I had been using the LaserPrep header file uploaded by Sigurd Meldal about a year ago (which is currently archived as info-mac/misc/laserprep-65-postscript.txt in the sumex archives). This header was left resident on a VAX system which was connected to a PostScript printer. I would simply upload my PS files (using VersaTerm Kermit), append them to this header and send it to the printer. Obviously, the new LaserPrep file is different so I need to replace the old one. Has anyone out there created a new version? I've made several attempts at editing the Prep file myself, but since I'm not fluent in PostScript this has been an exercise in futility. Any hints or suggestions would be appreciated.
