If you need any other information about my computer, please let > me know. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook85.html#printing:textfilter (the handbook example) shows how. Using the "rattan" example you mentioned, if you have a filter for your printer available on disk (for purpose of discussion, lets say it's in /usr/local/libexec/myfilter), you would modify the line starting with ":if=" to read ":if=/usr/local/libexec/myfilter:" Once that's done, continue with the "Trying It Out" section in the handbook.
