Superpaint but not with Aldus Freehand.  I've played with memory
under MultiFinder, turned off multiFinder etc.  Ieither get a
message "can't set up printer file" or the dreaded BOMB!
Any ideas

My earlier message was somewhat scrambled.  I can't get the
Deskwriter to print an Aldus Freehand file.  It does fine with
Canvas and Superpaint files. It's not a memory or MultiFinder
problem.  I get a message saying "can't set up printer file"
or I get a BOMB!
Any ideas?

Isn't Freehand a postscript program?  I thought that it required a postscript
output device in order to work.
