Thanks for the tip.

I bumped into the keyword PRINT_FILE for the WIN device. It was entirely too
easy!

DEVICE, Print_File = 'mydoc.ps'

Now all I need to get is a PostScript printer. I was surprised, by the way,
to learn that not all HP printers can translate
HP-PCL files. Surprise!

Thanks again,

Ben
