I am producing PostScript on a Mac IIcx, from TeXtures documents (version 1.01a), using the print command with option-K (I have also tried option-F). The chooser is configured to output to a LaserWriter although, currently, no printer is hooked up to the system. The PostScript file is then transferred to a Mac SE (via floppy) and downloaded to its LaserWriter using SendPS 1.3. This invariably produces the error message: %%[error: unknown; OffendingCommand: md]%% from within SendPS. Nothing is printed. Is there an obvious blunder here? I've looked at the PostScript file and have no idea why the make dictionary command (md) should fail. Any help much appreciated. **************************************************************************** FROM : Jan Andrew Purchase | Snail: Room 208, PhD Lab., | Computer Science Dept., JANET : J.Purchase@uk.ac.ucl.cs | University College, ARPANET : J.Purchase@cs.ucl.ac.uk | London, UK.
