Re: PRINTING LOGOS

[Ray Ontko <rayo@ONTKO.COM>]

Ashish,

I can't answer all your questions, but I can answer some of them.

The .BMP file should work if you use -printer:wp.  This should
work for Win3.1 and Win95.

Based on your error messages, it looks like something isn't
configured correctly for your default Win95 printer.  Are you
able to view the .SPF file under Win95 using SQRWV.EXE?
(Use "-nolis -keep" on the command line and then use
"sqrwv file.spf" to view the file.)

The .EPS file should work only if you use -printer:ps.

You need an HPGL/2 file if you want to use -printer:hp.
Unfortunately, there aren't many pieces of software that
produce HPGL/2 files from .BMP files.  The only one I'm
aware of is something called Hijaak Pro, but I've never
used it.  [Does anyone else know of a program that does this?]

If your HP printer accepts PostScript files, use -printer:ps.

Hope this helps.
