Well there may be a couple of things. 
If it is complete in that LaserPrep is stuck on the beginning
then you might be halfway there. 

BUT the real point I wanted to say is that %!PS-Adobe-1.0
is a bad line to stick on the front unless the file is REALLY
encapsulated PostScript and can be reversed by transript's reversing
filter. I doubt if this stuff can so the line should
read %!
That tells the spooler it is PostScript but not to try to reverse it.
Also, other applications I have seen around use this line carelessly
and it causes spooled printer users much grief.
