Yes, with WP5.0 to output a postscript file for your document you do:

Shift-F7	Go to the print menu
(S)elect	To select a printer. I use the Apple LaserWriter.  This may
		require your supplemental disks.
(E)dit		Edit the LaserWriter characteristics.
(P)ort		Under port you can select com1... OR a file name.  For 
		example: OUTPUT.PS

At this point, every time you print a document, it overwrites the selected
output file.  Note that the file does not start with %!.
