3: .SH NAME
4: .B posttek
5: \- PostScript translator for Tektronix 4014 files
6: .SH SYNOPSIS
7: \*(mBposttek\f1
8: .OP "" options []
9: .OP "" files []
10: .SH DESCRIPTION
11: .B posttek
12: translates Tektronix 4014 graphics
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 text using font
35: .IR name .
36: Any PostScript font can be used,
37: although the best results will only be
38: obtained with constant width fonts.
39: The default font is Courier.
40: .TP
41: .OP \-m num
42: Magnify each logical page by the factor
43: .IR num .
44: Pages are scaled uniformly about the origin,
45: which by default is located at the center of
46: each page.
47: The default magnification is 1.0.
48: .TP
49: .OP \-n num
50: Print
51: .I num
52: logical pages on each piece of paper,
53: where
54: .I num
55: can be any positive integer.
56: By default
57: .I num
58: is set to 1.
59: .TP
60: .OP \-o list
61: Print pages whose numbers are given in the comma-separated
62: .IR list .
63: The list contains single numbers
64: .I N
65: and ranges
66: .IR N1\-\|N2 .
67: A missing
68: .I N1
69: means the lowest numbered page, a missing
70: .I N2
71: means the highest.
72: .TP
73: .OP \-p mode
74: Print
75: .I files
76: in either \*(mBportrait\fP or \*(mBlandscape\fP
77: .IR mode .
78: Only the first character of
79: .I mode
80: is significant.
81: The default
82: .I mode
83: is \*(mBlandscape\fP.
84: .TP
85: .OP \-w num
86: Set the line width used for graphics to
87: .I num
88: points, where a point is approximately 1/72
89: of an inch.
90: By default
91: .I num
92: is set to 0 points, which forces lines to be
93: one pixel wide.
94: .TP
95: .OP \-x num
96: Translate the origin
97: .I num
98: inches along the positive x axis.
99: The default
100: coordinate system has the origin fixed at the
101: center of the page, with positive
102: x to the right and positive y up the page.
103: Positive
104: .I num
105: moves everything right.
106: The default offset is 0.0 inches.
107: .TP
108: .OP \-y num
109: Translate the origin
110: .I num
111: inches along the positive y axis.
112: Positive
113: .I num
114: moves everything up the page.
115: The default offset is 0.0.
116: .TP
117: .OP \-E name
118: Set the character encoding for text fonts to
119: .IR name .
120: Requesting
121: .I name
122: means include file
123: .MI \*(dQ/ name .enc \f1.
124: A nonexistent encoding file is silently ignored.
125: The default selects file
126: .MR \*(dQ/Default.enc .
127: .TP
128: .OP \-L file
129: Use
130: .I file
131: as the PostScript prologue.
132: .br
133: The default is
134: .MR \*(dQ/posttek.ps .
135: .PP
136: Three options allow insertion of arbitrary PostScript
137: at controlled points in the translation process:
138: .TP 0.75i
139: .OP \-C file
140: Copy
141: .I file
142: to the output file;
143: .I file
144: must contain legitimate PostScript.
145: .TP
146: .OP \-P string
147: Include.
148: .I string
149: in the output file;
150: .I string
151: must be legitimate PostScript.
152: .TP
153: .OP \-R action
154: Requests special
155: .I action
156: (e.g.,
157: .MR manualfeed )
158: on a per page or global basis.
159: The
160: .I action
161: string can be given as
162: .IR request,
163: .IM request : page\f1\|,
164: or
165: .IM request : page : file\f1\|.
166: If
167: .I page
168: is omitted or given as 0, the request
169: applies to all pages.
170: If
171: .I file
172: is omitted, the request
173: lookup is done in
174: .MR \*(dQ/ps.requests .
175: .SH DIAGNOSTICS
176: A 0 exit status is returned if
177: .I files
178: were successfully processed.
179: .SH BUGS
180: The default line width is too small for write-white
181: print engines, like the one used by the \s-1PS\s+1-2400.
