In reply to DeVries questions: immediately after clicking OK in the print
dialog, hold down cloverleaf+K  .  Continue holding both keys down until
a screen message appears saying "Creating PostScript file."  Cloverleaf+K
creates a file that contains everything, including the initialization 
header generated by LaserPrep.  Cloverleaf+F creates a file that does
not contain the header.

Once you have a such a file, how do you transfer it to the VAX?  Well,
a lot of good commercial solutions seem to be on the cusp of becoming
available, so the right answer is probably something like "Talk to
Bob Denny about Alisatalk, Alisa Systems, 221 E Walnut Ave Suite 230, 
Pasadena, CA 91101, 818 792-9474."  Or "Talk to Kinetic Systems, 2500
Camino Diablo, Suite 110, Walnut creek, California 94596, 415-947-0998."
Or "Talk to White Pine, 75 Route 101A, PO Box 1108, Amherst, NH 03031,
603 673-8151".  But one way is to use MacTerminal, use text file transfer,
0 character delay, 15 line delay, 

	$ create postscript.ps

SEND your file, and type CTRL-Z.  If you seems to be experiencing data loss
try SET TERMINAL/NOECHO first.
