The explanation from Microsoft was as follows (readers digest version): 1) print to file WILL NOT include the prologue file that would normally be sent to the printer, if it were direct connected. 2) Microsoft assumes (because it has always been done that way with "word") that the end user will MANUALLY sent the prolog file to the printer before dumping the "save to file" output.
