Is there anyway to have Mac applications (such as Word, Write, etc.)
direct their output to a disk file instead of directly to the printer?

What I want to do, exactly, is to send Mac-generated PostScript
files to a Unix machine that has a Laserwriter hooked to it.

The Mac is connected to an IBM PC via the TOPS network and the PC
is connected to the Unix network via Sun PCNFS ethernet--so if
I can get the file on the Mac I've got no problem getting it to
the printer.

Thanks,

Bill Proffer
