[net.micro.pc] From MS-WORD to IMAGEN 3/800

nacer@orstcs.UUCP (nacer) (04/19/86)

Have someone succeeded printing Microsoft-Word documents on an Imagen 8/300
laser printer?

The Imagen at our site is hooked up to a vax system.  It will emulate simple
text file, TEK 40?? terminal, and the DIABLO 1640.  It also supports its native
Impress language.  However Microsft-Word version 2.0 on my PC has pre-written
printer drivers for DIABLO Model 620, 630, 630API, and 630ECS only.

What I am interested in currently is being to print in BOLD, in ITALIC,
underline, and possibly change fonts.

Any hints on how to adapt one of the drivers using MS-Word CONVTPRD.EXE, or
using some UNIX filter will be appreciated.

Thanks !
