Hi there!! Sorry for answering too late, but I have been very busy.
Yes, PCL can be "easily" translated to PS. In fact, they are very similar. I haven't had any time to see the PS or PDF backends but... I already have a question. How the file parsing is made? I think that PS and PDF are using an external library. There are no similar library for PCL, so I'm afraid I have to begin from the very beginning :-D Thank you very much.
