WeBWorK lets you download complete homework sets in printable (PostScript) format. Both Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer need "helper" applications in order to print or display them, however.
You can get the necessary helper applications online, for free:
PC helper apps:
- Ghostview/Ghostscript: for Windows 95 and NT, a complete package with instructions for displaying and printing PostScript.
- ResNet's Windows Software Page also has pointers to the latest Ghostscript versions and documentation.
Mac helper apps:
- MacGhostscript for both Mac powerPC's and Mac 68K machines is a complete package which will display and print postscript files.
- DropPS is a a lean, quick program for
printing to PostScript-aware printers.It is freely available from
www.barebones.com
.
- For further information see ResNet's Mac Software Page which has links to Mac Ghostscript, and DropPS or the Mathematics Mac software page
