Folks,
Does anyone have the foggiest idea how to configure and setup
a PostScript printer in an iTool so that the Print button can
send the graphic straight to the printer on a UNIX system?
Or, failing that. I know how to export the graphic to
a PostScript file that I can send to the printer. But
the PostScript is an encapsulated PostScript file, with
a bounding box and a PostScript showpage command, I guess,
since I can actually print the file. But, because it
is encapsulated PostScript, the graphic comes out in the
lower-left corner of the page, and it would be so much
nicer if it were centered. I have vague recollections of some kind
of program that would take a poorly designed file like
this and center it for you, but I can't recall the name.
Does anyone have a trick for making *centered* PostScript
output from an iTool?
Cheers,
David
