Sorry I misunderstood your message the first time--you want to print plain text from dos/Windows. I checked my 2.2.1 cd, live file system, and it seems there is no longer a plain text version of the handbook there. Nor is there one resulting from installation. Thus without converting either the latin1 version or the postscript version, it would seem difficult to get a plain text version to dos/ Windows for printing--or even a plain text version that can be printed from FreeBSD.
