Hello, I tried to save a PostScrip File with the LaserWriter printer driver and print it with a PostScript Interpreter on an atari st. But it failed, because there are macros defined with the postscript code in LaserPrep which are naturally not known by GhostScript (my postscript interpreter). Had anyone this problem too, or does anyone have the macros defined in LaserPrep? They are stored nicely in the Resource Fork, but are split in at least 25 datasets, so it`s very boring to extract them by hand. Hauke Hes

If you are using a pre-7.0 driver, use the cmd-k key combination to generate the PostScript file. This prepends the LaserPrep macros, whereas the cmd-f key combination does not. - mark
