But I did an experiment: An essay written in Word was printed out using my (non postscript printer) Deskjet 500 clone. The same text was written to a file and printed from this file later on. A new printerdriver for a postscript printer was installed and the text written to a PS-file. This file was converted to PDF with GostScript and printed by Adobe Reader using the Deskjet 500 again. No one in my houshold could detect a slight difference in the three printed versions of the same text. They are EXACTLY the same! A fourth experiment will take place (but I need Joergs help again) for it must be possible to make GostScript do the printing with the non-PS printer as Joerg suggested in: "Star printer Great" or a posting like that to the List about a month ago. It would be nice if that fourth reproduction would be like the other three. Bastiaan -- Arachne V1.61, NON-COMMERCIAL copy, http://arachne.cz/
