There is a firm here in Austin called  Barton Creek Software.
2222 Western Trails, Suite 106
Austin, Tx. 78745   512-441-8354

This company has just released an ANSI C postscript library.  It sells
for about $149.00 I think, and comes with source.  I was a beta tester
for it, and had a lot of input.  It is very nice.  It consists of a
collection of routines, that emit postscript code.  There is a very
complete set of ascii printing code, a full graphics and postscript
primative library, and some nice high level stuff.  There is also 
an MS-DOS format file downloader.  It uses a user supplied routine
for it's output.  a sample of some of the calls.
ps_arcto	Draw an arc
ps_circle	Draw a circle
PS_curveto	Draw a Bexier curve
ps_ellipse	Draw an elipse
ps_fill		fill the current path
ps_line		Draw line
ps_poly		Draw a polygon
ps_polycurve	Draw multiple curves (one of my suggestions)
etc. etc.
There are well over 120 functions supplied.

Cheers
Woody
