Re: [hylafax-users] FW: Problem with PS to fax conversion



Hi guys,

Problem seems to have been resolved by removing a lengthy style sheet from
the HTML file, as well as wrapping the HTML header properly in a "<HEAD>"
tag, before passing it to HTML2PS.

Thanx again Christiaan.

Regards
Anthony

Hi Steve,

Thanx for the thoughts, but Ghostscript cannot convert from html to ps as
far as I can see, same with enscript.

Regards
Anthony

Have you tried another tool?  I would try enscript first, but I think
even ghostscript can be coaxed into doing the conversion...
