PRINTER LANGUAGE
You would have to tell us more about your intended use in order for us to
give you anything except vague, general advice. For example, are you producing output for ordinary business purposes (correspondence, reports, &c) or proof for jobs sent to a professional printer. For the first, it is a draw. Pick either and the results will be good. For the second, most jobbers prefer receiving PostScript files. Perhaps is is of use to note that HP provides both PCL and PostScript drivers for its LaserJet series. That way, you can use the one most suited for your use or preferences/prejudices. ;-)) Either can produce excellent results; however, different users have differing preferences as to language, PCL -vs.- PS, and printer maker. -- Tom MSMVP 1998-2007 "S N" wrote in message ...
