- Can anyone suggest a method for transferring a Postscript file from
- a Mac IIci to a Unix system, preferably by serial (modem) connection?
- I have the PS output of a WriteNow file on my Mac, and I want to
- transfer it to a Unix system where it can be printed on a PS printer.
- The Unix system has xmodem and kermit, but not zmodem apparently.
- I was unable to transfer the raw file using either xmodem or kermit.
- However I was able to uuencode the file with UUTool, then transfer it
- with kermit, but the resulting uudecoded file seemed to be mostly garbage.
- Please help. Thanks.
