I wish to install MacWord 5.1 in Executor for Linux 1.99q. The installing
program kept reminding me that '/' was damaged and to switch to another
disk. I gave-up on this and manually unpacked the files using unstuffit.
Word5.1 now works but printing is a problem. I have Linux setup to print
with lpr using the APS filter to handle postscript output. In
Executor/Word 5.1 printing a file results in pages of postscript commands.
Does Executor normally send print jobs to lpr? If I send output to a file
and view with ghostview I almost get what is suppose to be printed with
one exception - parts of text at the top of the page and sometimes down
the middle of the page are missing. Is printing fully functional in the
demo version of Executor?
 One final question, is it too late to purchase an educational license
for 1.99q?

Thanks for your answers!
Stephen
