To print Simplified Chinese characters using a PostScript-based printer, a Simplified Chinese Solaris software application must have the Simplified Chinese Solaris xetops utility.
The xetops utility produces a bitmapped graphics printed image.
The Simplified Chinese Solaris operating environment includes the xetops utility so any system can print Simplified Chinese on a PostScript printer.
Using xetops is described in Simplified Chinese Solaris User's Guide, in the chapter "Simplified Chinese Printing Facilities," and in the xetops(1) man page.
A typical command line for printing a file named filename containing Simplified Chinese characters with or without ASCII/English characters, would be as follows:
system% pr filename | xetops | lp |
Make filename the name of the file to print. This file can contain ASCII/English characters as well as Simplified Chinese.
