An analysis of PG 1034 + 001 extended to include the high-dispersion IUE spectra and the high-resolution optical multiple-mirror telescope echelle spectra is discussed. The observations reveal the presence of absorption lines (C IV at 1548 and 1551 A, N V at 1238 and 1242 A, and O V at 1371 A) from highly ionized species with large redshifts (+ 40-50) km/s) relative to the interstellar lines. The results of a preliminary abundance analysis of the photospheric lines, together with the results of a search of sharp shortward-shifted features are presented. An interpretation of the observed abundances is made in terms of selective radiative forces acting in a high-temperature photosphere. Some speculations on the evolutionary status of DO stars like PG 1034 + 001 are given.
