    *  Hello, postscript gurus.  I've got a postscript file that
    *  I've rolled myself that computes and draws mazes randomly,
    *  and I've been happily printing it from my unix system by
    *  sending it directly to postscript printers.  However, a
    *  mac user wants to be able to print out the same file from
    *  his mac; but all the word processors seem to intercept the
    *  text of my postscript file and print it out as text!

    *  How do you send postscript text directly to a postscript
    *  printer on a Macintosh?

On System 6, Use the SendPs utility, or,
the Adobe font downloader utility -- latest is version 5.0.4,

On System 7, use the LaserWriter utility from More Tidbits folder.

This information is all covered in my new book, PostScript by
Example, should be in the stores about now.
