Hi

For PostScript in Windows 95 you can do the following:

In Windows 95, click on Start, Settings, Printer, Add Printer, next, Apple
Laser Writer, next, then choose FILE: under available ports, next, type
PostScript for 'printer name', next, and No for 'print a test page'.

Now when you want to print in PostScript in MSWord, all you have to do is
choose PostScript as your printer, then choose a folder and type a name for
your file (e.g. mydoc.ps; don't forget to delete the default .prn extension
when you're asked for a file name).

cheers
tony
