Re: [hylafax-users] Hylafax cover pages (gasp!)

Hello!
In fact, I tried this already, the problem is that, using an apple laserwriter ps driver and printing into a file, the way to replace (for instance) XXXX-todays-date by todays-date using an ascii editor seems quite puzzling.

Here is what I get for "XXXX-todays-date" in a document generated using this driver with maximum portability option :

1241 529 M 
-0.324 0 (D)A 
-0.352 0 (a)A 
0.014 0 (t)A 
0.676 0 32 -0.352 0 (e      )D 
-0.014 0 (XXXX)A

-0.352 0 (e)A

I'm probably doing something wrong ?

Thanks for any idea.

Phil.

Is http://www.hylafax.org/howto/tweaking.html#ss6.2 too complicated?

The last bullet there details how to do this in Windows.  No Postscript
know-how needed, just follow the instructions.
