One approach would be to use the ImageSaver "printer", which comes as
part of the Glue package.  ImageSaver is a printer driver that you can
install in your system folder and select with Chooser;  it accepts
QuickDraw printer instructions from your application and simply writes
them to a disk file.  The resulting file of QuickDraw PICTs can be
sent, and then viewed or hardcopied with Glue utilities.  [It can also
be send in a "package" via MCI Mail, if you use Desktop Express.  What's
even more fun is that you can instruct MCI Mail to laserprint a hardcopy
and deliver via overnight courier or standard snail-mail;  thus, you
can email nicely-formatted Mac output to people who don't have Macs].

I believe that the entire Glue package (including ImageSaver, and
Glue-file viewers and hardcopiers) is available for about $50 retail,
and probably less on-the-street.  Cheaper than Word 3.01, although not
free.
