Is there any way to cause some PostScript to be printed from Hypercard
on the Mac? I mean that in the way one can have PostScript in a special
style in MicroSoft Word, and it gets passed untranslated to the printer
where it is executed.
I remember in the early days there was a special font which one could
use in MacWrite which had that property. You would write a PostScript
program in that font, shrink the point size to 1 to make it disturb the
other text on the page as little as possible, and the program would
get passed to the printer and executed. I never understood how that
actually worked--anybody know? Is there a version which still works
with modern systems? I seem to recall there were some crashy bugs
which caused me to stop using it a long time ago.
I'd very much like to merge some PostScript code with normal printed
text from HyperCard if there is a way, substituting data from the
HyperCard into a PS string then manipulating it in PostScript.
