in reply to Printing Parcel Postage

Do you need the algorithm that calculates cost based on weight, destination etc..?

Or do you need something that tells a printer where to put the dots of ink?

Or do you need something that reads the serial input from a scale?

    I was presuming the dots of ink question since I've wondered that about things like mailing labels. I had a solution which re-wrote an rtf file but it wasn't very reliable. I think there are some PDF-writing and re-writing modules on CPAN, I was going to try those when I got back around to looking at the question... which is just un-helpful jabber I suppose, sorry.
