ST does not require X and does not print itself. I have implemented a simple demo using GD that uses ST to render text to PNG images without ever touching X (it's available in the sample code directory of the ST source distribution). There is nothing restricting a print engine using ST from outputing PostScript, PCL or a raster file format - ST will support both outline and bitmap output at any resolution you can specify. -Alan Coopersmith- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Microsystems, Inc. - Software Systems Group Cust.
