Is there a shareware or public domain program which allows you to dump a VGA screen on a PC to a PostScript file? Thanks.... -- Adam Porter: Assistant SysAdmin, NEC Research Institute, Princeton NJ adam@research.nec.com {...}!princeton!necserve!adam C:\> alp

Thanks.... > -- > Adam Porter: Assistant SysAdmin, NEC Research Institute, Princeton NJ > adam@research.nec.com {...}!princeton!necserve!adam C:\> alp I don't know of any shareware or public domain ones; but Screen-to-Postscript (SCRtoPS) comes close, it's priced at $49.95+sh/hand. It's a TSR that takes up only about 10K of memory and can capture text and graphics screens, send the Encapsulated postscript output to a file or to the serial/parallel ports. Text is captured in text mode and printed using the Courier font, and line/box characters are printed. Many SuperVGA graphics modes are supported. It converts to grayscale. It's available from Offe Enterprises, 708-357-6679. I believe a post-processing program is available now for additional cost that will let you create an EPS file that shows forground/background colors in text screens as different shades of background gray and foreground thicknesses with a user-selectable mapping of the colors to these.
