Will FrameMaker 7.0 files still print on my PostScript Level 1 printer

Adobe FrameMaker Frequently asked questions

Will FrameMaker 7.0 files still print on my PostScript Level 1 printer?

Adobe is unable to certify FrameMaker 7.0 software for use on PostScript Level 1 printers. These older printers are increasingly difficult to find and maintain, and do not support modern network protocols. FrameMaker 7.0 software has been tested so infrequently on PostScript Level 1 printers that these output devices are no longer supported for use with FrameMaker.
On the Macintosh and Windows platforms, you may be able to print FrameMaker 7.0 files to a PostScript Level 1 printer without any significant problems if you have the appropriate printer driver installed on your system. On the UNIX platform, there are no known issues when FrameMaker 7.0 software directly generates PostScript Level 1. If you use any Placed PDF files that contain color or transparency information that cannot be correctly rendered for PostScript Level 1, these images may not appear as expected.
