And what about Adobe's own Generic Postscript Printer Driver, then?


It's a printer driver. There's nothing special about it, in fact it's
almost never the best choice for anything. It is just the driver for a
PostScript printer with the lowest possible configuration.

Don't think the "Adobe" in ADSC means it's something exclusive to
Adobe, or that all Adobe software will follow it. It's an extra level
of function that might appear over and beyond the ability to be
printed.

So what you seem to be saying is that I can't trust any bit of software to produce useful and robust Postscript and I can't trust any other bit of software to be able to manipulate reliably any of that Postscript? So it's really all a load of futile nonsense - nothing that an ordinary man on the street like myself can get hold of is of any use whatsoever because nobody cares about the syntax or the standards?


Is there *anything* out there which will reliably produce postscript via an application's print process that I can do something useful with?
