I'm trying this again; I don't think it made it out the first time.

Is there a filter for converting Macintosh PICT format files to Versatec
raster or vector format?  Some people here are using a package on the
Macintosh that generates PICT files, and they would like to get large
plots of the output.  We have a Versatec CE3244 color plotter, but it
is attached to a network of Suns as a spooled device.  If a driver for
the Versatec exists for the Mac we could hook the plotter up directly,
but that involves a lot of manual switching and might not be acceptable
over the long term.  Any help/advice welcome; email greatly appreciated.
