[comp.periphs.printers] Looking for a2hpgl

Hi Netters,

I'm looking for a tool which can take an ASCII file and convert it to
HPGL. I prefer to have it running on  MSDOS, but VMS is also possible.

To explain it a little bit more:

I have Super Project Expert running on my PC. I also have HPGL printers
connected via a PCSA net. Unfortunately SPJ can NOT print out to these
printers. SPJ can print out to a file, but unfortunately these files are
pure ASCII without any control codes - nor is it a HPGL file.

I now look for a program to take these ASCII texts and print it on my
HPGL printers - similar to the program a2ps.
