Recently, I read in this newsgroup that if you install the Laserwriter
drivers and begin to print in Appleworks GS, if you press Open-Apple-F,
then all the instruction chain normally sent out to the printer will be
saved in a file called POSTSCRIPT.GS## in the Drivers folder.

My question is...what do you DO with it?

Can the file created this way be xmodemed into a Macintosh, say?

I would like to know, because my local Rent-a-Mac Laser Print Shop
has a modem on one of its machines. And if this postscript file is
something whose content is computer-independent, then I could prepare
documents at home on my GS, blast them over through the modem, and then
walk over to the shop and laser print them.
