I am running NeWS 1.1 I have a program, written entirely in PostScript, that gets data from an input file and draws a (beautiful) picture of a chromosome into a window. I want to be able to send it to a printer to get a hardcopy of the picture. So I have another version of the program, without the window stuff and headed with %! The printer (westley) gives me this error message: banner: shemesh:rena Job: print20 Date: Fri Nov 4 10:24:25 1988 psif: shemesh:rena westley start - Fri Nov 4 10:24:26 1988 psif: initial status - %%[ status: busy; source: serial 25 ]%% %%[ Error: undefinedfilename; OffendingCommand: file ]%% %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% psif: end - Fri Nov 4 10:24:39 1988 Though the necessary file does exist, and is called by its full path name. My workstation, the printer, and the PostScript interpreter run off the same server. When I change the program so that all the necessary data is in the the program itself, no need to read another file, it prints the picture perfectly. Am I trying to do the impossible? I'd appreciate any help. rena@shemesh.lanl.gov
