The program that you are looking for is indeed available and was included with MultiplotXLNb. Although presumably written by an "amateur" it actually works rather quickly - writing a HPGL to Postscript converter is mostly just a task of converting HPGL penmoves to stroke commands. Writing a general purpose Postscript interpreter is a more complex task. What I would like to see/try is a HPPLOT: device for postscript printers. This could in principle be a lot faster than the PLT: device which works well but slowly due to all that data transfer. Re where to get HPGL2PS1.2? It was written by Rudolph Werner of Coral Gables, Florida USA. - Thanks Rudolph! Don't know any more than that - our user group here in Vancouver had it on the monthly disk. -- ****************************************************************** * Graham Parkinson - Frontier GeoSciences, Vancouver BC CANADA * * uunet Graham_Parkinson@Mindlink.UUCP * ******************************************************************
