I would like to save my WinWord's dicument in a
postscript file.

I know that I must select "print" and save
as a print file.

But I haven't got a printer and I have no acces to this
selection.

How can I simulate that I have got a printer?

Thanks in advance

    Ok, First, you also need the file called TOOLBOX.DLL.  Put it and the
Dr. Watson file in your Windows directory.  Edit your win.ini and add
DRWATSON.EXE to the load= line.  That's it.  The DLL may be in a file called
WW0440.EXE (or ZIP).

Before you slap the handcuffs on this individual:

a) There are documented instances of computers being shipped with 
   legitimately pre-installed copies of Windows that did not include Windows
   manual(s) in the shipment of the computer.

b) If Microsoft site-licenses or sells multiple copies of Windows to an 
   organization, it is possible that the number of manuals may not be 
   equal to the number of installed copies of Windows.

c) Did you ever lose a manual?

d) FYI - OEM versions of Windows (and MS-DOS) do not have the hologram on
   the manual.

For millions of people floating around in the world MS Windows apps and Dos

	That's where Word has calculated that a Break 'belongs'.  To get rid
of it, insert a break ABOVE it wherever you feel it's appropriate.  I'm not

Okay, here goes. It seems this questions pops up in every newsgroup I
   read. There is a general sound utility called SOX that converts
   between an impressive array of formats, including AU and WAV (and
   VOC and SND and...). It runs on several platforms; the source has
   been posted some time ago on alt.sources. There is a compiled,
   ready-to-use DOS version at garbo.uwasa.fi, file
   pc/sound/sox4d.zip. It works really well.

No, I don't owe SOX anything except a lot of satisfaction. SOX is
   maintained by Lance Norskog (thinman@netcom.com - hope the address
   is still right) to whom I bow. Try the program out, and if you need
   more info, contact Lance (but don't flood him with mail either :-)

Subject: What did I break?
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 1992 20:05:28 GMT



In an effort to avoid spending 10 minutes watching the disc light while
I simply try to print a large raster, I tried experimenting with banding
the output, since what passes for documentation in the MS world
implies that the system doesn't try so annoyingly hard to be `helpful'
in that situation:-).

However, code which previsouly worked now doesn't, in particular, when
I call the NEXTBAND printer escape, I get a
`Null Selector (Read)'
fault, with
'Invalid handle passed to KERNEL GLOBALHANDLE+000c'
reported as the last error.

The question is, which handle, and why?  The printer device context is
unchanged from the previous, non-banding code, which worked perfectly.
There don't appear to be any other handles either used by me or required
from me...  so does anyone know what causes this?

[All this running 3.1 in enhanced mode, if that makes a difference
to your reply...]

Hi,
	I'm setting the top and bottom margins in Word for windows 2 to 3.0 cm.
	The problem is when I print the top margin comes out 4.1 cm and the 
	bottom is only 2.5 cm!

	My set up is:
		Windows 3.1 (installed over the top of 3.0)
		Word for Windows 2.0
		Epson LQ-550 24 pin printer ( using LQ-850 driver )
		A4 size paper set to tractor feed.
		True type fonts.

	Windows 3.0 or 3.1 did not have a driver for a LQ-550, but the
	printer manual said to use a LQ-850 driver. I've tried to update
	the driver (LQ-850) from windows 3.1 but it is not supplied any 
	more. Should I be using a different driver? There is no problem
	with the page length, the margins just come out wrong. I can't 
	remember having this problem when I was running Word for windows
	2 with Windows 3.0. This is driving me crazy, any help or advice 
	you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

							Thanks in advance

Okay, you have a good point.  With a little training and a smooth OS,
anyone should be able to benefit from simple multi-tasking such as background
printing.  But when I think of multi-tasking, I think of the way *I*
do multi-tasking:  program editor in a window, Designer modifying a
WinWord illustration while the compiler crunches away in the background,
et cetera ad nauseum.  To an experienced user, it's a natural way of working.
But to a novice who barely knows a mouse from a menu, it's just too
intimidating.

I agree that background printing is essential.  But not many people
need or want the power to have umpteen different programs running at
once the way I usually do.  Hardware requirements should be scaled accordingly.
