PRINTER/PLOTTER BGI DRIVERS FOR TURBO C/PASCAL

[disclaimer: I use this product 
             it works as advertised
             I have have no interest in the company.
             This is their press release....]

GRAF/DRIVE PLUS allows Turbo C and Turbo Pascal graphics programs
to produce output on printers and plotters.

     GRAF/DRIVE PLUS is unique in that it provides device
drivers for Borland's built-in graphics library instead of
implementing a separate set of graphics commands.  This
approach ensures a high degree of compatibility with
existing screen graphics programs.  Unlike many products
that provide graphics device independence, GRAF/DRIVE PLUS
is not permanently memory resident, and will be licensed to
developers without distribution royalties.

     Turbo C and Turbo Pascal have a built-in graphics li-
brary of over 70 functions, and support a wide range of CRTs
via Borland Graphics Interface (BGI) drivers.  GRAF/DRIVE
PLUS provides additional BGI-compatible drivers for PostScript
printers, Hewlett-Packard LaserJet, Epson FX80, and Epson LQ1500
printers, as

well as HP7470A/7475A pen plotters.  BGI compatability means
that a developer can often 'port' his/her Turbo screen
graphics program to a hard copy device by simply changing
the driver name reference.

     GRAF/DRIVE PLUS has a list price of $149 for a Personal
Use License (without redistribution rights) and $299 for a
Developer's License.  It requires Turbo C 2.0 or Turbo
Pascal 5.0/5.5 for the IBM-PC.

Just in case you miss my previous message:  I am about to release a 
shareware package og BGI drivers (Laserjet, matrix and HPGL). It is
being tested right now but I expect to release it in April.  The package
will come in two versions - a free set of BGI's and documentation and
a developers package which will include a configuration editor (for 
redirecting output) and full source code (assembler).
