Well, it's quite simple if you're using Sweet16 (I'm using 2.0b1).

In the "Getting Started" part of the documentation, it tells you how to 
patch the Laserwriter Driver into a printer driver (recommended name is 
SweetPrinter.) Once you have that setup, you just select SweetPrinter 
from the DC Printer control panel, do the Page Setup stuff, and then 
select Print. You can change any options you feel need to be changed and 
then click on the OK button. A postscript file will be generated and 
passed on to the Preview app in OS X. It will convert the postscript 
into a PDF and display it for you. You can then save it with whatever 
name you wish to use.

It's quick slick. I just did several files and only one is messed up and 
I assume it's because I don't have the truetype font I originally used 
in the AWGS file. I'll have to play with it some more...
