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.


OPTIONS

     -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. 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 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.


EXIT STATUS

     The following exit values are returned:

     0     Successful completion.

     non-zero
           An error occurred.

     engines, such as the one used by the PS-2400.
