Dear Steve,=20 You are a wizard! cupsfilter really works. "cupsfilter test.txt | lpr -P ps" printed a fine Cyrillic page for me. It seems that cupsfilter requires CUPS to be installed but it does not have to be running. I can live with that. I can probably use cupsfilter as a filter in printcap combining it with gs, to emulate a line printer. Thank you ever so much! --=20 Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2:5005/49@fidonet http://vas.tomsk.ru/ --yudcn1FV7Hsu/q59 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJesp/BAAoJEA2k8lmbXsY0GfgIAIbg9L3ykgDStDD5AsQ2BJYJ RLl8Mb9De/srMh2pEAexFrhTLMy1RSqxPC//DBqGWUZ4Xc6AmCvgYNNoU2J1mtLF 0+3HOz8qayvT0BLqZrus7J4KEnS6gXviz560O4ZWF0RnRKMVhLsPE5HBbe/iaxW/ 4SQQh2+MGqiNu7Io3eNh7xfp/+K3hheVf41PBNNIc5QYygppYTjl3Mjnl2GMQYv6 FiVfcIQqul7HLfJXHaaO+wEBsLKBUplm6Q5nrVGQinwQ65POgj7uMiFoZI72fTEV RYg8keGJx/6fgLspSi0rvsbhTJT9VzmD0pKCELzEFEPdZcGbdmeb5Yb8rF4R03w= =/RoV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --yudcn1FV7Hsu/q59--
