[Fwd: Full Screen Sized Screen-Dumps]

Hi Bob, Some questions: Is that Fortran program running in DOS? Do you print to paper or to a file? What is your printer configuration in Ubuntu and in Dosemu? Does the small print-out show all screen content? Which screen mode/s do you use, text modes or graphics modes? EGA or VGA?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you (was in LA for week, then had a monitor failure. I tried to reproduce the problem. it did about the same thing although not exactly. Eric Auer wrote: Hi Bob, Some questions: Is that Fortran program running in DOS? The Fortran program is running in DOS. I do not print (neither text nor graphs) from inside this program - the program calculates and displays a graph on the screen.Do you print to paper or to a file? I am not sure I fully understand the question. I have a HP OfficeJet K80xi All-in-One printer. The HPLIP organization provided me with a driver and guided me thru the installation. As far as I know, everything works fine in Ubuntu 8.04. All applications programs (such as Open Office Writer etc.) work fine. From a terminal. "lp filename1.txt" and "lp filename2.jpg" both work OK. In DOS, the command "copy filename prn" works fine for text files but does not for graphics files (,jpg or .png)What is your printer configuration in Ubuntu and in Dosemu? In DOS it is a different matter. I can print text files but not .jpg files. I don't remember configuring the printer in DOS. Yes. I have a new experience to report. I entered dos (small screen) , ran the program (which produced a graph on screen) then hit PrintScreen. This saved a png file of the small screen (this is new behavior to me) then entered the full screen & hit Printscreen. This produced 3 pages of gibberish on the printer?Does the small print-out show all screen content? The program only writes to the screen in graphics (VGA) mode, 640 by 480 resolution.Which screen mode/s do you use, text modes or graphics modes? EGA or VGA? Eric

Hi Robert, > ...program calculates and displays a graph on the screen. Okay I understand more of your problem in Ubuntu now... If you use lp in Linux or copy ... prn in dosemu, the latter will basically assume that you want to print a plain text document. Lp might also support postscript and maybe PDF. However, if you hit the printscreen key in dosemu, you will just tell Gnome (of Linux) to store a screenshot of your whole screen in a PNG file... You can manually start a screenshot from the Gnome menu if you want a screenshot of only one window or of some selected area, which is a good idea for your task :-). To print the PNG, just doubleclick the file in Linux, it will open in Eye of Gnome or whatever other default graphics viewer you have configured. There you can then use the print menu item to print the PNG - often with many config options such as zoom levels and whether to print the filename at the bottom of the page etc etc. Inside pure DOS, you can also use GRAPHICS to print the current graphical screen content, using a driver built into GRAPHICS. Current support is for ESC/P, HP PCL and POSTSCRIPT. While you can potentially use the POSTSCRIPT variant inside DOSEMU, it might need some extra tuning of your DOSEMU configuration to let DOSEMU and Linux know that you (GRAPHICS) is sending already graphical data and not just plain text.

Eric: Could you please recommend a download site for GRAPHICS? I Googled it and found several but not sure which is preferred. I'm responding to this email in greater detail about the other subjects but continually get sidetracked by day-to-day items. Thanks again for your help-bob T.Hi Robert, P.S. This approach also seems worth exploring. What modifications would Imake to the config file?

Hi Robert, to find my GRAPHICS for DOS, check our list: http://www.freedos.org/freedos/software/ - base - graphics Maybe I should have mentioned the names graphpin, graph-hp and graph-ps, as graphics is just a wrapper for the tree :-) >> While you can potentially use >> the POSTSCRIPT variant inside DOSEMU, it might need >> some extra tuning of your DOSEMU configuration to let >> DOSEMU and Linux know that you (GRAPHICS) is sending >> already graphical data and not just plain text. >> > P.S.

I think .dosemurc in your home directory could contain: $_printer_options = "%s>/tmp/dosemu.ps" $_printer_command = "cat" but it is more likely that this works - default is lp, not XX: $_printer = "XX XX" This creates LPT1 and LPT2 as both printing to the Linux printer called XX, which in turn can be created as some fake printer which actually prints into a file with some suitable tweaking of your lpr / lprng / cups configuration. Actually I do not know how to tweak cups, I only tweaked one of the older server configs as far as I remember... Maybe somebody else can give a hint about tweaking :-).

Also, I have no .dosemurc anywhere on my computer (according to the command "sudo find / -iname '.dosemurc' -print". Please advise ?

Bridge network for Freedos in dosemu (linux platform)

Rate this Message:
I'm unable to get a bridge network setup working for Freedos in dosemu. If I install Freedos in qemu then networking comes right up. But in qemu, Freedos runs about 1/4 as fast.
Has anyone had luck getting Freedos to network from within dosemu? If so, how did you do it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.

Hi: I have a similar /related problem. My application program draws a full screen graph in several colors. When I hit "PRINTSCREEN", the result is a widow size dump. about 2"x3". I would like a full 8.5"x11" dump (less some small margins of course). Is this even possible? Do I need a special driver-like program?
