You can save it to a file. Clear. But you can save it to prn file. What do you think you will get? Think twice! The output for that driver, exactly (AFAIK) as it would be sent to the printer. eg use a clean PostScript driver for Windows (there aren't many), and you'll get a postscript file

So I think it is more important to support US keyboard (@ swapped) than cope with AltGr. (I have AltGr and I have never use it.) You might not, people using (say) French keyboards will use it all the time. -- Paul Don't *WHAM* touch *WHAM* that! *WHAM*WHAM*WHAM* -- Michael J. Peterson
