I was trying to print a .pdf not a .ps file.
Someone said to type the line that works in DOS and then add |lpr - is 
this not likely to work?  How do I tell lpd to filter pdf files through 
ghostscript?

I have to do two translations before playing with printers for a while but 
will get to it in a few days.  I am about to test whether the Antiword 
0.34 that I just compiled will work on a real WORD file.  The author 
writes me that the latest version is now 0.35.
