We use PacerPrint on OpenVMS VAX 6.2 and find it pretty decent. We've had
a few problems with it since we upgraded to VMS 6.2.  Netmanage (formerly
Pacer Software) has said that they will fix the problem; but, since the
VMS product is near end of life, I'm not holding my breath. Anyway,
they've got a Web page: www.netmanage.com.  You may be able to get some
info on the product and its status there.
