When I'm in Ventura Publisher, I print to the printer, and
everything is fine.  When I specify a print to disk option, and
later copy the file to the printer, ("copy file.c00 lpt1:"), it
prints in a strange way, as if it drops lines and characters or
font/format commands.

At first I thought that the print to disk option wasn't working
right, so I installed a printer redirecter, and it still did the
same thing.

The printer is a Panasonic KXP 4420 (Laserjet II compatible).

Anyone have any ideas?
