Software to print .eps files under Windows XP?

Chris Wilson · 28 Nov 2013 at 13:51

I very infrequently need to print .eps files to transparent media to create printed circuit boards. I last did it using an older version of Paint Shop Pro, but its trial expired. Whilst I know I am tight, buying it to use twice a year seems a bit excessive. Is there any free software to do this under Windows? Ghostscript (or is it Ghostview?) apparently does it, but I am told it's a nightmare to install and get working. Thanks.

Can't say I've had much difficulty with Ghosty things when I've installed them. For viewing and printing, GSview seems to work OK.

You should just be able to create batch script that does something like.

Code:

print /d:\\path_to_printer %1

Stick the batch file in your sendto directory, then right click your eps and sendto printer.
