	To send PS commands from Word, you must specify the PostScript style.
A style in Word is a set of formatting commands, however, some of them
(called automatic styles) have additional functions. One of these automatic
styles is called PostScript. It just happens to be 10pt bold hidden
normal-font text, but just setting these attributes without setting this
style won't text PS text.

	The automatic styles show up when you need them. Some, like
"footnote" are easy to get to: just open a footnote. PostScript must be
started by choosing Styles under the Format menu and typing in PostScript as
the style name to be selected. Click OK. Your current paragraph should be set
to 10pt bold hidden without any further ado.

	Check the styles list (again, open Format/Styles) and make sure that
the style name PostScript has a bullet next to it. The bullet means that a
style is an automatic style; if it isn't there, you probably typed the name
incorrectly. (Check the manual; I forget if they use two caps or one.)

	The PostScript style may be redefined like any other style and still
send its text to the PS interpreter. However, I'd suggest that you always
keep it as hidden text so you don't print the code directly as well as
executing it.

	Good luck!
