Have you tried a2ps? It has a perl pretty printing "sheet file". I don't have any experience with perl printing specifically, but in my light usage I've found a2ps to be superior to enscript. ymmv. a2ps is also part of the redhat distribution, though I don't recall whether it is included in a default workstation installation. Hope that helps, Wayne -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
