NAME
     posttek - PostScript translator for Tektronix 4014 files

SYNOPSIS
     posttek [-c num] [-f name] [-m num] [-n num] [-o list]
          [-p mode] [-w num] [-x num] [-y num] [file]...


     /usr/lib/lp/postscript/posttek


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 logi-
                cal  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  posi-
                tive  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  posi-
                tive 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.
