NAME
postdaisy - PostScript translator for Diablo 630 files
SYNOPSIS
postdaisy [options] [files]
DESCRIPTION
The postdaisy filter translates Diablo 630 daisy-wheel 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 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. Determines
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.
-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.
