I have been requested to create a postscript file for a graphics document, and
ship it by internet email. The problem I have is that when I create the PS file
via the print dialog, that I produce a HEMONGOUS file. The document I was
working with was a PowerPoint doc with two relatively simple slides - and the
PS file produced was 800k. 

In the bad old days under Sys6, we would produce either a complete PS file, or
a PS file less header. Now that does not seem to be possible. 

The bottom line question is 
	- how can I produce a reasonable size PS doc?

Thanks in advance,
  ---jon---
