For more information on PCL and PostScript Converters, download the datasheet or contact Lincoln & Co. Sales at sales@lincolnco.com or (978) 367-3573. PCL and PostScript Converters are also available in the form of an easily integrated COM object.

This software allows developers to interface from Visual Basic, C/C++, Java and any other compiled programming or scripting language that supports COM objects. With the COM object, file conversions can be done consecutively or simultaneously. Consecutive conversions take place in a background thread and allow the user interface to remain unblocked during the conversion process. Consecutive conversions also let you abort the conversion if desired. Simultaneous conversions are single thread and require the user to wait for the conversion to finish before performing any other task.

Key Features Unique to the COM object Include: Converts PostScript Level 2, PCL5e, PCL5c, and HP-GL/2 files to image formats. Conforms to Microsoft COM interface specifications. Runs on Windows 95, 98, NT4, and 2000. Being tested with Windows XP. Output formats are TIFF Group 3 (1D & 2D), TIFF Group 4, Color TIFF, CADDY, binary, and JPEG.
