- Hi there.
-
- This is a bit of a toughy and I have no idea whether it
- has/could be done. Is there available, or is anyone thinking of
- writing, a dvi2[printer] driver which would call ghostscript to
- interpret any ps or eps figures embedded in the dvi file? What I am
- envisaging is using gs only to interpret those parts which require
- interpreting, rather than using dvips->gs->printer for a whole dvi file
- (can be very time consuming on a 386SX!)
-
- Any help welcomed...
- Conor
