As you suspected, this is obviously not an option, neither for the .doc nor for the .pdf files, since those are standardized forms, and they are all supposed to look the same. I can't just reduce these documents to ascii, and print them, since the resulting piece of paper would not look as expected. > Sometimes "pdftotext -raw" works better.

I need to edit the form, and print the resulting file, but with all the Postscript magic still working. -- CYa, Mario | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> | Get my public key via finger mlang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44 _______________________________________________ Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
