pyPRN2PDF

In the eventuality that you are working with GWBasic programs or old DOS applications that contain Epson-specific escape sequences – ESC/P – and want to print them, you need to have a specific printer. Then again, if you do not have or can find the printer on the market, then do not fret as you have another viable solution, namely a specialized converter.
pyPRN2PDF is a dedicated tool that helps you convert files with old outputs, compatible with dot-matrix printers, to PDF. Not only does it emulate print codes you need for your documents conversion, but also allows you to access several extra features. According to the developer, the Python command enables the UTF-8 support as well as the landscape and portrait mode. Moreover, it enables the support for printing borders.
The utility can come in handy in a wide variety of personal and professional settings that may use DOS apps. As you probably know, since around 2014 very few printers – and this includes the ones manufactured by Epson – use the aforementioned printer control language. Instead, most printers out there opted for a page description language, namely PostScript or PCL. Regardless of the language used by the modern printers, they use proprietary protocols such as Hardware Code Pages.
