	I also had a problem trying to copy postscript figures from CANVAS 2.1 into
Word and Nisus (the problem may be with CANVAS). I used the Option-Comm-C to
copy as PostScript from CANVAS and if I try to resize the file in the either
word processors, the printer doesn't print it accusing a PostScript error. I'm
going to call Deneba about it.
