Message-ID: <4384@emory.mathcs.emory.edu> Date: 28 Sep 89 02:09:49 GMT Organization: Math & Computer Science, Emory University, Atlanta, GA Lines: 16 Is it possible to use xnews as a postscript -> raster file filter, to drive dot matrix printers? I'm not concerned about the details of putting the raster file in the best format for feeding the printer, but would need to vary the pixel geometry appropriately for different printers. Incidentally, besides the technical issue their could be a legal issue. NeXT apparently can't allow their display postscript software to be used in this way because of an agreement with Adobe. -- Ken Mandelberg | km@mathcs.emory.edu PREFERRED Emory University | {decvax,gatech}!emory!km UUCP Dept of Math and CS | km@emory.bitnet NON-DOMAIN BITNET Atlanta, GA 30322 | Phone: (404) 727-7963
