<p><i>fax2ps</i> reads one or more <small>TIFF</small>
|
|
facsimile image files and prints a compressed form of on the
|
|
standard output that is suitable for printing.</p>
|
|
<!-- INDENTATION -->
|
|
<p>By default, each page is scaled to reflect the image
|
|
dimensions and resolutions stored in the file. The
|
|
<b>−x</b> and <b>−y</b> options can be used to
|
|
specify the horizontal and vertical image resolutions
|
|
(lines/inch), respectively. If the <b>−S</b> option is
|
|
specified, each page is scaled to fill an output page. The
|
|
default output page is 8.5 by 11 inches. Alternate page
|
|
dimensions can be specified in inches with the
|
|
<b>−W</b> and <b>−H</b> options.</p>
|
|
<!-- INDENTATION -->
|
|
<p>By default <i>fax2ps</i> generates for all pages in the
|
|
file. The <b>−p</b> option can be used to select one
|
|
or more pages from a multi-page document.</p>
|
|
<!-- INDENTATION -->
|
|
<p><i>fax2ps</i> generates a compressed form of that is
|
|
optimized for sending pages of text to a printer attached to
|
|
a host through a low-speed link (such as a serial line).
|
|
Each output page is filled with white and then only the
|
|
black areas are drawn. The specification of the black
|
|
drawing operations is optimized by using a special font that
|
|
encodes the move-draw operations required to fill the black
|
|
regions on the page. This compression scheme typically
|
|
results in a substantially reduced description, relative to
|
|
the straightforward imaging of the page with a <i>image</i>
|
|
operator. This algorithm can, however, be ineffective for
|
|
continuous-tone and white-on-black images. For these images,
|
|
it sometimes is more efficient to send the raster bitmap
|
|
image directly; see <i>tiff2ps</i>(1).</p>
