NAME

       fixps - sanitize PostScript files

SYNOPSIS

       fixps [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION

       Try to fix common PostScript problems that break postprocessing.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      display this help and exit

       -v, --version
	      display version information and exit

       -q, --quiet
	      don't print informational messages

       -o, --output=FILE
	      save result in FILE.  If FILE is `-', send to stdout

       -f, --force
	      force full rewrite by ghostscript

       -n, --no-fix
	      don't fix the FILE, but still honor `-o'

       -c, --check, --dry-run
	      don't perform any action

   Fixes:
	      - Remove junk before and after PostScript content - Use only Unix end of lines (

       )

	      - Remove empty lines - Fix Apple prologue (fixmacps) - Fix FrameMaker prologue (fixfmps) - Fix CorelDraw prologue (fixnt) - Fix Win-
	      dows NT 3.5/4.0 prologue (fixnt) - Fix Windows 95 prologue - Ensure there is a `%%BeginSetup/%%EndSetup' section -  Removes  Canvas'
	      extraneaous `%%EndDocument:' comments - Split too long lines

       If the FILE seems really in a bad state, ghostscript may be used to perform a full rewrite.  The output might then be significantly bigger,
       but much safer.
