That is to say, the problem appears to be
with the viewer and not with the PDF.  Your
original goal was to produce a PDF for the
local photocopy shop.  The shop will not be
using gv (or gs).

I suspect your problem is solved (never was),
and all you need to do is to troll down to
your local photocopy shop and ask them to
view the PDF.
