GtkLP for CUPS is a frontend for the lpr that comes with CUPS. It
is written to make it easy to use nearly all the options from CUPS
without knowing them by name. For print-admins, there is also an
pretty simple queue tool implemented.
hscolour is a small Haskell script to colourise Haskell code. It
currently has six output formats: ANSI terminal codes (optionally
XTerm-256colour codes), HTML 3.2 with font tags, HTML 4.01 with CSS,
HTML 4.01 with CSS and mouseover annotations, XHTML 1.0 with inline CSS
styling, LaTeX, and mIRC chat codes.
IJS is a relatively new initiative to improve the quality and ease
of use of inkjet printing with Ghostscript. Using IJS, you can add
new drivers, or upgrade existing ones, without recompiling Ghostscript.
All driver authors are encouraged to adapt their drivers for IJS,
and if there is an IJS driver available for your printer, it should
be your first choice.
Previous versions of this module attempted to provide a Perl interface
layer similar to the C interface of CUPS. This was fine for power users,
but most people were not looking for this type of interface.
This module has now been converted to use an object oriented paradigm
to facilitate quicker development and ease of use.
In summary, this module provides a strong base for working with PDF
files but lacks some finesse. Users should know their way around the PDF
specification.
Included in the examples directory are some example programs starting
from very simple PDF creation programs and working up. More extensive
samples are included as scripts.

Foomatic is a database-driven system for integrating free software
printer drivers with common spoolers under Unix. It supports CUPS,
LPRng, LPD, GNUlpr, Solaris LP, PPR, PDQ, CPS, and direct printing
with every free software printer driver known to us and every printer
known to work with these drivers.
ps2eps is a tool (written in Perl) to produce Encapsulated PostScript Files
(EPS/EPSF) from usual one-paged Postscript documents. It calculates correct
Bounding Boxes for those EPS files and filters some special postscript command
sequences that can produce erroneous results on printers.
TeX Live is an easy way to get up and running with the TeX document production
system. It provides a comprehensive TeX system. It includes all the major
TeX-related programs, macro packages, and fonts that are free software,
including support for many languages around the world.
TeX Live is the de-facto successor to teTeX.
TTF2PT1 is a modification of Andrew Weeks TTF2PFA True Type to Postscript
Type 3 converter. Which will convert Most True Type Fonts to and Adobe
Type 1 .pfa file. The files produced are in human readable form, which
further needs to be encrypted with the t1utilities, to work with most
software requiring type 1 fonts.
