Using System 7.0, I had a spectacular crash in MacDraw II 1.1v2.
I tried to use the print handouts (6 slides per page) option for
a set of slides, printing to a PostScript file, with background
printing turned on. (Printing the slides themselves to file worked
fine).

MacDraw crashed, apparently taking out some of the window manager,
after a dialog claiming the application "Unknown" died with error 25.
After this, windows' did not redraw properly, and the machine
crashed after I closed another application.

I duplicated the problem with no other applications running. It
seemed to happen as soon as Print Monitor launched.

I didn't try turning off extensions, or doing this with
another document. The compatability stack claims 1.1v2 is
compatible.

Can anyone repeat this?
