Hi folks,

It is simple to save mma plots to disk on a unix platform by,
 for instance, using the command

 Display["file",Plot[x,{x,1,10}]]

It says in the documentation for mma that the postscript
file generated by mma "typically requires some processing before it
cab be printed or used in other programs". What sort of processing
is required in order to view or print these files? 

Your help will be greatly appreciated.
