Hermes Vanguard 1219 to run on PC ?
Ive got a Hermes Vanguard 1219 with the old controller box, with font cartridges, and hooked up to a 486 pc to load the data to controller, Im trying to figure out how to by pass the old controller, and run the whole thing from a XP or Linux computer.
Ive checked into upgrading it from a couple sources 1500 and up .. looking to do it my self for a whole lot less .. any one here done this ? also looking for open source engraving software that will run on linux or XP
Thanx in Advance

Hermes engraver conversion
I'll be watching to see what you find out about this. I have the same situation with an H Square engraving table. Bad controller. There has to be a way to do this I'm sure. 2000.00 is what they want for mine. Good luck. LL
