I designed my own cover page, and then went into the "master" copy that
comes wth the package and snipped out the parts of the Postscript that were
important, pasting them into the appropriate places.

It took a few iterations of testing, but it works.

You might want to consider, for the next "roll" of the code, putting
together JUST the snippets of the code that need to be there (the macro
defintitions and expansions) and how to paste them into a standard
Postscript page.
