[comp.lang.postscript] HELP: PostScript => PaintJet XL filter ??

tenhagen@sun4 (Klaus tenHagen A ) (06/07/90)

Is there anybody out there with a PostScript to PCL converter?

PCL is the native language of the HP PaintJetXL.

I greatly appreciate any useful hint.
ftp server with some sources and stuff like that..

Thanks in advance

I believe that Arts&Letters, as well as Corel draw can do this indirectly
by importing an EPS file and then dumping it as a PCL file.  I am currently
waiting for a potential client to get back to me on this very problem.
They are using a Paintjet as a *PRINT HEAD* for a large poster printer
and are having a bit of difficulty with some aspects of it.  Of course, the
work that I wind up doing for them will be theirs, but I believe the approach
that they are using is to import into Corel Draw and then print the drawing
to the paintjet in tiling mode...
