It's slow, but theoretically dot-per-dot identical. A parallel port (or faster) to your PostScript printer is essential to have this fast enough to be useable. hp2pbm and its two patches are in comp.sources.misc archives. -- Chris Lewis; clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca; Phone: Canada 613 832-0541 Psroff 3.0 info: psroff-request@ferret.ocunix.on.ca Ferret list: ferret-request@ferret.ocunix.on.ca
