Enscript text 2 postscript converter

I am trying to create a pdf file starting with a .eps file for the letterhead, and a text file to print on it.
According to the man page the following should work.
Code:
^@epsf /home/aoti/coll07.eps
                             ****** INVOICE ******                   PAGE:  1

where ^@ is a single octal zero character.
Any advise or links to a decent tutorial would be appreciated.

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" and "latin1" are supported as encodings. SEE ALSO
