If anybody has  any answer to this, please  forward the mail to me or
post it to the net. I generated an .EPS file from WfW and was able to 
print it on a PC connected  to a PosatScript Printer without windows 
by executing the following set of commands:
           copy /b header.eps lpt1:
	   copy /b word.eps   lpt1:

I uploaded  both the files on a Unix system (both as text and binary)
but when  I tried to "lpr" the header file, the printer spot out a 
page with a line  "Error in binary file" printed on that page.
