8: .OP "" options []
9: .OP "" files []
10: .SH DESCRIPTION
11: .B postdaisy
12: translates Diablo 630 daisy-wheel
13: .I files
14: into PostScript and writes the results on the
15: standard output.
16: If no
17: .I files
18: are specified, or if
19: .OP \-
20: is one of the input
21: .IR files ,
22: the standard input is read.
23: The following
24: .I options
25: are understood:
26: .TP 0.75i
27: .OP \-c num
28: Print
29: .I num
30: copies of each page.
31: By default only one copy is printed.
32: .TP
33: .OP \-f name
34: Print
35: .I files
36: using font
37: .IR name .
38: Any PostScript font can be used,
39: although the best results will only be
40: obtained with constant width fonts.
41: The default font is Courier.
42: .TP
43: .OP \-h num
44: Set the initial horizontal motion index to
45: .IR num .
46: Determines the character advance and the default
47: point size, unless the
48: .OP \-s
49: option is used.
50: The default is 12.
51: .TP
52: .OP \-m num
53: Magnify each logical page by the factor
54: .IR num .
55: Pages are scaled uniformly about the origin,
56: which is located near the upper left corner of
57: each page.
58: The default magnification is 1.0.
59: .TP
60: .OP \-n num
61: Print
62: .I num
63: logical pages on each piece of paper,
64: where
65: .I num
66: can be any positive integer.
67: By default
68: .I num
69: is set to 1.
70: .TP
71: .OP \-o list
72: Print pages whose numbers are given in the comma-separated
73: .IR list .
74: The list contains single numbers
75: .I N
76: and ranges
77: .IR N1\-\|N2 .
78: A missing
79: .I N1
80: means the lowest numbered page, a missing
81: .I N2
82: means the highest.
83: .TP
84: .OP \-p mode
85: Print
86: .I files
87: in either \*(mBportrait\fP or \*(mBlandscape\fP
88: .IR mode .
89: Only the first character of
90: .I mode
91: is significant.
92: The default
93: .I mode
94: is \*(mBportrait\fP.
95: .TP
96: .OP \-r num
97: Selects carriage return and line feed behavior.
98: If
99: .I num
100: is 1 a line feed generates a carriage return.
101: If
102: .I num
103: is 2 a carriage return generates a line feed.
104: Setting
105: .I num
106: to 3 enables both modes.
107: .TP
108: .OP \-s num
109: Use point size
110: .I num
111: instead of the default value set by the
112: initial horizontal motion index.
113: .TP
114: .OP \-v num
115: Set the initial vertical motion index to
116: .IR num .
117: The default is 8.
118: .TP
119: .OP \-x num
120: Translate the origin
121: .I num
122: inches along the positive x axis.
123: The default
124: coordinate system has the origin fixed near the
125: upper left corner of the page, with positive
126: x to the right and positive y down the page.
127: Positive
128: .I num
129: moves everything right.
130: The default offset is 0.25 inches.
131: .TP
132: .OP \-y num
133: Translate the origin
134: .I num
135: inches along the positive y axis.
136: Positive
137: .I num
138: moves text down the page.
139: The default offset is 0.25 inches.
140: .TP
141: .OP \-E name
142: Set the character encoding for text fonts to
143: .IR name .
144: Requesting
145: .I name
146: means include file
147: .MI \*(dQ/ name .enc \f1.
148: A nonexistent encoding file is silently ignored.
149: The default selects file
150: .MR \*(dQ/Default.enc .

163: .OP \-C file
164: Copy
165: .I file
166: to the output file;
167: .I file
168: must contain legitimate PostScript.
169: .TP
170: .OP \-P string
171: Include
172: .I string
173: in output file;
174: .I string
175: must be legitimate PostScript.
176: .TP
177: .OP \-R action
178: Requests special
179: .I action
180: (e.g.,
181: .MR manualfeed )
182: on a per page or global basis.
183: The
184: .I action
185: string can be given as
186: .IR request ,
187: .IM request : page\f1\|,
188: or
189: .IM request : page : file\f1\|.
190: If
191: .I page
192: is omitted or given as 0, the request
193: applies to all pages.
194: If
195: .I file
196: is omitted, the request
197: lookup is done in
198: .MR \*(dQ/ps.requests .
199: .SH DIAGNOSTICS
200: A 0 exit status is returned if
201: .I files
202: were successfully processed.
