Thx a zillion. This sounds so much more simpler. I am using "Apple Laser Writer" printer driver, and have TICKED the Print-to-File option.
Does this driver support PostScript. How can I check which drivers are PostScript compliant.
Thx again. Richard.
I have a system which prints to .prn file. Is there any utility in Linux which can read the contents of the .prn file and output it to a human readable .txt format.
prn-files are actually postscript files. So simply running them thru a utility like "ps2ascii" should give you the text. Problems might arise if the particular driver that generated the prn is not postscript compliant.
