Author from color to grayscale
diego

good morning,
first of all excuse me for my bad english...

I need to convert an HPGL file from a HP Spectrum Analyzer to pdf file: I
did it and it works.
But the pdf file has bad colors.

I use hptops.exe for making .ps file from hpgl file anf ps2pdf to make pdf
file.
Is there some parameter in ps2pdf to produce grayscale pdf from colored ps?

thanks
diego

The magic formula is gray = 0.30 red + 0.59 green + 0.11 blue
