To get the PS output from most Mac word processors, do what you would to print
to a laser printer (whether one is actually connected or not), and just as you
hit the last "OK" button to have it print, hit Command-F (or Command-K if you
want the LaserPrep stuff included). This will save a file called something
like "PostScript 1".
To later send the PS to the printer, one possible application to do so is
called SendPS, which I think is available through anonymous ftp on
sumex-aim.stanford.edu.
