I'm very new to PostScript... Why is it that Pageview dislikes the PostScript files that I've been producing with Word Perfect, then? It gives an unrecognized command error, "_t" followed by 4 digits which I don't recall. Is Pageview reliable? Am I looking at a limitation of it rather than of Word Perfect? I do not *yet* have a PostScript printer. Any day now... Would I be better off using WP for Windows with a Windows PostScript driver? -- :- Michael A.
