Either PB/DLL or PBDk would do what you need.  PBDK might the the better
choice, since it really runs DOS executables, giving them "hooks" into
the Windows environment for printer access, font usage, etc.  With
PB/DLL, you'll probably end up with a larger re-codeing project,
although in the end you'll have a true windows application.
