From: RSanders@DENVER.ARPA Is anyone out there willing to comment their use of the Apple Laserwriter with Transcript? (Transcript is the troff-to-Postscript software sold by Adobe). We are looking at getting a second laser printer, because our Imagen 8/300 is maxed out, and the Laserwriter/Transcript combo costs about 1/2 of a similarly equipped 8/300. One particular need I am struggling with on our 8/300 is complex graphics output (~100k vectors/page) from programs making CalComp plotter calls (almost have that one licked) and emitting Tektronix 4014 hi-res plot codes. Has anyone done something like this for the Laserwriter? -- Rex

From: Scott Burris <burris@UCLA-LOCUS.ARPA> I'm currently working on bringing up Transcript to work with the first of 7 LaserWriters we are getting here at UCLA Computer Science. I should have some comments about the task in about a week or so. We currently have 2 Imagens (the wet process/ 240 DPI creatures). @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Scott L.
