Ron – Rendering Postscrip directly to non-PS printers is not what I was looking for. I have a postscript printer (It's my only printer on line, I took my 24pin Star off the desk a long time ago). What I wanted, and have found, is a preference PS driver so that I could make my simple text print outs from programs that don't support PS. AP is a good example. I could never print messages (LeftAmiga-P) without changing my printer to HP mode first (I have an olded NEC without autoswitching). Although it has been determined that I don't have 2.1 – instead I still have only 2.04 and never did get the ps drivers. I have now gathered the drivers that I need and all is working well. Yes there ARE shareware/PD postscript interpreters for the Amiga, and I do have POST 1.7. But the appears to be not PS printer drivers for Preference. I did find one here in the Libs., but it was from 1989 and listed as a beta version for WB1.3 systems. I've downloaded it but have not tryed it yet. Thanks for the input, though.
