I manage an electronic repository of scientific reports which are
stored in postscript and accessed by FTP from around the world.
Sources for the postscript vary, and include troff, tex, wordperfect,
etc., but we've had the greatest trouble with macintosh files, which
break non-apple printers and often do not print.

Can someone suggest a good method for getting well-behaved postscript
code from macintosh applications, beyond concatenating the laserprep
code to the beginning of a file?
