We are in the process of adding an Apple LaserWriterIIntx Postscript printer to our BSD UNIX machine. Thanks to the wonders of public-domain software we have implemented ascii->ps, dvi->ps and plot->ps filters but are having some trouble with a ditroff->ps filter. We are working with UNSW Australia's ditroff-ps package, and are having some success. The distributed code has some Apple LaserWriter specific code. When we try to use this on our Apple LaserWriterIIntx, it doesn't grok some of the prologue information, specifically something called "frametoroket". If anyone has information about where we can find an ditroff->ps filter which specifically supports the Apple LaserWriterIIntx, please let me know! Thanks! Craig --- Craig D.

We use the LWIINTX with tpscript, a ditroff-to-ps filter from comp.sources.unix, also available (a.o.) from the UUNET archive server. It works fine. -- -- ###### Jos Vos ###### Internet jos@idca.tds.philips.nl ###### -- ###### ###### UUCP ...!mcvax!philapd!jos ######
