Subject: X-to Postscript Conversion
Status: R

On systems that support display postscript under MOTIF, X or Nextstep, you
can use the systems utilities to do the conversion.  On an IBM RISC System
6000, the commands involved are xwd, xprn and xbit.  These commands
allow you to pick a window, decide via parameters if you want borders, full
color or reverse video and then let you pipe the output to a file for
printing.  The output options are bitmap, postscript or rgb.

There are similar commands on the NEXT computer, HP running Display Postcript
and Apple AUX.
