What do you mean "without success"?  Did you get a "Postscript0" file at
all?

First, turn off printer spooling.

In the "Print" dialog, after you click "OK", press the "F" key (or "K")
key.  You should see a window, "Creating Postscript File".

HOWEVER, with MacDraw II 1.1, you should do it slightly differently.
Click "OK", wait for the window "Drawing page 1 of 10", THEN
immediately hold down "F" until you see "Creating Postscript File".
MacDraw II 1.1 has the "feature" that you can alter the document
after you click OK, before printing starts!  I was surprised to find this
out when I saw a string "ffffffff" appearing on my document.

With MacDraw II, the postscript file appears in the folder of the application.
With other applications, the postscript file may appear in the folder of the
document, or in the System folder.  If you don't see it, search for
"Postscript" with "File Finder" DA.
