The Black Ice
Printer Drivers can convert any printable file into a variety of
formats, including CALS.
Printer Driver Overview
CALS was developed by the US Department Of Commerce with several
US government agencies and private organizations such as the
Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM). It was
designed to standardize information interchange between branches
of the military.
CALS files are used for document imaging and only store
black-and-white, 1-bit image data. CALS Type I files only store
a single image per file and the data is always compressed using
the CCITT Group 4 encoding algorithm. CALS Type II files may
store multiple images per file, the image data may be tiled, and
tiles stored as raw data or as data compressed using CCITT Group
4 encoding.
CALS support is
included in the following Black Ice printer drivers:
