Yes, it does. The particular thing I had in mind was a web app that currently supplies on-the-fly generated PDF files to its users. I have had a number of requests to give users the option of PS format (for various reasons which don't matter here).

pdf2ps doesn't, AFAIK, exist... and even if it did, I'm not sure I want to deal with the disk caching such a thing would require (I hate temporary files, and I don't use them unless I must).

So, despite the value of your comment, I'd still like a similar interface for creating PS or PDF files.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
