Max, I "used" to have a client who used Microsoft Publisher to prepare a newsletter that I printed. Even with a PS driver and the Distiller PPD, it made a PRN file. By changing the extention to .ps, it "became" a PS file. It was the sillyist and darndest thing which I never understood. Fortunately, that client has moved on. I won't bother sharing the story about Broderbund Print Shop which ought to be banned from the face of the earth, but the results were the same.

I have a few problems following it, but that might be me... A .prn file is the windows "standard" file for a file created by the selected printer driver, for being fed to the printer. Now, as we are working with a PostScript interpreter for creating a PDF (that is Distiller...), the .prn file would have to _be_ PostScript. Maybe your adviser was mixing up "EPS" (Encapsulated PostScript) and "PS" (PostScript). Hope, this can help.
