<STRONG>Progress and Postscript Printing</STRONG> <A href="http://www.fast4gl.com/downloads/postscript.html">HTML version</A>. This document describes the steps to follow to produce nicely formatted reports from within your Progress application. Although the examples given are using Progress, there is nothing here that is particular to that language. The key to the process is the use of postscript. Mayura Draw produces files that are easily edited, perl provides a scripting language with the necessary capabilities and Progress is the driving application. There is no dependency on Unix, although that is all we have used. With minor changes to pdx2ps it would probably work on any platform on which perl is available.
