That's useful to know, thanks. I've been using a similar script (with GC PPC
in OS 9) to print (with caption) without processing or saving, and so far
it's been OK, but I'll look out for that, and will adapt it if necessary.
Probably without the processing and saving it's OK, since each file opens
only to print, one at a time, then closes.

That's how I just tested it this time, since I'm in X at the moment. Of
course, I didn't do any processing or saving.
