There are two ways of getting a PostScript file from Mac applications.
The first is to hold down the COMMAND and K keys immediately after clicking
"OK" in the final printer dialog box. This will create a file called
PostScript (or PostScriptn where n=a number if you have a newer finder).
This file contains both the PostScript code for the graphic, but also the
prep file as a header. If you hold down the COMMAND and F keys instead,
you'll get just the graphic.
