First of all the name of the program is TeXtures. Secondly, I found
the documentation which comes with a legal copy of TeXtures (TeXbook,
LaTeX book, Manual) completely sufficient for using the system.

To answer your question about printing: I successfully used two
methods to get printed output:

1) download the dvi-file to a UNIX host using binary kermit on both
   machines. Print with "lpr -d" or "dvispool". "dvi2ps" should work,
   too, even though I have not tried it.

2) download the postscript file to the other machine and use a current
   version of "maclaser", "prepfix", or what other gadgets you get a
   hold of to modify the mac postscript header file.

The first method is significantly faster than the second, because a
dvi-file is about 10-20% the size of a postscript file for the same
document.
