NAME
mgp2ps -- generate PostScript file from MagicPoint file SYNOPSIS
mgp2ps [-cirtV] [-f psfile] [-p papersize] [-x xmargin] [-y ymargin] mgpfile DESCRIPTION
mgp2ps is a converter from MagicPoint file mgpfile to PostScript file. If -f option is specified, PostScript will be generated to psfile. Otherwise, printed to the standard output. If there exists foo.eps corresponding to foo.gif (or whatever), the encapsulated PostScript file will be included to the PostScript file instead. The following options are available: -c Generate color PostScript file (experimental). By default mgp2ps will generate monochrome postscript file. -i Paint inside icon symbols. -r Stack the paper in reverse order. -V Be verbose. -f psfile Pathname to put the PostScript output. -p papersize papersize specifies the size of the paper to be used. a3, a4, a5, b5, A3, A4, A5, B5, letter, legal, ledger, tabloid, statement, executive, folio, quarto and 10x14 are available. Default size is a4. -x xmargin -y ymargin xmargin and ymargin specifies length of the margin area around the edge of the paper. -t Use truetypefont instead of psfont (ASCII font only). -e Specify encodings. At this moment, "iso-8859-1", "latin1", "iso-8859-2" "and latin-2" are supported as encodings. -m emulate "%pause" directive. -X engine Do not use rendering engine, specified by engine. engine can be only FreeType so far. -g level specify the distance level between lines. If level is 0, the result will be close to the result of xft2 rendering. If others, it will be close to the result of other rendering engines. SEE ALSO

NAME
paperconf - print paper configuration information SYNOPSIS
paperconf [ [ -p ] paper | -d | -a ] [ -z ] [ -n | -N ] [ -s | -w | -h ] [ -c | -m | -i ] DESCRIPTION
paperconf prints information about a given paper. The information that can be obtained is the name of the paper, its size and its width or height. When called without arguments, paperconf prints the name of the system- or user-specified paper, obtained by looking in order at the PAPERSIZE environment variable, at the contents of the file specified by the PAPERCONF environment variable, at the contents of /etc/papersize or by using letter as a fall-back value if none of the other alternatives are successful. By default, width and height of the paper are printed in PostScript points. OPTIONS
-p paper Specify the name of the paper about which information is asked. -d Use the default builtin paper name. -a Consider all known paper names. -z If the paper name is unknown, print it but issue a message on the standard error and exit with a non-zero code. -n Print the name of the paper. -N Print the name of the paper with the first letter capitalized. -s Print the size (width followed by height) of the paper. -w Print the width of the paper. -h Print the height of the paper. -c Use centimetres as unit for paper size. -m Use millimetres as unit for paper size. -i Use inches as unit for paper size. ENVIRONMENT
PAPERSIZE Paper size to use regardless of what the papersize file contains. PAPERCONF Full path to a file containing the paper size to use. FILES
/etc/papersize Contains the name of the system-wide default paper size to be used if the PAPERSIZE and PAPERCONF variables are not set. AUTHOR
