The basic concept is that PROforma renders everything into a buffer. The details about what such a buffer should look like is configured in the driver (and possibly handled with the help of a specific bitmap driver).
The first "hardware" driver could perhaps be for the PE pic format - in memory or on disk. It would save a lot of trees during testing! <>
Please remember, PROforma exists, has existed for almost ten years now (I think). There are bitmap drivers for all common (at that time) raster layouts for printers.
I actually think (though I could be mistaken) that a pic driver also exists (bitmap driver definetely, but I think there was a pic printer driver as well).
