424.0. "Want to print PS files from a PC?" by JOKUR::BOICE () Thu Mar 06 1997 11:22

 There's a new PC-based freeware utility available to print PS files to any 
 available printer, local or network.  Prior to this, the suggestion was to 
 use Acrobat Distiller to create the PDF file, and then view the PDF file 
 using Acrobat.

 SMC people (in the office or at home) can use this utility by creating a:

    Program Item (NT 3.51)

    	New --> Program Item

    		Select a name like PS Print
    		In the program box, type S:\software\Prfile\PrFile32.exe

    	You'll then see a new icon on your Program Manager. Double click 
    	the icon, and PS Print will start.  Drag a PS file onto the 
    	application, choose a printer, and voila...

    Desktop Shortcut (Windows 95 and NT 4.0)

    	Rightclick anywhere on the desktop.
    	
    	New --> Desktop Item

    		In the Browse box, type S:\software\Prfile\PrFile32.exe

    	Select a name like PS Print, and press finish.

    	You'll then see an icon on your desktop, onto which you can drag and 
    	drop PS files from your Explorer.  Choose a printer, and voila...
