ABSTRACT:
A document in AFP format is converted to a document in PostScript format. Each object in an AFP file is scanned. A check is made to determine if the scanned object is appropriate. If the scanned object is not appropriate, an error message is generated. If the scanned object is appropriate, the scanned object is converted to PostScript format. The converted object to is written to a PostScript file. If the scanned object is a text object, the converted object includes text, lines, and font changes. If the scanned object is a font object, an AFP font name is mapped to a Postscript font name which is added to a list of necessary fonts in the PostScript file.
