Thank you for your support. This kind of mail is always nice to receive :-)
If you created some interesting pseudo-printers, and you think they can
be useful to other people, please feel free to send them to me. We can
think about adding a "Contrib" section to the web site where we could put
these kind of stuffs (like we could put additional filters, and so on)
Chris, Kurt, any comment?
Michael.
