[comp.graphics] NAPLPS to PostScript

bkc@sun.soe.clarkson.edu (Brad Clements) (06/09/88)

I'm looking for a NAPLPS to PostScript converter. If anyone
knows of one would you please let me know how to get it.

Also, I'm looking for general information on the NAPLPS file format.
I have several NAPLPS files that I will need to print on a regular basis
but I can't find any information on the format of NAPLPS itself.

Thanks

NAPLPS is a National Bureau of Standards item -- WRITE THEM. They'd love
to send you all the goodies.

Contact ANSI (American National Standards Institute) in New York.
NAPLPS is an ANSI standard (I forget the number, perhaps X3.110?)
and you can purchase the definitive spec for it from them.
