- Description:
- Apsfilter is a magic printfilter, that allows you to print different
document types "automagically" without having to convert them manually
into something which is understood by your lineprinter. Apsfilter
development started in 1993, so apsfilter is now a mature and powerful
printing solution for any flavour of Unix running lpd or LPRng as line
printer scheduler. It supports the latest ghostscript version and 3rd
party printer driver like hpijs, ijs, hpdj, pcl3 and gimp-print, to
mention some.

minor fix: apsfilter developement started one year earlier (1993). |
20 Mar 2001 15:46:10 |

update to new apsfilter version 6.1.0 all from -current has been merged after
a long testing period. See the ANNOUNCE file for the long list of bugfixes,
security, feature and code enhancements. |

one gs runtime dependency too much after adding the knobs to choose between gs
with/without X11. doesn't bump portrevision, because it doesn't bring any more
benefit for the port. |
17 Mar 2001 17:09:55 |
andreas |
merged everything from apsfilter-current see new handbook !!! update to
apsfilter 6.1.0 BETA if everything is right I'll tag and roll apsfilter 6.1.0
bumped PORTREVISION |

- bump port revision, you can select ghostscript version without X11 support
when doing interactive installation |

- bumped port revisions because of new dependencies - default in BATCH mode is
now, NOT to have X11 based utilities in port dependencies, I think this
makes apsfilter better in - running on small printservers that don't have
X11 installed - making apsfilter package more "sexy" for being placed onto
the 1st FreeBSD installation CD-ROM, since now it consumes less space !!!
- make apsfilter use the same make environment variable NO_X like in
ghostscript6 port - this enables you to build and run apsfilter even on a
small printserver, that doesn't have X installed - NO_X is even usefull
when having APSFILTER_ALL set, since then it installs all
available/supported filter utilities, that don't require X11 - the last one
needs some more fine tuning, currently I left it empty, have to think about,
whats a possible replacement that don't need X11... |

update apsfilter port - add patchsite and patchfile - fix1: correct
apsfilter version string that is echo'd in logfile when script debugging is
turned on - fix2: samba remote printing bug fixed. The exported variable
containing the windows password was spelled incorrectly. samba 2.0.7 uses
PASSWD not PASSWORD. |

- manpages were missing in ports Makefile therefore they were also missing
in package (-> PORTREVISION bump) - portlint complained about descr. line
being too long, trimmed it down to below 70 chars. |

Had to mark it broken, because patches for 5.4.2 were not created correctly on
www.apsfilter.org, after make-release script has moved from apsfilter source
to www area ... Am working on this, sorry for any inconveniances ! |

apsfilter main site moved from freefall.freebsd.org completely to
www.apsfilter.org Many thanks to the FreeBSD developer team, Jordan, WC, who
made distribution of apsfilter possible for years. Changes: - checksums
changed - Redesign concerning patches to save CVS repository space remove
patches in patches directory completely ! - use PATCHFILES in Makefile
instead, which are actually smaller changes ! |

o Synchronize with latest patch on apsfilter homepage... o Additional
"post-5.4.2 Release" features: - AppleTalk Remote printer support (via
netatalk's pap(1) utility). Experimental, please test ! - new revised
uniprint profiles from Harold Bower <HalBower@worldnet.att.net> and
additionally some new for: - Epson Stylus 800 (Monochrome) and - Epson
LQ-570/870/1070/1170 24-pin Dot-Matrix - prevent printing of an empty page
when using raw printer, default is off now. - bugfix: older gs versions (<
v6.x) doesn't support "-_", which allows more efficient read operation. The
bug prevented apsfilter to work with the older gs versions. - bugfix: hpdj
(3rd party gs driver) doesn't like the -sBitsPerPixel option. So stripp it
off, if using hpdj driver. - FAQ file cleanups - better hpdj driver defaults
for HP DJ 970 printers - some cleanups in code when printing PDF files - and
other things .... |

- new contributor Ahilan Anantha <aanantha@cs.ucsd.edu> remove outdated
information about /etc/apsfilterrc files explain new scheme in files: FAQ,
HOWTO-BUGREPORTS, template/README, template/apsfilterrc - changes for
DeskJet 970C - uses again hpdj 'unspec' driver - in SETUP driver name
hpdj_u970 introduced this special name with the 'u' to mark/flag
special handling of "unknown" printer model 970 with hpdj 'unspec' driver -
this way it's possible to add more accurate hpdj printer support with some
sanity checks until hpdj 3.x will be available. - caveat: handle above with
care, since no commandline option sanity checks are performed using the
'unspec' print model. So you have pure 'PCL3 / PLC5' ... you are on your own
But we need this, since there is no model for 970C available - New file:
doc/README.hpdj discusses the above in detail. - SETUP: printcap
configuration for raw printer: suppress formfeed |

Some bugfixes in apsfilter and SETUP Better support for hpdj driver,
especially HP DeskJet 970Cxi. * SETUP: fix bug in printer driver selection
if $PRINTER = hpdj_* when checking if gs contains driver "hpdj_XXXX" then
only grep for the pattern hpdj. XXXX is the special printer Model. hpdj
driver doesn't allow changing color depth (bpp), so ignore it * apsfilter: -
hpdj driver doesn't allow changing color depth (bpp), so ignore it - bug in
case structure, hpdj model wasn't detected "hpdj*" -> "hpdj_*" - bugfix,
when specifying no hpdj printer model, then set HPDJ_MODEL='-sModel=unspec'
- bugfix, several bugs in Class support for hpdj driver: - use only
lowercase in case structure - many -d options had to be -sXXX=YYY options
* printer list for SETUP instead of "hpdj" use "hpdj_855C" for HP DeskJet
970Cxi, so that gs is invoked with the printer model 855C. |

1st round of patches for for apsfilter-STABLE (RELENG_5) v 5.4.2 -
bin/apsfilter: - Print recode(1) output using print_raw. - Look for
`*.upp' instead of `uniprint' in print_dvi. - Take $USE_RECODE into account
when using the ascii method. - Provide default $PRINT_REDIR for non-Samba,
non-remote printers. - Default options for recode were provided twice. -
Corrected `PSUTILS' to `PS_UTILS'. - Ignoring signals instead of trapping
them with echo. - Changed to new recode invocation syntax. - SETUP: -
Disabled changing the resolution on Uniprint and PostScript printers. |
