Hi,

I have to object to a previous posting that mentionned that you can't get
a Postscript file on disk with non-PS programs. I have been doing it for a
long time. I don't have a printer at home, and I don't have copies of all my
favorite applications at work, so I often 'print' a PS file to disk from
various applications at home, and then use sendPS to print these files at
work; it's great!

Just for fun, I just tried creating a SuperPaint 2.0 disk file, and it
worked. I then sent it to the printer with sendPS; no problems there either.
I am running system 6.0.3 on a Mac Plus at work, and the Laser Prep and
LaserWriter files are both version 5.2. You need these files to get your PS
file to disk. One of these (I think its Laser Prep) CONVERTS everything you
want to print to PS for the LaserWriter, a PS printer (most of them anyway).
Just pretend you have a LaserWriter by selecting it in the chooser; when the
print dialog comes up to print on the LaserWriter, you will see a 'disk
file' check box. Just click in it and click OK. That's all. This check box
use to be hidden, and you could use Resedit in the past to make it show, or
hold command-F.

Hope this helps, Bertrand Limoges
