Network Plotting for AutoCAD

January 4, 1993 -- CINCINNATI, OHIO -- Automation Software Consultants,
Inc. (ASCI) announces the release of Plotware Version 3.2, an AutoCAD plot
spooler for Novell's NetWare that allows plots to be processed off-line.
The Plotware batch plot server converts drawing files to plot files on an
inexpensive plot server preventing CAD station down time and allowing
non-CAD users to request plots. It then spools the plot files to the
requested plotter or printer.

Output devices may be connected to the plot server or directly to the a
server, and any number of plot servers may be used during times of peak
plotting. Plotware supports all printers and plotters supported by
AutoCAD, including devices using ADI drivers, and will hold plots being
spooled to a sheet feed printer or plotter (such as a pen plotter) until
paper is loaded, indicating the next plot and its paper size.

The qplot utility allows drawings to be queued for plotting either from the
command line, from a batch file or directly from a BASIC, C or Autolisp
program.

Version 3.2 provides support for AutoCAD release 12 and improves support
for plotting on multi-server networks.

Plotware 3.2 is available with a site license for $495, and upgrades from
version 3.0 and 3.1 are available for $75. Upgrades from earlier versions
are available for $115. Plotware version 3.2X supports plotting across
bridges and is available with a site license for $995.
