I used it to send some IFF files to our laserwriter][ However, if you have Pagestream, you will have: 1) a better chance of getting the printer to print the results, as our Laserwriter has handled everything that Pagestream produces, whereas iff2ps only handles about 60% of my stuff. 2) the ability to have Pagestream create an 'object' at a specified resolution out of the IFF file which can then be rotated, resized, etc. with excellent results. ===================================================================== Kent Polk - Southwest Research Institute - kent@swrinde.nde.swri.edu "Duct Tape is like the Force...
