Hello
The library is great. Thanks a lot
I'm new to programming and apologize in advance if my question is stupid.
The library works well when i'm testing my .pde, but when i export and p5 makes the applet, and test the html, should it work? i dont get it
thanks

no, this only works within the processing environment (and when export to application gets implemented.. in applications too!) ... applets in general are very limited as to what they are allowed to do, and doing stuff like writing to your harddrive is a big NONO when it comes to stuff (like applets) that runs inside a browser.

This is awesome. Is it possible to have a postscript equivelant of curveVertex()?

It would be, but there isn't any such functionality in the library at the moment. I've been thinking of polishing it up and adding a few niceties like that. That would basically involve a style more like beginShape / endShape.
 
But I suspect there might be a PostScript library bundled with Processing soon that will be much more closely integrated to the whole environment.

that's great. BTW - can't seem to get to your site - host unknown?

arg. it seems that the provider that I host unlekker.net on drops out of the DNS once in a while. try again, it's usually only gone for a short while.

Hi,
Great library,
One thing I'd like to point out. In your comments of your examples you write:
// http://process.unlekker.net/SimplePostscript/
 
when I think you mean:
 
// http://processing.unlekker.net/SimplePostscript/
 
Maybe that is why people thought your site was down?
Later,
Mark

Good point, I will fix the comments. Thanks for the props, however I think Allan William Martin's Illustrator library is far superior to my little hack.
 
I will be using SimplePostscript in a workshop in Lisbon (the web design is not mine) this week, to get designers working computationally with print. Will post the results if anything exciting comes out of it.
