> PGRAPH is a library of C functions designed to allow you to print
> graphics as easily as you can display them on the screen of your IBM
> PC or compatible system. It provides a BGI-like (Borland Graphics
> Interface) to your printer.

> PGRAPH is a library of graphics routines, similar to those provided
> by Borland in GRAPHICS.LIB. As such, it is a programmer's toolkit,
> and is not designed for the end-user. It allows you to print any
> graphic image, including Borland's stroked fonts, on a wide range of
> printers.
>
> These functions take the same number and type of parameters as the
> Borland functions, so that it is a simple matter to "redirect"
> graphics output from the screen to your printer.
