       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.

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