Mike,
Add me to the mailing list for DIFAX.
Done.
My solution to this problem is to ftp the products from Unisys's ftp server and use a graphics utility to convert to Postscript. This file will then be printed to a 11x17 printer. This software effort has begun but Unisys's .pcx format files seem to be incompatable with the pbmplus pcx conversion program.
This has been reported and fixed by others: Contact Harry Edmon: harry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or Don Schleede at SUNY Brockport: don@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
From: Don Schleede <don@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Mitch, By the way, I just saw Dave Fulkers Message about Difax. Since we are getting Difax already on the internet, I wrote a program that takes PCX files,a nd converts them to the same format for the d100 printer. So our maps are printed on the d100. However, the d100 is connected to a unix machine."
Xv does read these files however. Do you know of anyone else using Unisys's DIFAX products? Thanks
