering now whether there is some problem with the distributed
.ps files or whether I have a local setup problem. (I am printing
on a PS printer attached to SS-2 with Sun OS 4.1.3 using NewsPrint software. 
Yes, I do print a lot of (other) postscript files without problems).

The error log file is not very helpful. For exammple printing
the file from AICH:

% \lpr prolog.ps rat1.ps

I get in the log file:
