DESCRIPTION¶
This utility provides functionality approximately equivalent to the Unix enscript(1) program. It prints plain text files using a single font. It currently handles tabs and formfeeds, but not backspaces. It will line-wrap when using fixed-pitch fonts. It will also do kerning and width adjustment.
The default device (-sDEVICE=) and resolution (-r) are as follows:
By default the current date is formatted as the center header.
gslp epson 180
gsbj bj10e 180
gsdj deskjet 300
gsdj500 djet500 300
gslj laserjet 300
OPTIONS¶
- Standard switches implemented:
- -12BclqRr -b<header> -f<font> -F<hfont> -L<lines> -p<outfile>
- Sun switches implemented:
- -T<n> set tab width
- Switches ignored:
- -GghKkmow -# -C -d -J -n -P -S -s -t -v
- Switches added:
- --add-to-space <units>
- add the given number of 1/72" units to the width of each space (may be negative)
- --add-to-width <units>
- add the given number of 1/72" units to the width of each character (may be negative)
- --columns <n>
- print in <n> columns
- --detect
- treat the file as PostScript if it starts with %!
- --first-page <n>
- start printing at page <n>
- --kern <file.afm>
- kern using information from the given .AFM file
- --last-page <n>
- stop printing after page <n>
- --(heading|footing)-(left|center|right) <string>
- set the heading/footing fields; use -B first to clear
- --margin-(top|bottom|left|right) <inches>
- set a margin
- --no-eject-(file|formfeed)
- end-of-file/FF only starts a new column, not a new sheet
- --spacing <n>
- use double (n=2), triple (n=3), etc. spacing
