[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] print screen driver for HPGL plotters

gordon@boulder.Colorado.EDU (GORDON ALLEN R) (09/09/89)

I am looking for a driver or other software which will allow a screen dump to
an HPGL plotter.  Does anyone know of such software? and how can I obtain it
Thanks

You might look at the shareware program VGACAP.  I downloaded it from
simtel20.army.mil using ftp.  It is in the PD:<MSDOS.VGA> or PD:<MSDOS.GIF>
directory.  It consists of a TSR which saves a raw uimage and palette when a
hot key is typed, a program to convert the raw images into GIF files, and
a program to show the contents of GIF files.  An enhanced version, available
for a small fee (approx $30), will generate output on lots of devices, 
including HPGL.
