As far as we could find out, it's pretty well "roll your own" (we have since dumped the 3700 in favour of a faster (cheaper) PostScript engine).

If this is the case, your problems may be solved. -- Lyndon Nerenberg - Nexus Computing Corp. - lyndon@ncc.UUCP UUCP: {ihnp4,ubc-vision,vax135,watmath}!alberta!ncc!lyndon
