[net.micro.mac] MacDraw file format?

jsl@potomac.UUCP (02/14/86)

Does anyone know of a document describing the format of a MacDraw file?  I'd
like to write an application that converts MacDraw files to raw PostScript.

If, when you are printing, you hold down Command-F, MacDraw will produce
a PostScript file.

	I'm told that this will actually work with any application.
You just print to the laser writer and as soon as you click on the
OK type Command-F.

Someone, Somewhere, must have the MacDraw file format, complete with 
the meaning of the "comments".  I remember this question from years
ago.  Is it archived somewhere?
