IMAGETOPS(1) K-Spool by Xinet (10/14/99 10.1) IMAGETOPS(1)
NAME [Toc] [Back]
imagetops - convert image file to printable PostScript
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
/usr/etc/appletalk/imagetops [ -D|-ddblev ] [ -J jobname ] [
-n user ] [ -p printer ] [ -m mode ] [ -P ppd ] filename
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The program imagetops produces a printable PostScript
version of the image filename on standard output. It will
be able to read all image formats that the psfiletype(1)
program labels as ``image'' or ``eps.''
OPTIONS [Toc] [Back]
The image is sized to fit into the Imageable Area of the
destination printer, determined by (in order of precedence):
1) a SETUP.PPD.user file in the current working directory,
2) a SETUP.PPD file in the current working directory, 3) a
ppd file supplied via the -P option, or 4) a PRINTER.PPD
file in the current working directory.
The mode parameter affects how the image is fit onto the
page. In fit mode (which is the default), the image is
either grown or shrunk to fill the entire Imageable Area
while preserving its aspect ratio. If mode is noscale, the
image is not scaled at all, and is centered within the
Imageable Area. In this case, if the image is larger than
the page, it will be cropped. The only other valid mode is
shrink, which is equivalent to noscale if the image is
smaller than the Imageable Area, or fit if the image is
larger than the Imageable Area. The mode is set either from
the settings for printer or from the -m option, whichever
option is last on the command line.
The -d option sets the debugging message mask to dblev. The
debugging mask is documented in opidebug(5). Full debugging
can be enabled with the -D option. By default, debug
messages go to standard error. Any supplied jobname is
placed in the PostScript header %%Title comment. The user
option is also placed in the PostScript header %%For
comment. The -p option gives the name of the print queue
for which this image is being converted. The only thing
currently affected by this is the mode.
