I think I was wrong about the nogui LCL widgetset. It should probably be able to run the unit Postscriptcanvas and require no X11. Another option would be adding postscript output to fpvectorial. It has postscript input at the moment but not output: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/fpvectorial

If you are trying to print, why do you want to use PostScriptCanvas directly? Are you targeting only UNIXes? How will you connect the generated postscript to the printer? You have your own code for that? I would recommend that you use the LCL in your project and print via the Printer object, as no
