What's the problem here> AWGS originally printed one page at a time to avoid memory overhead when printing to the ImageWriter (where the entire document has to be spooled in memory). I'm not sure why you get two pages dumped to file instead of just one, but the problem is a matter of the LaserWriter checking for Fan-F at the beginning of each document. If you hold down that key sequence the entire time you're printing, you'll get one postscript file per page (along with trying to do a Find after you're done). AWGS 1.1 checks the printer type and prints multiple pages at a time if printing to a LaserWriter (but still does 1 page at a time if you're printing to an ImageWriter).
