To try this out:

1. Try this out on the screen
add gnu
gs breakpath.ps format.ps page_dagger.ps text.example

2. Try this out on a printer
cat breakpath.ps format.ps page_dagger.ps text.example | lpr -Pprintername

This is a rather cool text formatter that will allow you to place
text in and around "arbitrary" images! If you use the "page_dagger.ps"
file like in the example above, there will be a dagger in the middle
of the page, and text will flow around the dagger. 

Any postscript path can be turned into a page boundary with this utility.
