Hmm. I think IDT is exchanging the background and foreground colors when
printing to postscript. ctrans has more control over this and I don't think
it does this by default.

As for why this might be happening:

Are you setting "cnInfoLabelFontColor" and "cnInfoLabelBackgroundColor" to
something other than "foreground" and "background" respectively? If IDT
is swapping foreground and background colors for postscript printing and
one of the above is neither "foreground" or "background", this will cause
the problem. Same goes for:

"cnHighLabelBackgroundColor" and "cnHighLabelFontColor"
"cnLowLabelBackgroundColor" and "cnLowLabelFontColor"
