Publisher's description

From Nick Zitzmann :

Do you remember how you could drag and drop files from the Finder to a printer icon back in Systems 7.5 through 9.x, and they would be printed? Ever wonder where that feature went in Mac OS X?

DropPrint is a small, multi-purpose print tool for Mac OS X. It uses various Macintosh technologies (both Carbon and Cocoa) to implement drag-and-drop, command line, and service-based printing of printable document files (e.g. word processing and spreadsheet files), PostScript files, PDF files, and text clippings. DropPrint makes batch print jobs quick and easy, and allows you to print text in applications that don't even have a Print command, or just print the text from a selection that you want to print.

Features:

Files are printed immediately (ie. no Print dialog box) in applications that support this feature, ie. AppleWorks and OS X 10.2's TextEdit
Can be instructed to print files or open the Print Manager from a Dock sub-menu
Sends PDF files directly to printers in OS X 10.2 and later; no interpreter required
Sends PostScript files directly to PostScript printers on TCP/IP and AppleTalk networks
Supports two byte file names
Prints documents from the command line
Prints text clippings, including stylized text
Adds printing services to your Services menu
Adds easy printing hotkeys to applications that support services for easy printing of text in many applications

What's new in this version:

PostScript forwarding now forwards "plt" (plotter) files.
Added PostScript forwarding over AppleTalk.
More minor optimizations.
