Can anyone help me?

I have a number of Mac users, who would prefer to use Microsoft Word (and
MacPaint-MacDraw etc) to create pages of information, which is to become
part of a Sun based system.

We have discovered that <Cmd-F> during the Mac print operation will create a
PostScript file (without "AppleDict md") and <Cmd-K> appears to create a 
PostScript file (starting with "AppleDict md").  After transfering either
file to the Sun (via TOPS), inserting a "%!" where needed, neither file
will print on a laserwriter attached to the Sun nor display under NeWS.

Does anyone know what I need to change to get these documents to display/print
on the Sun?  thanks in advance!
