Sure, and I might want one of those virtual printers too, but one of the things I want with the images is to see exactly how the application generated postscript gets rendered and I don't want to get the pdf rendering involved in the equation and confusing things :-). > Would creating a print queue and setting that printer queue to print > to file work for you? I don't know - that's the sorta stuff that starts turning my brain to mush :-). Are there some specific commands to do that sorta thing? What I really want is for the printer spooling system to arrange to send postscript to a script I can write that invokes the appropriate ghostscript command and arranges for the images to wind up in the directory where I want them.
