Hi

Appreciate some help if possible.

I'm trying to print the PDF with a HP printserver /
netcat

I have created a PDF document using PDF::Create;

Running SCO 3.2v5.0
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.005

Converted PDF to Postscript

/usr/local/bin/pdftops /tmp/mypdf.pdf - >
/tmp/filename.ps 

lp -dhp690C -o postscript /tmp/filename.ps

Prints 2 blank pages

Is Ghostscript the alternative ?

Regards

Jim
