[comp.text] PostScript to Raster/Bitmap conversion

dl2p+@andrew.cmu.edu (Douglas Allen Luce) (11/20/87)

Does anyone know of a program that will take PostScript source and translate
it into a rasterized or bitmapped (or any other) format?  It would be nice if
such a thing were in the public domain...

Or alternatively, can I create an image in a LaserWriter (or other Postscript
printer) and then read it back over the communications line?  (I realize that
this may be too slow to be really practical.)
