[comp.text] TeX Specials for PostScript

doug@byuadam.bitnet (Douglas Lynn) (01/05/88)

an appletalk network using a Kinetics bridge and the K-Spool software.
We have the TeX82 distribution from uw, with dvi2ps (version 2.0) from mit.
This claims to be able to support the inclusion of Mac produced postscript
files, but a closer look shows that the '@-special' macros in tex.ps were
written for an earlier version of Laserprep.
I need to know if there is a version of tex.ps for dvi2ps capable of supporting
included Mac postscript files prepared for use on a Laserwriter using
version 5 of the Laserprep (\av 66 def).
     
 We also have berkeley's 'gremlin' picture editor. So a gremlin-to-postscript
filter would be useful.
     
 I would appreciate any leads or information that is available on these
topics.
