Davis) Distribution: comp Organization: "Dept. of Physics, The Ohio State University" Lines: 18 Hi, The subject says it all: Do I need a workstation to preview ps? I have heard of people talking of 'sixel graphics' etc. I beleive that sixel graphics is supported by most dec vt330 terminals. What about regis graphics? If there is a postscript previewer available that will work with a vt3xx terminal then I would appreciate it if someone would let me know about this. I know the question of a tektronix previewer has come up several times. I guess there are none. But hasn't any one wrote a simple driver that justs draws lines etc. Forget about erasing points or worrying about fonts. I would be happy with just a line drawer!
