Is there a way to get a PostScript version of an MS-Word file? I seem to recall hearing something about doing this from the Print Dialog. Thanks in advance. Michael Vinson

Request for help from Mac gurus: I'm trying to get PostScript files from MacDraw and Cricket by asking it to print and then keeping the "clover-F" keys pressed down to force it to save a PostScript file. I have 3 problems: (i) this does not work under multifinder, and (ii) the generated PostScript does not have a proper BoundingBox statement; it has ? marks instead of the numbers, as follows: %%BoundingBox ? ? ? ? (iii) How does one get the PostScript header, with the Mac specific definitions, which is needed to print out the postscript file created with "clover-F"? I've tried "clover-K" but can't even print the generated file as a PostScript file (or view it with ghostscript..) As you've probably guessed, I'm trying to use this to get Mac figures into LaTeX documents. Any help along those lines will be greatly appreciated. Please send mail to me directly at ravi@ace3.sps.mot.com because I don't normally get this newsgroup. Thanks, -ravi
