Since my poor little Plus doesn't have a printer, I've gotten in the habit
of printing PostScript to disk, then uploading the PS to one of our unix
boxes and using macps to print it.

Last week, my copy of ATM and the Plus Pack (thanks, MacConnection!) got here,
and now I notice that my PostScript files are *huge*, i.e. an expansion
in some cases from 30-40k to 340-390k.

Is this because ATM is including the outline fonts from the system folder?
Is there any way to suppress this? Should I just say "to hell with it" and
buy a DeskWriter?
