This is my first time posting so excuse me if I screwed this up.

Anyway, does anyone have some advice on how I can take postscript output
from Microsoft Word 5.0 and upload it to a unix system.  I have tried it 
with some small text files but our printers don't seem to understand the 
postscript as I just get blank pages.  The files start out with

%PS-Adobe-2.0

and we have Adobe 1.0 postscript if that makes any difference.  Any help is 
appreciated and please excuse my ignorance on the subject.
