Hello,

I would like to print a postscript file programmatically but I have not been able to figure out how to do that. Any ideas?

Regards,
Marcus
 
marcusmco,

You cannot print PostScript or Enhanced PostScript files directly from Microosft Windows. You need to use some third party components or tools to do the job. One of the smallest and reliable one is here called Print-PostScript: (Good news is its license is GNU based)

This will help you a lot. You can invoke this application using Process.Start() in your .NET application.

Another one is GhostScript. I found Print-PostScript reliable.

Hope this helps you.
