Have you ever wished you could get nicely formatted output from HTML
files. Well wish no more.
HEADERS / FOOTERS
FONTS
FULL COLOR IMAGES
All these and more can adorn your beautifully formatted PostScript output,
thanks to the Amazing Web Wide World Wonder Widget. This URL presents a
form which, when filled out and submitted, fetches your HTML doc,
translates it to postscript with my wonderful formatting code, and
returns the postscript back to you.
The printing code from our announced-in-September web browser is
at the heart of this Wonder Widget. If you like the printing,
wait til you see the browser!
WAIT, There's more! The CGI URL automagically fills in the URL
field of the form with the URL you came from, so if you add the WWWWW
to you hotlist/bookmarks, it is almost like having a full featured
print command built right into your web browser.
This is my first contribution to the web at large, so there may be
problems getting it working intially. I have tested it as much as I
can, it should work, I think it works, I hope it works ...
So without further ado, the URL...
