print to pdf (OS3.9)
« on: April 22, 2010, 01:29:18 PM »
I want print documents (and graphics) from AmigaWriter (and for example ImageFX) to pdf. I know I can convert PS to PDF by Ghostscript.
But how I can print to PS in OS 3.9? I added Postscript printer in Devs:Printers and what next?

Another thing is it possible by TurboPrint? How? But I prefer system solution as above.
Amiga 2000 2 MB Chip ECS, Blizzard 2060/60 MHz 128 MB Fast, Picasso II+, Deneb USB, 160 GB & DVD-RW / OS 3.9
Amiga 1200, Blizzard PPC 233/040 256 MB Fast, BVision / OS4.0, OS3.9,  MOS 1.45

You know about the shell command cmd, do you? If you select your postscript printer to print on a parallel or serial line, you can redirect that output to a file using cmd. I am not sure if there is a better way on 3.9 but in 4.1 you can avoid CMD by using the "printtofile" device.

I have never used Turboprint so I can“t comment on that.

You could use our EasyGS program:

You will need Ghostscript installed also:
