Ultrascript, a commercial program from Imagen, is a PostScript interpreter
that runs on a variety of computers and comes with output drivers for
a number of relatively dumb printers. A similar program is Freedom of the

Perhaps GhostScript can do the same thing. Could someone comment on the
capabilities of GhostScript? Is it worth porting the MS-DOS version to the
Atari ST?
