To convert your printer output on Windows, you can use the
GNU recode tool: GNU `recode' can convert data between character
sets and usages. We have compiled GNU recode tool for the Windows
platform. You can download it from our from our ftp server
at ftp://ftp.msede.com/eloq/misc/.
To recode Eloquence printer output, you can define a printer
(in this example connected to LPT1) like shown below.
The ... specifies the path where the recode.exe program is installed.
PRINTER 1 PIPE "C:\...\Recode.exe -w LPT1: roman8:latin1"
Gunnar Klevefors (gk@cyberstore.se) added:
To get it to work on a WinNT Workstation [with networked printers
using UNC notation] you can't use backslashes. Use a definition like
below (this must be a single line):
PRINTER 17 PIPE "C:\...\Recode.exe -w //SERVER/Oki521
roman8:latin1"
