This is New-version-of-macps-prepfix in view mode; [Up]
Date: Sun 30-Oct-1989 20:10:07 From: Unknown Subject: New version of macps/prepfix (2.2) I've just posted the latest version of macps & prepfix (2.2) to comp.sources.unix and comp.sources.mac and it should also be available by anonymous ftp from sumex-aim.stanford.edu. Here is a brief Macps is a Unix program that takes an uploaded PostScript file created on a Macintosh (by typing Command-F at the LaserWriter dialog box) and includes an appropriately modified LaserPrep file so that the result can be sent to a PostScript printer from Unix. Since the Apple LaserPrep files are copyrighted, I've included a program, prepfix, that reads version 4.0 and up LaserPrep files, and edits them so that they are compatible with macps, and are even electronically mailable. CHANGES IN VERSION 2.2 Version 2.2 of macps/prepfix adds support of LaserWriter 6.0, and contains some minor bug fixes. Printing under NeXT 1.0 to the NeXT laser printer works well for LaserWriter 4.0 - 5.2 (except for the inherent problems of printing patterns at 400 dpi), but under LaserWriter 6.0, some things just don't print, and I don't know why (the exact same file prints fine on a LaserWriter).
