I heard somewhere recently (maybe it was even here - I've only been half following lang.postscript) about a dot-matrix PostScript printer. Is there any way to print PostScript on an Apple ImageWriter II ? Does anyone make a PS translator or special IW driver to do this? Is such a thing even possible? (Would it be ridiculously slow, etc...) The main benefit I think would come from such a beast is the ability to print high-res text in any point size; the current strategy prints the 200% point size at 50%, which works rather well actually but tends to limit one's choice of text sizes! (I don't think I've ever seen a 28pt screen font, for example, and 14pt is a size I would use) Thanks in advance for any advice via e-mail; if it seems that hordes of other netters have also been dying to know this very thing, I will summarize!
