POSTTEK(1)          RISC/os Reference Manual           POSTTEK(1)



NAME
     posttek - PostScript translator for tektronix 4014 files

SYNOPSIS
     posttek [options] [files]

DESCRIPTION
     The posttek filter translates tektronix 4014 graphics files
     into PostScript and writes the results on the standard out-
     put.  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 indicates the
               lowest numbered page, a missing N2 indicates 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 posi-
               tive 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.
