I vaguely recall that there is a way to create a 'print to Postscript' printer in OS 9; you have to use the Desktop Printer Utility, though. Then you can open the PS file in OS X with Preview (which converts it on the fly to a PDF) and print it. Play around with the DPU. It's been YEARS since I messed about with OS 9. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
