Incidentally, I've found that the Postscript printer

with a GUI drawing package gives me chest pains, without
producing useful output, so I've just finished drawing
floorplans, elevations, sections, and started the site
plan for a new build, with all text input. (800 lines for
8 engineering drawings for submission to the local council.)
Don Lancaster wrote a couple books on PostScript. One is "A
PostScript Cookbook". Maybe the other was actually a series
of magazine articles, "PostScript as a programming
language". Very useful stuff to know.
I do some mechanical drawings in my PC board design package.
Mostly, because I know it very well.
