- Is there any way to convert color 3D X windows graphics to a PostScript
- printer? I can do regular X graphics via 'xwd | xwd2ps | lp' (xwd2ps is
- a public domain utility that converts XWD to PostScript). When using 3D
- starbase graphics and you do a 'xwd' you get a blank XWD file. There
- are 3 utilities I have found in the Starbase manual, 'screenpr',
- 'pcltrans' and 'sbvtrans'. The first two convert the 3D starbase
- graphics into PCL, and the third converts the starbase to Personal
- Visualizer graphics.
-
- If someone could point the way that I could go from 3D starbase to
- either PostScript, HPGL, or XWD then I would be happy.
