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?

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. Ronald A.
