HI Does anyone know of a postscript -> Xerox filter? If not, is there a way to get a troff file into Xerox format?

They've been marketing a Ventura to 9700 conversion program through Xerox, which transforms a 4045 print file to a 9700 file. My company is interested in the latter program, so I've started to explore the possibility of using it. The VP to 9700 program isn't cheap ($2,500), and I doubt that the PostScript conversion program will be either. If anyone wants more info about who to contact at Xerox, send e-mail to my BITNET address. Jonathan Lavigne Research Libraries Group Stanford University BL.JPL@RLG.STANFORD.EDU

Boy could I use this the other way (postscript==>9700)!! I think what is needed for this is an Interpress<==>postscript converter. Anybody got one :-) !! -- ====================== Terry Lalonde Usenet: ...!uunet!mitel!lalonde ======================

I understand that the 9700 or more correctly 9790 use the XEROX Interpress language which is almost as capable as postscript (I said almost as this is a postscript group and I don't won't to start a war I would probably lose). -- ====================== Terry Lalonde Usenet: ...!uunet!mitel!lalonde ======================
