The postdaisy filter
translates Diablo 630 daisy-wheel
files
into PostScript and writes the results on the standard output.
If no
files
are specified, or if - is one of the input
files,
the standard input is read.
The following
options
are understood:
-cnum
Print
num
copies of each page.
By default only one copy is printed.
-fname
Print
files
using font
name.
Any PostScript font can be used,
although the best results will be
obtained only with constant-width fonts.
The default font is Courier.
-hnum
Set the initial horizontal motion index to
num.
Determines the character advance and the default point size,
unless the -s option is used.
The default is 12.
-mnum
Magnify each logical page by the factor num.
Pages are scaled uniformly about the origin,
which is located near the upper left corner of each page.
The default magnification is 1.0.
-nnum
Print
num
logical pages on each piece of paper, where
num
can be any positive integer.
By default,
num
is set to 1.
-olist
Print pages whose numbers are given in the comma-separated
list.
The list contains single numbers
N
and ranges
N1 - N2.
A missing
N1
means the lowest numbered page, a missing
N2
means the highest.
-pmode
Print
files
in either portrait or landscape
mode.
Only the first character of
mode
is significant.
The default
mode
is portrait.
-rnum
Selects carriage return and line feed behavior.
If
num
is 1, a line feed generates a carriage return.
If
num
is 2, a carriage return generates a line feed.
Setting
num
to 3 enables both modes.
-snum
Use point size
num
instead of the default value set by the
initial horizontal motion index.
-vnum
Set the initial vertical motion index to num.
The default is 8.
-xnum
Translate the origin
num
inches along the positive x axis.
The default
coordinate system has the origin fixed near the
upper left corner of the page, with positive
x to the right and positive y down the page.
Positive
num
moves everything right.
The default offset is 0.25 inches.
-ynum
Translate the origin
num
inches along the positive y axis.
Positive
num
moves text up the page.
The default offset is -0.25 inches.
