Ian -- I read your comprehensive instructions 2nd, right
after reading Andrew's shorter "tips" document.

I was confused by Wizi's button labeled "Create Test
File" -- it did not occur to me that Wizi would actually
create the test file on the fly.  (Why not just package
this file with the distribution?)  And then the other
steps -- opening the newly-created file with PShop,
printing from PShop -- weren't really spelled out.

I understand fully now (from both documents) that the
simpler option is the one to use (let Wizi print the
test file directly.)  I just wanted to know what that
other button was about, and why it brought up a 
"File Save" dialog.

Anyway I think I'm a lot less confused now.  Your document
is great, by the way.  It's utterly amazing to me that
Praxisoft relies on dedicated, unpaid third-parties to do this
critical work for them.
