You just reminded me of a question that I have been wondering for a long time.
Does anybody know why I can't dump Mac figures into a postscript file?
I tried pressing command-F (I hope the command key is the one with propeller)
right after clicking OK in the print menu. I always get a printout, but
the postscript file is never created. Our two Macs and a Laserwriter are
connected to each other through Apple Talk, and we use TOPS to access a Mac
from the other one.
