Hi
I'm using acroread to print a pdf on a hp-ux 11 system but it only works on HP Laser printers and not on a Xerox or Kyocera, so i'm looking for a free converter for pdf to pcl or something like that. Is there anybody who knows this problem ?
Ernst.
TIA

Re: Printing pdf on non hp printers
What print spooling system are you using?
lp ?
A spooler, if so which one?
We print pdf docs all the time, but we use easyspooler to spool the output. We had to set up different escape codes for Xerox and other print venders.

Solution
acroread generates a postscript file to be send to the printer. If your printers are not postscript, that will not work.
If your printers can read pcl you can use ghostscript (gs) through acroread, something like that with the good parameters :
acroread ... file.pdf | gs ... | lp ...
Not easy, but feasible. (I use
acroread ... file.pdf | gs ...
to concatenate pdf files and it works, so that should do for pcl)
Check if gs has the drivers for Xerox or Kyocera, it would be better.
