7129.0. "Converting Text to PCL or HPGL ?" by PADKOA::COSTEUX (Le Plat Pays qui est le mien...) Tue Mar 25 1997 11:26

    Is there a way (a tool) to convert Text files (not PS ones) to either
    PCL or HPGL files ?
    
    Thanks for comment.

	You may wish to answer the questions in reply 2255.1 in HUMANE::ANSI_PRINTING. One additional observation: If you are really talking about text files that contain only ASCII characters, you don't need to worry about doing any conversion. Just send the text file to the printer and it will print. If you are not talking about only ASCII characters, you should describe in more detail what kind of files you have.
