You can print text by imaging it on a page (which is how the high level routines work ) but it does not stream (you have to create/image the entire page before it gets printed!) There is a DEFINATE need for Apple to continue to support the low level printing routines OR at least give us a better interface for print streaming (which is what is really needed!). -- +--------------------------------------------------+ Leonard Rosenthol | GEnie : MACgician Lazerware, inc. | MacNet: MACgician UUCP: svc@well.UUCP | ALink : D0025
