DESCRIPTION
The postdaisy filter translates Diablo 630 daisy-wheel 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.
OPTIONS
-c num
Print num copies of each page. By default only one
copy is printed.
-f name
Print files 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.
-h num
Set the initial horizontal motion index to num. Deter-
mines the character advance and the default point
size, unless the -s option is used. The default is
12.
-m num
Magnify each logical page by the factor num. Pages are
scaled uniformly about the origin, which is located
near the upper left corner 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. The page range
is an expression of logical pages rather than physical
sheets of paper. For example, if you are printing two
logical pages to a sheet, and you specified a range of
4, then two sheets of paper would print, containing
four page layouts. If you specified a page range of
3-4, when requesting two logical pages to a sheet;
then only page 3 and page 4 layouts would print, and
they would appear on one physical sheet of paper.
-p mode
Print files in either portrait or landscape mode. Only
the first character of mode is significant. The
default mode is portrait.
-r num
Selects carriage return and line feed behavior. If num
is 1, a line feed generates a carriage return. If num
is 2, a carriage return generates a line feed. Setting
num to 3 enables both modes.
-s num
Use point size num instead of the default value set by
the initial horizontal motion index.
-v num
Set the initial vertical motion index to num. The
default is 8.
-x num
Translate the origin num inches along the positive x
axis. The default coordinate system has the origin
fixed near the upper left corner of the page, with
positive x to the right and positive y down the page.
Positive num moves everything right. The default
offset is 0.25 inches.
-y num
Translate the origin num inches along the positive y
axis. Positive num moves text up the page. The default
offset is -0.25 inches.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
non-zero
An error occurred.
