2271.0. "DS3100 UWS 2.1 color screen dump to postscript" by TOWNS::BAGWILL (Zembu wakatta!) Wed Feb 14 1990 12:18

    A customer running UWS 2.1 on a DECstation 3100 wants to dump the
    screen to a QMS color PostScript printer.  The session manager "capture
    screen" only creates a black-and-white bitmap image.  How can he dump
    color?  Does UWS 2.2 do this? Thanks.

2271.1	UWS 2.2 doesn't support it	OPHION::MIKEY	Mike Yang	`Wed Feb 14 1990 13:33`	5
	No, UWS 2.2 doesn't have color Postscript screen dump support. The printscreen library doesn't support it. Perhaps someone out there knows of a separate application that provides color Postscript print screen support?
2271.2	a possible solution	HOTSHT::HABERLAND		`Wed Feb 14 1990 20:01`	6
	I know another way, is to do an "xwd" window dump and then do an "xpr" , but don't try to do postscript. "xpr" has options for different ink jet printers and plotters. Dave

	Try: decwrl::/pub/X11/contrib/pbmplus.tar.Z Extended Portable Bitmap Toolkit Distribution of 22nov89 Previous distribution 13sep89 Included are a number of programs for converting various image formats to and from portable formats; plus some tools for manipulating the portable formats. The package is broken up into four parts (five parts if you count this one, the zeroth part). First is PBM, for bitmaps (1 bit per pixel). Then there is PGM, for grayscale images. Next is PPM, for full-color images. Last, there is PNM, which does content-independent manipulations on any of the three formats. ------------------------------------ OTHER TOOLS: (most of these can be located on DECWRL or other internal archives) List of Other Image-Processing Software Utah RLE Toolkit.
