- There's something called ps2txt. The results are pretty ugly, but look
- better after piping through fmt. Sorry, I don't know where to get it.

- I think a better solution is to grab the psf-package. It can be used as a
- filter system for PostScript-printers and as a converter for ASCII->PostScript.
- You'll find it on several ftp-servers. The current version is psf-3.5

- Happy Linuxing and merry christmas to you all, especially to Linus for his
- great work!
