Well there may be a couple of things. If it is complete in that LaserPrep is stuck on the beginning then you might be halfway there. BUT the real point I wanted to say is that %!PS-Adobe-1.0 is a bad line to stick on the front unless the file is REALLY encapsulated PostScript and can be reversed by transript's reversing filter. I doubt if this stuff can so the line should read %! That tells the spooler it is PostScript but not to try to reverse it. Also, other applications I have seen around use this line carelessly and it causes spooled printer users much grief. tj
