According to xxd's man page: Use the combination -r -p to read plain hexadecimal dumps without line number information and without a particular column layout. Additional Whitespace and line-breaks are allowed anywhere. The last sentence, in particular, seems to indicate that xxd should be able to handle the format of the file, even if it isn't postscript format. -- James GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 James Vega <james...@debian.org> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
