Hello,

I am using ghostpcl 1.41 on suse linux.

Is possible to generate pdf output file from pcl module file and pcl 
data file using the function macro overlay?

Example:

file module.pcl (contain macro)
file dati.pcl (contain data with escape to load macro)

# pcl6 -J"@PJL SET PAPER=A4" -PPCL5E -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite 
-sOutputFile=file.pdf  module.pcl dati.pcl

This command create file.pdf that contain only data from dati.pcl

I am trying:
# cat module.pcl dati.pcl > file.pcl
# pcl6 -J"@PJL SET PAPER=A4" -PPCL5E -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite 
-sOutputFile=file.pdf  file.pcl

This command create file.pdf that contain on first page the module and 
on second page the data.

There are an other way to operate?

Thanks.
