Hi, Thanks for all the answers. My main purpose is to print on Windows systems (98,2000,XP) and permit to print pages of 1/3 of a letter height, and make the printer to stop at that point (in dot matrix printers). When I have a PDF with that paper size and send it to print from Acrobat, it prints and stops perfect (in Win98, I have to create a custom form consisting of that paper size). The problem is that PDF files have to be handled by external applications, or non-free drivers.
Based on all this, I have been investigating about postscript files. I realize that printers do handle this language, so I think if I have a .ps file and send it directly to the printer, it should do the job, right? (this is certainly a question) If the answer is True, no matter in what platform I am, if I send the same .ps to the printer, it should print the same result. And if all of these is true, then, my problem reduces to generate the .ps file. Comments please Daniel -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
