dblatex can produce DVI: http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/.
That sounds like a most interesting approach since it transforms to latex. The dvi, PostScript and PDF results are then produced from that latex source using native latex, dvips, etc. tools which I am familiar with. Has anybody compared dblatex results for PostScript and PDF to what you get with a FOP-based approach? (I will obviously be doing that comparison myself when I get a chance, but I am curious about what other's comparisons have shown as well.)
FOP has a PostScript renderer, but I have never tried it: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/1.0/output.html#ps
Thanks for that reference and all the other valuable advice you have given to help PLplot make a better choice for its backend tools. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
