Printing to postscript from windows

How can I generate ps files and pdf files from Word documents, under Windows?

The Windows printer "Apple Color LW 12/660 PS" produces fairly standard postscript. From control panel install a new printer, and specify this type (or one that looks reasonable if your version of windows doesn't have this driver). At some point you will specify a location for printing (often LPT1 for parallel port), specify "File". Somewhere in the advanced settings for the driver (varies with windows version) you need to specify that the postscript output should be "optimized for portability" *not* for speed.

This produces postscript files. Give them a ".ps" extension -- even if the dialog box wants to call them .prn.

You can convert to .pdf with ghostscript and gsview under windows. Or transfer to a unix system and do it there using ps2pdf.
