There seems to be a lot of confusion about Gdos. To the best of my
knowledge,
all printer drivers for gdos are commercial. I have not seen any public
domain. Degas does not have printer drivers for gdos, nor does it have
any
printer fonts. Gdos uses different printer fonts for every type of
printer. 
There are pubic domain printer fonts available on the major networks.
Easy draw, timeworks, wordup, etc. all come with printer drivers
Sometimes.
additional drivers or laser drivers are an additional expense.
Timeworks came with a
fairly complete set of drivers and fonts, and is selling very cheaply
now. If you are interested in printing out superior graphics, I would
look into buying one of these programs in order to get gdos.
