1. To use the APPLE LASERWRITER effectively and to use the features of the postscript language, I would like to exchange views on the relative benefits of using: a) troff + some filters, possibly public domain filters b) formatters other than troff 2. Has anyone seen announcements concerning use of the Postcript language from UNIX (any version, either System III, System V, Xenix, etc.). 3. Could anyone mail me Adobe Systems Network Address?

Sun Microsystems gets their LaserWriter from Apple, and they provide an interface kit which has filters for troff, ditroff, Diablo, and plot(5) output. If you already have a LaserWriter, you can get it separately, but they charge $1800. Scott Anderson ihnp4!oddjob!kaos!sra
