NAME

prtgif - Prints a tgif object file without opening windows or fonts. 

SYNOPSIS

prtgif [-eps] [-p] [-ps] [-f] [-odir] [file1 file2 ...]

DESCRIPTION

prtgif prints file.obj (generated by tgif) into a PostScript(TM) page description file and pipes it to lpr if none of the -eps, -p, -ps, or -f options are not specified; in this case, any other command line options are sent to lpr. 

If the -eps or the -p option is specified, it generates an encapsulated PostScript file in file.eps; this file is supposed to be included in a LaTeX file through the \psfig, \epsf, or \psfile construct (see the man pages of tgif for details).  If the -ps or the -f option is specified, it generates a PostScript file in file.ps; this file can be printed to a PostScript printer with lpr.  (Note that if any of the -eps, -p, -ps, or -f options are specified, any other command line options are ignored.) 

If the -o option is not specified, the output file (eps or ps) goes into the same directory as the input file.  If -odir is specified, the output file goes into the directory specified by dir. 

Note that prtgif is no longer calling tgif2ps.  Also note that while tgif can generate X11 bitmap or X11 pixmap files, prtgif can not.
