Subject: Is this a PostScript file?

The text below was produced by MicroSoft Works word processor, with
chosen printer Apple Laserwriter II with down-loadable fonts.  The file
was printed to disk on the PC, and then uploaded to the UNIX box at
work.  The file will not print on the Laserwriter, nor will ULTRIX's
previewer understand it.  I looked at a book on PostScript and cannot
find any commands like the ones in the file.

Does anyone understand what this thing is and what should be done to
make it work?
