title: Use Ghostscript to convert PCL to PostScript
body: <p>So I want to use Ghostscript  to convert files that are created in PCL format to PostScript.</p>
  
  <p>That's the gist of my problem.  I am simply trying to run it on the command line, but in the final stage it will have to be run on a lp command like
  lp -d &lt; gs something something</p>
  
  <p>GPL Ghostscript  9.00 (2010-09-14)
  I will be running this on a Solaris 10 server but I believe any Unix system should work similar.  </p>
