I've written a printer graphics library which makes it as easy to print
a graphic image as it is to display it on the screen. The library
consists of a set of functions which parallel those available in the
.BGI GRAPHICS.LIB which comes with Turbo C. For example, there is
p_initgraph, p_circle, p_outtextxy, etc. All of these take the same
parameters as the .BGI graphics functions, and in the same order.

The library functions can be used to output to a file, or directly to
the printer. Included with the library are three printer drivers
(LaserJet, Epson LX-400, and Star NX-10). Also included is a utility
which allows the user to create his own printer drivers.

The package includes libraries for both Microsift C (v5.10) and Turbo C.

The package is available from both SIMTEL and uwasa.fi -- get PGRPH101.ZIP

I'm happy to field any comments/queries about the package in this
newsgroup, or via email.
