- Hi ARDI,
-
- In the past it has been mentioned that ARDI would wait until Executor
- is ported to a more advanced operating system (OS/2, Win 95), before
- implementing certain funtionality.
- I believe that *printing* was one of the areas mentioned.
-
- My question is...
-
- Will Executor (in the future) directly support Mac printer extensions
- ie. LaserWriter 8.3.3 or will Executor interface with the printer
- drivers loaded on the underlying operating system.
-
- The reason I ask, is because most publishing houses that use Macs
- are partial to the PostScript produced by a particular printer driver
- ie. LaserWriter. In fact some imposition software *only* works
- with PostScript files produced by specific versions of Mac printer
- extensions.
-
- Your thoughts?
