Working in postscript. I need to be able to change the font and/or size on a centered line and keep it centered. For example: on a business card the name line might include the degree title "John Doe, MDS, MS, PhD (etc...). If the name is 11pt and the degrees are say 8pt, how can I change that AND keep the line properly centered? I hope that makes sense. Any help is appreciated.

Hello
Use command stringwidth to estimate the length of your text, and then calculate the x from left to have a centered text.
Do not forget the "pop" just after. (see in postscript cookbook)
