PostScript Page
Orientation
When the ASCII to PostScript filter is active, a page orientation must be
specified. The default page orientation is Portrait, and may be specified
individually for each logical printer. See the example below on how to
change the page orientation.
The page orientation setting is ignored when the ASCII to PostScript fil-
ter is inactive.
PostScript Page
Format
When the ASCII to PostScript filter is active, a page format must be spec-
ified. The page format is defined by six byte values: Lines per Page, Char-
acters per Line, Characters per Inch, Lines per Inch, Left Margin, and
Top Margin (see also PR1_FORM, Printer1 Menu in Appendix A).
The page format settings are ignored when the ASCII to PostScript filter
is inactive.
Example: The following entries in your config file will activate the ASCII to
PostScript conversion for PR2, set the page size to Letter, the page orien-
tation to Landscape, and the page format to 48 lines per page, 0 characters
per line (equal to disable line wrap), 12 CPI, 6 LPI, 3 mm left margin and
5 mm top margin:
PostScript Font You may specify a PostScript font to be used when the ASCII to
PostScript filter is active. The specified font must be available in the
attached PostScript printer. An invalid font name may cause a PostScript
error and terminate the printout.
If no font name is specified, Courier (fixed pitch) will be used.
The font settings are ignored when the ASCII to PostScript filter is inac-
tive.
Example: The following entry in your config file will select the Helvetica propor-
tional font as the PR2 PostScript font:
PR2_FILT. : POSTSCR
PR2_SIZE. : LETTER
PR2_ORNT. : LANDS
PR2_FORM. : 48 0 120 60 30 50
PR2_FONT. : Helvetica
