Biber is a BibTeX replacement for users of biblatex, with full Unicode support.

latex2rtf is a translator program that translates LaTeX text into the RTF format used by several textprocessors, including Microsoft Word and Word for Windows. It was written by Fernando Dorner and Andreas Granzer in a one-semester course in our department. It was later updated in another one-semester course by Friedrich Polzer and Gerhard Trisko. Ralf Schlatterbeck <ralf@zoo.priv.at> maintained and extended it until 1998. It is currently being maintained by Georg Lehner, Scott Pralh, and Wilfried Hennings

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.

p910nd is a small printer daemon intended for diskless workstations that does not spool to disk but passes the job directly to the printer.

foo2zjs is an open source printer driver for printers that use the Zenographics ZjStream wire protocol for their print data, such as the Minolta/QMS magicolor 2300 DL or Konica Minolta magicolor 2430 DL. These printers are often erroneously referred to as winprinters or GDI printers. However, Microsoft GDI only mandates the API between an application and the printer driver, not the protocol on the wire between the printer driver and the printer. In fact, ZjStream printers are raster printers which happen to use a very efficient wire protocol which was developed by Zenographics and licensed by most major printer manufacturers for at least some of their product lines. ZjStream is just one of many wire protocols that are in use today, such as Postscript, PCL, Epson, etc.

This software creates output using the PPA (printer performance architecture) protocol. This protocol is used by some HP "Windows-only" printers, including the HP Deskjet 820C series, the HP DeskJet 720 series, and the HP DeskJet 1000 series. It has been tested on all three printers, but your personal experience (positive or negative) is very much appreciated!

flpsed is a WYSIWYG PostScript annotator. flpsed can add arbitrary text lines to existing PostScript documents, but cannot remove or modify existing elements of such documents. The added lines can later be re-edited with flpsed, either interactively or via batch-processing (the latter is useful for repeatedly filling in forms). Text lines can also be imported from other documents that have been modified with flpsed. Using pdftops, which is part of xpdf, one can convert PDF documents to PostScript and then add text to them using flpsed. flpsed is thus useful for filling in forms, adding notes, etc.

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.

XPP is a graphical utility for managing printers and submitting print jobs. It interfaces with CUPS on the backend and allows the user to configure double sided printing, active tray, color adjustment, etc. It supports the command line flags of lpr as well. You will first need to configure a printer via CUPS to use XPP.
