I created a simple graphic in MacDraw II (v1.1) and "printed" it to 
2 ps file's, both with and w/o a header, and then moved them over 
to a NeXT, running under 2.0. With either file the Preview program
was not able to open or display the simple box graphics I had created.

The 'command' window noted a variety of ps errors... does anybody
have a suggestion of what needs to be fixed to preview mac generated
os files?
