This may seem like a rather simple question, but I cannot figure out how
to do this.  I have some postscript files that have been downloaded from
a UNIX machine, that was consequently generated there.  I have tried using
MS Word in the postscript mode to print these files, but to no avail the
printer just sits blinking there for several minutes and ejects a single
blank page.  Is there any PD or Shareware program that will dump a text
file as postscript to the printer (If so, where is it located), or is
there some other way of making the printer print postscript?  Thanks in
advance.
