FAX is preferred and the number is +358-21-6375729. PostDriver is a complete PostScript printer driver for the Amiga, preferences compatible, full graphics & text support. It also likely has all the extra features you can think of, including its own preferences program. Comes with a readable 17-page manual. Price is 39$. It should be $139 :-) >If anyone knows of other drivers/solutions, I too would very much like to >know.
