If I "print file" from MS Word v3.0 with applaser.prd as the printer, shouldn't
I get a PostScript file as output?  I may be doing something wrong, but I am
getting a file in the MSPRINT format (as described in the Printer Information
booklet).  

We have a LaserWriter connected to our Vax and I would like to use it to print
my Word documents.  If anybody has written a MSPRINT -> PostScript filter, I
would be interested in getting a copy of it.
