Dear PostScript-printing friends,
I have updated my apsfilter-HOWTO for SME 5.6 and packaged the latest
apsfilter into an RPM. For those unfamiliar with apsfilter, apsfilter and
ghostscript will let you print text, PDF and PostScript to
{non-,}PostScript printers with a simple 'lpr' command. It greatly
simplifies printing from the command line and from applications on the SME
server.
My personal favorite use of apsfilter and ghostscript is to transparently
serve my non-PostScript-printer as a pseudo-PostScript-printer to my
(Classic) MacOS client, which doesn't have a native driver for the
printer.
I'll leave it to your own imaginations to come up with other uses
(printing receiving fax server, anyone?).
Please find the HOWTO, plus links to the RPM and SRPM, at

Cheers,
Robert
