program to convert from jpg to ascii to ps

program to convert from jpg to ascii to ps

Hello,

I hope this is the right newsgroup for this kind of question: I'm searching
a program which takes a picture and creates a pagefilling postscript or pdf
file from that containing the picture as ascii art in let's say Courier 5.
At the moment I do that with asciiview/aview from aalib, gnumeric (to
calculate the lines needed) and enscript. (I like printing those on high
quality paper and hanging them to my wall.)

Hopefully you get the Idea,

Karsten
