I would like to give all of you the information I have on PostDriver.

It is published by:

I found the first info. on PostDriver in a mag. together with a
fax-number. I sent a fax, and got the above info. (from Leonard
Norrgaard), together with the following:

PostDriver is compatible with AmigaDOS 2.0. If anyone encounters any
problems, contact Soft Service, and they will fix it as soon as they can.

PostDriver can print to a file directly or via the 'CMD' utility on the
'Extras' diskette. If you don't use 'CMD', you cannot cancel the output
(to a file), due to a bug in the way messages are handled between the
program and the printer driver. If you use the 'CMD', the output *can*
be cancelled. PostDriver can add extra CR characters to help transfer
the file to other filesystems.

PostDriver will support all printers with Adobe postscript. SSI said
that it *might* work with clones too, but that this had not been tested.

I forgot to ask if PostDriver support color lasers, sorry!

PostDriver costs (I might be wrong) $40+shipping and handling ($5 to Norway).

If anyone has any comments to the correctness of my information, please
email me!
If anyone has information that is not present, post it!

The reason I post this, is to collect all information in one posting,
together with some information about the company behind it. 

(I would like to say that this is my 1. posting to this newsgroup, and
my 2. to NetNews.)
