I am totally baffled.  Could you send me the version that has the
'invisible' characters as well.  I have stared at this and can find
no reasonable reason why there should be a difference.

What I would like to try is to modify the hp3 to hp3test DYNAMICALLY
and see what happens.  You can do this by setting up two print queues -
one hp3 and hp3test and sending a job to one.  Then copy the job from
the queue to the other queue and send it.

Call me on the phone if you feel brave and/or masochistic enough
to try this.
