| recommended way to print PDF files to PostScript printer? |
Brand new to apsfilter, and got it all set up. FreeBSD 4.7. A PostScript ready HP LaserJet 1200 printer. The test page printed looks GREAT. QUESTION: What's the recommended way of printing a PDF file when you have a PostScript printer? I thought I wouldn't need Ghostscript, but the only way I've found to do it for now is... pdf2ps 100009.pdf PrintPage.ps ; lpr PrintPage.ps ; rm PrintPage.ps ... which worked, but is a little off. I thought apsfilter dealt with pdf files more directly? I checked the handbook and couldn't tell what's recommended. IMPORTANT: I'd like to do do it command-line only. Not printing from X11 app. Thanks!
