Firstly my thanks to the following

I'm still awaiting delivery of the plotter (26th Jan I hope) but
here follows what was suggested.

Conversion S/W
--------------
My original request was to convert HP,HPGL/2 and PS (EPS) to HPRTL
on a SUN. The following s/w packages were suggested....
netpbm : many conversion tools
p3 : converts pnm files to HPRTL
hp2xx : converts HPGL 7550A to a pnm file
All compiled under 4.1.3 except hp2xx to which I'm still having problems.
General

Most agreed the plotter was very good, I hope they are correct ;-)
Regards
Jon
