This doesn't really seem to fit in this group but I couldn't find any
other group that it fit better in so ...

Does anyone have a good converter for DVI to PCL?  We're currently using
pk_dvilj but it doesn't handle the output of things like gtbl (the GNU
version of tbl) properly - it doesn't understand the special commands 
'pa' and 'fp'.

Also, does anyone have, or know where I can get, an explanation of the
DVI file format? (FTP sites are fine)

Thanks in advance
Michael
