NAME
       posttek - PostScript translator for tektronix 4014 files

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/lp/postscript/posttek [options] [files]

DESCRIPTION
       The posttek filter translates tektronix 4014 graphics 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:

       -c num    Print num copies of each page.  By default, only one copy
                 is printed.

       -f name   Print text 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.

       -m num    Magnify each logical page by the factor num.  Pages are
                 scaled uniformly about the origin which, by default, is
                 located at the center of each page.  The default
                 magnification is 1.0.

       -n num    Print num logical pages on each piece of paper, where num
                 can be any positive integer.  By default, num is set to 1.

       -o list   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.

       -p mode   Print files in either portrait or landscape mode.  Only the
                 first character of mode is significant.  The default mode
                 is landscape.

       -w num    Set the line width used for graphics to num points, where a
                 point is approximately 1/72 of an inch.  By default, num is
                 set to 0 points, which forces lines to be one pixel wide.

       -x num    Translate the origin num inches along the positive x axis.
                 The default coordinate system has the origin fixed at the
                 center of the page, with positive x to the right and
                 positive y up the page.  Positive num moves everything
                 right.  The default offset is 0.0 inches.

       -y num    Translate the origin num inches along the positive y axis.
                 Positive num moves everything up the page.  The default
                 offset is 0.0.

DIAGNOSTICS
       An exit status of 0 is returned if files were successfully processed.

NOTES
       The default line width is too small for write-white print engines,
       such as the one used by the PS-2400.

       /usr/lib/postscript/posttek.ps
