- Commodore announced that version 2.1 (and 3.0) of AmigaDOS supports
- Postscript printers. The printer driver software converts ASCII to
- Postscript, converts ANSI codes (bold, underline, italics, etc) to
- Postscript, and converts screendumps to Postscript.
-
- This is not the same thing as software that would read an existing
- Postscript file to display it on the screen.
