That can be done yes, using an integrated all-in-one driver. Depends on how robust it must be, and the quality of your input (if any). In a less production(factory floor) oriented solution I also use such driver solution. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
