Re: slow printing to .ps

[Dov Isaacs <isaacs@xxxxxxxxx>]

Per instructions we have quite often given on this list, make sure you
change the spool settings for the "Acrobat Distiller" printer instance
such that you actually spool as opposed to "printing directly to printer."
Make sure you "start printing after last page is spooled." This will make
a world of a difference to your performance.

Also make sure you apply the Acrobat 5.0.5 update if your initial installation
disk wasn't already 5.0.5 -- lot'sa bug fixes.
