Hello.  I am a little new and not sure where to ask, so I will ask here.
If I should ask somewhere else, please tell me where.

I need a program to convert .pcl output from a HP laser printer to any
other kind of format, preferably postscript.  The .pcl file has 
graphics codes in it which tend to confuse a program I have tried called
HIJAAK.  HIJAAK seems to ignore carriage returns, which makes it one heck
of a long line to be translated.

Does anyone have such a program for the IBM (or unix) that might do this,
or could someone tell me some of the HP graphics codes so I could attempt
myself?  Thanks a lot for your time!!
