Printfil

This software allows character based applications to print to any Windows printer, including USB, network printers, faxmodems and PDF writers, even if it is a Dos/Windows application or a Unix/Linux app. running on a Windows PC via telnet, without changes to the original applications. You can set your application to print to an ascii file, or you can have Printfil capturing a parallel port output, automatically redirecting your print jobs to any printer, even if a printer is phisically connected to the captured port. In addition, it will allows you to: - preview printing - include logos or other images stored in separate files - colorize the text - print A4 landscape sheets instead of printing on dot-matrix 136-column printers - print to USB, GDI, Windows-only and Virtual printers installed on the Windows Control Panel - send the print jobs via fax (using any third-party fax software acting like a printer - i.e. Microsoft Fax - or a multifunction - all-in-one - printer) - print to networked printers without having to "NET USE" a LPT port - use special fonts (barcodes, for instance) as well as normal characters - exporting the print jobs in PDF format, with or without user intervention - use your own, single set of escape sequences for ALL the printers, regardless of supported emulation (or no emulation at all, as for Virtual and Windows-only printers) - and other interesting features. All this without changes to your applications. If you are developing host based applications (like Unix) and the clients are using them with a Windows Terminal Emulator, you can stop to fight with transparent-print characters and different settings for different printers. All you need is a shared file system (NFS, SCO-VisionFS, Samba and others) where to store output for your print jobs and PRINTFIL.
