I just used the "command-f before print ok" trick to get postscript from MS
Word.  Problem was that the postscript I got seemed like trash. When I moved it
to a sun and looked at it with a software postscript interpreter there were all
sorts of undifined operators... 

Does MS Word first dowlown some homemade postscript operators which it then
uses in all it printing?

If so can there definitions be obtained?  

My goal here is to get usable (by any postscript interpreter) postscript from
MS Word on the MAC.
