I have a postscript file that produces business cards with our  
department logo.  This file has been around for some time, I believe  
it was originally created on a mac.  I'm trying to use it from my  
NeXT, so that we can take advantage of the 400 dpi on our rather  
complicated logo.  Preview shows the file (although it does give me  
various error messages about missing proper headers and incorrect ps  
information) but won't print it.  And often pukes on the file to the  
extent of returning me to the login prompt.
Anybody know a quick way to cure it (I'm very much  
postscript-ignorant)?  I heard that one of the NeXT graphics apps  
would solve many of these problems if you just opened the file in it  
and saved, but can't remember which it was and the few I have access  
to don't seem to have this magical effect.

Thanks in advance.
