ABOUT
-----
This is an ARexx script for PageStream4.
Give it a PDF file and it *tries* to place the single pages of this
PDF file on separate pages of the current PageStream document
(several pages at one).
After that you can simply print/save it as PostScript file and
view/print it with GhostScript.


DISTRIBUTION
------------
Spread it! Use it! _Write me!_


REQUIREMENTS
------------
* PageStream4 (of course!!!)
* MUI
* current version of rxMUI (Aminet! or http://web.tiscalinet.it/amiga/rxmui/)
* current version of GhostScript (Aminet!)
* current version of EpsLab (Aminet!)



INSTALLATION
------------
* extract this archive to your RAM disk
* copy the complete drawer "MUIPDFPrinter" with all files
  to your "PageStream:Scripts" path


USAGE
-----
* select "Play External Script" in PageStream and chose the script
  "MUIPDFPrinter.rexx" inside the "PageStream:Scripts/MUIPDFPrinter" drawer
* use the default setting as start and chose a PDF file
* start and look (may take a little time, depending on the PDF file)


HISTORY
-------
V0.01-V0.02 (Jul 1999 - internal)

V1.00 (01. Jan 2002 - first release)
 * rewritten the GUI of MUIPDFPrinter to use rxMUI!
   rxMUI has much more power than MUIRexx and is more class like
   developing. It's simply better and currently in development.
 * added possibility to select more than one PDF file

V1.50 (21. Jul 2002)
 * added feature of my AddTiffPreview.rexx script (Aminet)
   I wanted for the generated EPS files a TIFF preview is added
   so it also can be printed on non-postscript pinters.
   For this EpsLab (Aminet) is needed and must be installed *properly*.
