- I need to write or find an existing filter that will check
- to make sure a file is color postscript before allowing it
- to be printed. Since we only have three or four applications
- that will do this I don't believe it will be difficult to
- customize the program that does the checking.
- The problem is I can't find any information on lpd or lpr
- that I can use to help me create the filter.
- The intent is to check the file on the local machine and
- then send it to the remote machine were it will be printed.
-
- We are currently running SunOS 4.1.2.
-
- Any help is appreciated.
-
- Thanks
