[comp.sys.amiga.applications] Postscript to epson converter.

bhs@calmasd.Prime.COM (Bradlee Sargent) (02/21/91)

Are there any public domain programs which take a postscript file and
convert the output to print on an epson printer.  I think Gold Disk
has a commercial version.

The software that you are looking for is called Pixelscript by
Pixelations.  It is sold by Creative Computers mailorder for $89.95.  I have a
recent copy (Ver1.1g) that I don't need
since I now have a Postscript printer so you can have this for $35 US if you
send a money order to Graham Parkinson,
1643 Collingwood St, Vancouver BC CANADA V6R 3K1.
This package offers two fonts built in - Times and Roman and allows
the use of other postscript fonts.  With it you can output
postscript to any preferences graphic printer,  including nice
encapsulated postscript clipart.
Send me email if you are interested and I will ship without
delay all original disks and manual.

Hey,

Don't forget the public domain!

I have been very happy with POST 1.3 from abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov.

I am eagerly awaiting POST 1.4 from Fish Disk 446, but isca.icaen.uiowa.edu
and ux1.cso.uiuc.edu haven't updated their collection yet.

BTW, if you do decide to go the POST 1.[34] route, don't forget
to set the graphics printer dendity to 2 in "Preferences."

Regards,
Randy

Graham forgot to mention that the program is an amaterish piece of crap
and doesn't even support postscript line types.

	Why is this?  I can't say I've ever heard about this before. 
Also, can someone post when the new Post is available by FTP or mailserver
or something *-).
