printer-filters 2007GPLFilters to support additional printers
This package contains filters which transfer the raw bitmap of GhostScript into the protocol of some additional printer models. There are standalone filter executables which get GhostScripts bitmap output as standard input via a pipe or IJS plug-ins for GhostScript. Note: HPIJS and Gimp-Print are in separate packages.

ReportLab library creates PDF based on graphics commands without intervening steps. It's therefore extremely fast, and flexible (since you're using a full-blown programming language). Sample use cases are: * Dynamic PDF generation on the web * High-volume corporate reporting and database publishing * As embeddable print engine for other applications, including a 'report language' so that users can customize their own reports. * As 'build system' for complex documents with charts, tables and text such as management accounts, statistical reports and scientific papers * from XML to PDF in one step

tetex-dvips 3.0DistributableA DVI to PostScript converter for the TeX text formatting system
Dvips converts .dvi files produced by the TeX text formatting system (or by another processor like GFtoDVI) to PostScript(TM) format. Normally the PostScript file is sent directly to your printer. If you are installing teTeX, so that you can use the TeX text formatting system, you will also need to install tetex-dvips. In addition, you will need to install tetex-afm (for converting PostScript font description files), tetex-dvilj (for converting .dvi files to HP PCL format for printing on HP and HP compatible printers), tetex-latex (a higher level formatting package which provides an easier-to-use interface for TeX) and tetex-xdvi (for previewing .dvi files in X). If you're installing TeX and you're not an expert at it, you'll also want to install the tetex-doc package, which contains documentation for the TeX system.
tetex-latex 3.0DistributableThe LaTeX front end for the TeX text formatting system
LaTeX is a front end for the TeX text formatting system. Easier to use than TeX, LaTeX is essentially a set of TeX macros which provide convenient, predefined document formats for users. If you are installing teTeX, so that you can use the TeX text formatting system, you will also need to install tetex-latex. In addition, you will need to install tetex-afm (for converting PostScript font description files), tetex-dvilj (for converting .dvi files to HP PCL format for printing on HP and HP compatible printers), tetex-dvips (for converting .dvi files to PostScript format for printing on PostScript printers) and tetex-xdvi (for previewing .dvi files in X). If you're not an expert at TeX, you'll probably also want to install the tetex-doc package, which contains documentation for TeX.
