It lets you type in commands, look at the stack, browse dictionaries (!) and preview output, but the printer is doing all the work. Apparently, they got Adobe to add rasterization hooks to the language, so they dump bitmaps down the serial line (ugh). It is NOT a PostScript interpreter. Steve -- Stephen J.
