converts Japanese fonts in PostScript documents

Back to search · Not supplied

Description

Japanese documents are hard to print when you don't have a Japanese PostScript printer, especially the huge fonts and the required extension. Kanjips is a poor man's replacement, that can convert Japanese strings in a PostScript documents to bitmap equivalent. The quality of the result is not very good, but at least it's readable.
