[comp.sys.mac] Getting postscript under 6.0.2?

ephraim@think.COM (Ephraim Vishniac) (11/14/88)

A user here at TMC tells me he can't seem to get postscript files
using the old 'F' or 'K' trick under 6.0.2.  It works fine under
System Tools 5.0, but under 6.0.2 the application (MS Word) behaves as
if the keys were pressed after printing was complete.

Does anyone know whether this handy hidden feature has left us?  Or is
it just MS Word?

     On two occasions I have been asked, "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put
     into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?"

It appears in my experience that Background printing must be disabled for
the key tricks to work.  So, use the chooser to be sure Backgrounding isn't
enabled.
