You shouldn't need any disks for changing just the formatting of 
numbers, dates and currency.

Translations are another story. I prefer English menus and dialogs, but 
they do not sell the English disk here.

Interesting. Changing from "POSIX" to "C" fixes the Postscript issue, as 
well as the font issue.

This gives an error when opening it in gsview.

As I said, "POSIX"->"C" fixes this.
