>>I have now been able to duplicate your problem, Baskaran. I get the same
problem when I select

Dear Frank,

Thanks for your kind reply

I already told you that about TeX Menu --- DVIPSONE --

1.having no facility to print as postscript file
2. I could not make postscript file of page range 5--8 pages
if the whole document having 20 pages.

I have been working with YandY for the past 9 years.
Recently we purchase YandY software 2.2.8, that have lot of manual
installation comparing 2.2
Both 2.2 and 2.2.8 having the same problem of printing a postscript file
through FILE -- PRINT--
menu.

Any way I need better solution from YandY

Thanks
