I have a major problem sending files directly, or as postscript files from applications running under Windows 2000 to a RIP 50 Linotronic 330 Imagesetter. 
Windows 2000 of course is postscript level 3 and the RIP 50 is a postscript level 2. I work in printing and work with Pagemaker 7.0, and in doing color separations we do not get a rosette pattern on the film which is very important for 4 color work. 
Any ideas how to work around this problem.

Windows 2000 includes a PostScript driver that can generate level 1 ,
level 2 or level 3. The PPD file identifies which level to generate.

If you use PageMaker the driver is not very important, because
PageMaker overrides all driver settings.  Choosing the right PPD in
PageMaker's print dialogs (NOT "Compose to") is the vital thing. If
that still doesn't work, it may be worth posting in the PageMaker
forum.
