[comp.windows.x] PostScript Previewers -- A Recommendation

mario@r3.cs.man.ac.uk (06/08/89)

As the subject of PostScript previewers has reared its head again, I
thought it might be useful to provide some real information...I sent
this to Sun-Spots some time ago.

I (and many others at this site) have been participating in the
Beta-test program for a PostScript previewer called "ScriptWorks" by
Harlequin Limited (full address later).  This is a full-featured
PostScript, is reliable, and above all *fast*.  It runs under both
suntools and X11.  I use it as a LaTeX previewer; handles included
Framemaker and Fig diagrams just fine.

I have also used NeWS and the RAL previewer, and it beats both hands down
for speed and accuracy.

This is a commercial product.  Copies, and more informatiom,
can be obtained (binary only) from:
	Harlequin Limited
	Barrington Hall
	Barrington
	Cambridge
	CB2 5RG
	United Kingdom

Contact Mark Parsons (mark@uk.co.harlqn, perhaps
mark%uk.co.harlqn@cs.ucl.edu from the other side of The Pond; +44-223
872522, or FAX: +44-223 872519) for more details.

The usual disclaimers apply, except that some of the people at Hq are
friends of mine.
