For quite sometime I've gotten good results with letting the UV spooler
hand off to a unix script. I convert the text to postscript using
postprint, then use ps2pdf to distill the PDF. Total software cost =
$0... Great for reports, etc.
The real question is, do you want to take what you are

Andy,
its not the exact solution you describe but it may be simpler to use
from BASIC. We sell a native PDF generator for U2 (no shells, or
external programs just BASIC subroutines to call).
Have a look at www.cross.net.au/pdf.asp if you are interested.

If you have a postscript printer you could always use pdf2ps to convert to
ps and then print that. There's probably a creative way to convert from ps

As a one time setup, you can also print the PDF to the printer
using the correct windows driver
The printers are connected to the network JetDirect cards,
and some of them are old (e.g., HP 4+). I don't know how to
use cat to send data to an IP address, or I would have tried
that.
OT for the original question, but netcat [1] can do this handily.

Don't forget that UniVerse BASIC has three quote characters, the backslash
being the third. And PERFORM is more efficient than EXECUTE (depending on
flavor and/or $OPTIONS) since it doesn't set up an extra execution level. F'r

I did a little googling on the topic and found the typical assortment of

David,
We work the other direction using a PCL to PDF tool from visual software
in the UK. Works quite well.
Anyhow, we take data intended for printing (that is PCL formatted) via a

we just print PCL to our laserjets
Consider IBM's wIntegrate.
