I'm trying to set up the Macintosh version of Aldus PageMaker so that
when it prints, it either
 (1) uses Apple's LaserPrep instead of Aldus' AldusPrep, or
 (2) removes AldusPrep from the LaserWriter's memory after printing
     a document.

I can do either of these from PageMaker menus, but I'd like to set up
things so that I don't have to rely on users knowing how and remembering
to do one of the above.

The reasons for this are
 (1) I don't want AldusPrep sitting in the LaserWriter's memory taking
     up space that others sharing the printer might otherwise use, and
 (2) I want to avoid potential conflicts between the LaserPrep and
     AldusPrep both being in the LaserWriter's memory simultaneously.

I called Aldus.  They say there is no way to change the program defaults.
They suggested modifying the  LaserWriterPlus.apd  file so that it removes
AldusPrep from memory after each printing job.  To find the necessary
code, they suggested printing a simple postscript file to disk, once
with the "Make Aldus Prep permanent" option on, and once with it off.

I did this.  The file with the "... permanent" option ON has four lines
more than the file with the option OFF.  These lines include three near
the beginning of the (16-page small-font printed) file:
	%%BeginExitServer:0
	0 serverdict begin exitserver
	%%EndExitServer
and one line (marked below with >>>) about 40 lines from the end of the
file in the following context:
	%%EndProcSet
>>>	%%EOF
	%%EndProlog
	AldusDict begin
	%%BeginSetup

My questions are:
 (1) Are my concerns valid?  If so,
 (2) Has Aldus pointed me in the right direction?  If so,
 (3) Where should I insert the above lines in the .apd file?

One other suggestion they made was to look into a desk accessory from
CE Software in DesMoines (515) 224-1995 which can be used to reset a
LaserWriter between print jobs without turning the power off and on.
Does anyone have experience with this program?
