apsfilter is a magic printfilter, that saves you work to "look for" and
"use different filter programs", that convert your file into something
suitable for your printer.
apsfilter is a magic printfilter, that allows you to print different document
types "automagically" without having to convert them manually into something
which is understood by your lineprinter. Apsfilter supports the following
file and compression types: gzip, bzip, compress, freeze, pack, ASCII, BMP,
Data (data,PCL,...), English, TeX DVI, FIG, GIF, Group 3 Fax, HTML, JPEG,
Mail/News, PBM/PNM/PPM, PC Bitmap Data, PDF, Postscript(tm), raw, script
(shell,..), Text, sunraster, tiff, roff (nroff, groff, troff).
Here a "real life" example, how apsfilter makes your life easier
printing different document format, even if compressed:
lpr ascii.Z test.gif picture.tiff TeX.dvi.gz webpage.html docu.pdf
Example: lpr ascii.Z test.gif picture.tiff TeX.dvi.gz webpage.html docu.pdf
- Apsfilter first translates every document into Postscript and then pipes
it through ghostscript, if you don't have a PS printer.
- Printer Setup is done with the SETUP program.
Prerequisites: Filter programs, installed automatically by FreeBSD ports
collection, Postscript Printer or Printer supported by ghostscript, Berkeley
compatible line printer scheduler (lpd) or Line Printer Next Generation
(LPRng) which is so to say the successor.

GPL + Postcard license. I'd like to get a postcard from you, to
see who is using apsfilter and where. That would be very kind !
SETUP installs you printer by creating suitable /etc/printcap entries for
serial and parallel printers and customizes apsfilter for your system/printer.
If you are a satisfied apsfilter customer, then send mail to
apsfilter-promo@klemm.gtn.com and tell me, how apsfilter made your life easier.

write me a postcard if you use apsfilter. Request my snail mail address
