Is it completely impossible to generate a PostScript file from the print dialogs under Multifinder? The Command-F or Command-K switches to produce PostScript files seem to only work under Finder.

I seem to remember hearing that someone had trouble with 6.02. Does anyone know if this is still supported under 6.02? David Rudolph rudolph@m.cs.uiuc.edu University of Illinois

You can use Command-F or K under the MultiFinder to produce PostScript files if you go to the Chooser and turn off Background Printing.

Otherwise PrintMonitor gets in the way. Make sure you are using the latest LaserWriter software (v5.2). -- Robert N.
