Adobe planned  for printer manufacturer to use PDF Engine few years back Finally now you start see large digital printer manufactures like Xerox is releasing color 70+ Pages Per Minute print engine support PS 3  and PDF side by side. This is new for 2013!And it is expected to increase to all ranges of printers and all vendors. Does anybody see VDP/personalization applications developed which based on accepting data stream as PDF ! I know PlanetPress and GMC now supporting PDF input data stream side by side as raw data However I still see speed , more feature and control can only acheive if the data stream is raw data e.g. Text , ASCII , EBCDIC , CSV , TAB Delimited   and XML CheersAdam.

I'm not sure how to explain this. Please pardon my code if it is bad or my terminology if it is wrong, as I'm a novice ps programmer.What I'm trying to do is draw a pattern of vertical lines, which I want to be based on a resolution of 100 dpi. If I write "72 100 div 1 scale" then I have changed the coordinate system so I have an effective horizontal resolution of 100 units per inch, is that correct? Is this the correct way to change the resolution of the coordinate system? In other words, can we really change the resolution of the user space (irrespective of the device space)? I understand that there are actually no dots in user space and dots do not actually exist until rasterization, but please pardon my use of the term dpi to mean units of the coordinate system when I refer to the user space.My goal is to render graphics that will come out accurately on a printer. Since most laser printers have a resolution that is a multiple of 100, then I reason that during rasterization lines si

I have an old (expensive) printer (no drivers for win 7) that is a postscript printer. I have a ppd file for it and two inf files for other windows os (2000, xp). The printer is networked off a 32 bit xp win server. The win 7 box(es) can't install the xp drivers because they are 32 bit. BUT. This is a postscript printer and the postscript driver software (dll's ?) in win 7 should work ok IF I can get the existing inf files adjusted to point to the ppd that I have. These are both text files and therefore the 32 bit vs 64 bit issues should not be a problem. How do I hack the inf files so that they a) refer to the ppd file I have and b) match the OS (win 7) I need to use them on? I realize this may be a naive question, so what am I missing?  Where would there be a 32/64 bit problem if there is one?

Hi,How do I create a postscript job to load postscript fonts to an Ricoh IP5000 printer?

Hi all,I have wrote a little EPS-file, which generates a number, if the EPS file is placed on every page in Indesign and print out in a PostScript file. The number changes depending of the page count of the Indesign document and increases from 1 up to 15000000 - so the number may have up to 8 digits. So far so good, the EPS works well.The problem:I want to mark the number with a thousands separator sign like a point, so the EPS delivers me the numbers in the following way:from 1 to 999 without pointfrom 1.000 to 999.999 with a point in front of the last 3 digitsfrom 1.000.000 to ......   with a point in front of the last 3 digits and 6 digits and so onI don't know how I may solve this problem.
