That is simply not true. If the Postscript code itself does not rely
on really device specific features, the results are pretty much
well defined irrespective of whether the stream is DSC compliant
or not.DSC compliance of output files destined for output never
had been a visibly real problem for most people, even people
who work in graphic design.
I have worked with commercial RIP's before, and I have never
seen one that rejects a file because it is not DSC non-compliant.
