Preceding article asks how to obtain a postscript file while using
SuperPaint:

It is very easy to obtain a copy of the postscript dump from
SuperPaint.

You must have version 3.2 of system with the current chooser,
LaserWriter driver and Laser Prep files.  Appletalk must be
activated thru the control panel even though you don't need a
LaserWriter connected to the Mac.  Then use Chooser to select the
laserwriter icon; if you are not using the current version it will
complain if you don't have a LaserWriter.  Enter SuperPaint and
prepare your document.  Choose Print.  A window will appear asking
you to select how many copies and press either OK or CANCEL.  Make
the appropriate selections but don't click OK.  Hold down either
cloverleaf F or cloverleaf K -- F just dumps the postscript
commands; K dumps the header prep and then dumps the postscript
commands.  While holding down the key (the Mac is now beeping) click
OK or press return.  The postscript commands will appear in an MDS
Edit text file entitled Postscript.

The above is identical to the procedure with MacDraw.
