I would be very interested in reading more information about either
T-Script or the French Postscript emulator (Graphix??) which was
mentioned in a recent posting.  I heard that Imagen have ceased
supporting Ultrascript for the ST.  Can anyone give more info on this? 
What exactly does 'ceased supporting' mean?  Will the program still be
sold, but not upgraded?

In the UK, the only official way to get Postscript emulation for the ST
is to buy the desktop publishing package Fleet St Publisher v3, and even
then there is something about the program which is incomplete (it might
be the range of fonts - I'm not sure).

All info appreciated.
