Print to PDF (PS)
« on: May 18, 2010, 11:55:17 PM »
I'm dreaming about print from AmigaWriter or things to pdf. As I know first I must print to PS. I have OS 3.9, so I have in Devs/Printers PostScript printer and what next? Should I use CMD from Tools? Should I change tooltypes of it? I must use InitPrinter?
When I click CMD and then try to print my Ami hangs... I have never got real/virtual printer under Amiga.

Does Ghoscript 8.70 do PDF conversions?

Yes and it works good. But how can I print to PS with OS 3.9 (without TurboPrint)? How to set up Postscript printer and CMD?

Eventually how setup Turbo Print? With which Printer (TurboPrint or WB)? When I try to do something and print to file (ram:prt) it isn't PS file.

Not sure why you insist in PostScript.
Just save your document as RTF (e.g. with FinalWriter) and convert it online...

I have AmigaWriter (I think it can export to RTF). But if I have document with pictures etc. can RTF manage it?

I never had to bother with PS up to now.
What is it good for?
It's universal, and with PS printer I can print from evry soft I have.

Don't you have TP? It's definitively worth buying! Then you get the manual as well. I still have some older versions with manual - but all in German...
Can I download demo from somewere, so I can check it if it works?
