+
+1 Why use Dvips?
+****************
+
+The Dvips program has a number of features that set it apart from other
+PostScript drivers for TeX. This rather long section describes the
+advantages of using Dvips, and may be skipped if you are just
+interested in learning how to use the program. *Note Installation::,
+for details of compilation and installation.
+
+ The Dvips driver generates excellent, standard PostScript, that can
+be included in other documents as figures or printed through a variety
+of spoolers. The generated PostScript requires very little printer
+memory, so very complex documents with a lot of fonts can easily be
+printed even on PostScript printers without much memory, such as the
+original Apple LaserWriter. The PostScript output is also compact,
+requiring less disk space to store and making it feasible as a transfer
+format.
+
+ Even those documents that are too complex to print in their entirety
+on a particular printer can be printed, since Dvips will automatically
+split such documents into pieces, reclaiming the printer memory between
+each piece.
+
+ The Dvips program supports graphics in a natural way, allowing
+PostScript graphics to be included and automatically scaled and
+positioned in a variety of ways.
+
+ Printers with any resolution are supported, even if they have
+different resolutions in the horizontal and vertical directions. High
+resolution output is supported for typesetters, including an option
+that compresses the bitmap fonts so that typesetter virtual memory is
+not exhausted. This option also significantly reduces the size of the
+PostScript file and decoding in the printer is very fast.
+
+ Missing fonts can be automatically generated if Metafont exists on
+the system, or fonts can be converted from GF to PK format on demand.
+If a font cannot be generated, a scaled version of the same font at a
+different size can be used instead, although Dvips will complain loudly
+about the poor aesthetics of the resulting output.
+
+ Users will appreciate features such as collated copies and support
+for `tpic', `psfig', `emtex', and `METAPOST'; system administrators
+will love the support for multiple printers, each with their own
+configuration file, and the ability to pipe the output directly to a
+program such as `lpr'. Support for MS-DOS, OS/2, and VMS in addition
+to Unix is provided in the standard distribution, and porting to other
+systems is easy.
+
+ One of the most important features is the support of virtual fonts,
+which add an entirely new level of flexibility to TeX. Virtual fonts
+are used to give Dvips its excellent PostScript font support, handling
+all the font remapping in a natural, portable, elegant, and extensible
+way. Dvips even comes with its own Afm2tfm program that creates the
+necessary virtual fonts and TeX font metric files automatically from
+the Adobe font metric files.
+
+ Source is provided and freely distributable, so adding a
+site-specific feature is possible. Adding such features is made easier
+by the highly modular structure of the program.
+
+ There is really no reason to use another driver, and the more people
+use Dvips, the less time will be spent fighting with PostScript and the
+more time will be available to create beautiful documents. So if you
+don't use Dvips on your system, get it today.

+2 Installation
+**************
+
+(A copy of this chapter is in the distribution file `dvipsk/INSTALL'.)
+
+Installing Dvips is mostly the same as installing any Kpathsea-using
+program. Therefore, for the basic steps involved, *note Installation:
+(kpathsea)Installation. (A copy is in the file `kpathsea/INSTALL'.)
+
+ For solutions to common installation problems and information on how
+to report a bug, see the file `kpathsea/BUGS' (*note Bugs:
+(kpathsea)Bugs.). For solutions to Dvips-specific problems, *note
+Debug options::. Also see the Dvips home page at
+`http://www.radicaleye.com/dvips'.
+
+ Dvips does require some additional installation, detailed in the
+sections below. Also, to configure color devices, *note Color device
+configuration::.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* config.ps installation:: Printer and site Dvips configuration.
+* PostScript font installation:: Many PostScript fonts are freely available.
+* Ghostscript installation:: A free PostScript interpreter.
+* Diagnosing problems:: Some common runtime difficulties.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: config.ps installation, Next: PostScript font installation, Up: Installation
+
+2.1 `config.ps' installation
+============================
+
+Dvips has its own configuration files: a file `config.ps' for sitewide
+defaults, and a file `config.PRINTER' for each printer (output device).
+Since these are site-specific, `make install' does not create them;
+you must create them yourself.
+
+ (These Dvips configuration files are independent of the Kpathsea
+configuration file `texmf.cnf' (*note Config files: (kpathsea)Config
+files.).
+
+ Dvips configuration files contents and searching are described fully
+in *Note Config files::. The simplest way to create a new
+configuration file is to copy and modify the file
+`dvipsk/contrib/config.proto', seasoning with options to your taste
+from *Note Config files::. Here is `config.proto' for your reading
+pleasure:
+ % Prototype Dvips configuration file.
+
+ % How to print, maybe with lp instead lpr, etc.
+ o |lpr
+
+ % Default resolution of this device, in dots per inch.
+ D 600
+
+ % Metafont mode. (This is completely different from the -M command-line
+ % option, which controls whether MakeTeXPK is invoked.) Get
+ % `ftp://ftp.tug.org/tex/modes.mf' for a list of mode names. This mode
+ % and the D number above must agree, or MakeTeXPK will get confused.

+
+2.2 PostScript font installation
+================================
+
+To use PostScript fonts with TeX and Dvips, you need both metric files
+(`.tfm' and `.vf') and the outlines (`.pfa' or `.pfb'). *Note Font
+concepts::.
+
+ To support the basic PostScript font set, the recommended (and
+simplest) approach is to install the files at
+`http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/psfonts/lw35nfsx.zip'. This
+archive contains metrics, outlines, and bitmaps (for previewing) for
+the 35 de facto standard fonts donated by URW and the additional
+high-quality freely available PostScript fonts donated by Adobe,
+Bitstream, and URW, including geometrically-created variants such as
+oblique and small caps.
+
+ `CTAN:/fonts/psfonts' contains support for many additional fonts for
+which you must buy outlines (Adobe, Bigelow & Holmes, Monotype,
+Softkey, Y&Y). (For CTAN info, *note unixtex.ftp:
+(kpathsea)unixtex.ftp.; a copy is in the top-level file `INSTALL'.)
+
+ If you have additional PostScript fonts, you can make them available
+to Dvips by (1) giving them with appropriate filenames; and (2) running
+Afm2tfm (*note Making a font available::) to make TFM and VF metrics for
+TeX and Dvips to use. Also add them to `psfonts.map' if necessary
+(*note psfonts.map::); it contains everything contained in
+`lw35nfsx.zip' and most fonts that come with Unix systems.
+
+ Following are locations for vendor-supplied fonts. Please mail
+<tex-k@tug.org> if you find fonts elsewhere on your system.
+
+DEC Ultrix
+ /usr/lib/DPS/outline/decwin
+
+DEC Digital Unix
+ /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1Adobe
+

+Sun Solaris 2
+ /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/outline
+
+VMS
+ SYS$COMMON:[SYSFONT.XDPS.OUTLINE]
+
+The NeXT system supplies more fonts than any others, but there's a lot
+of overlap.
+
+ Finally, if you have an Hewlett-Packard printer, you should be able
+to get Type 1 font files for the standard 35 fonts from HP, if the
+freely available URW Type 1's do not satisfy for whatever reason. The
+phone number for HP Printer Drivers is (in the United States)
+303-339-7009. The driver set to ask for is Adobe Type Manager 2.51,
+and the disk set number is `MP210en3'. Mentioning anything other than
+Microsoft Windows when you ask for the driver set will likely lead to
+great confusion on the other end.

+
+2.3 Ghostscript installation
+============================
+
+Ghostscript is a PostScript interpreter freely available to end-users,
+written by Peter Deutsch. It can read the PostScript produced by Dvips
+and render it on your monitor, or for another device (e.g., an Epson
+printer) that does not support PostScript, or in PDF format. The latest
+version is available via `http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/index.html' and
+`ftp://ftp.cs.wisc.edu/pub/ghost/aladdin/'.
+
+ A somewhat older version of Ghostscript is available under the GNU
+General Public License, free to everyone. You can get that from
+`ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/'.
+
+ The program Ghostview, written by Tim Theisen, provides typical
+previewing capabilities (next page/previous page, magnification, etc.).
+It requires Ghostscript to run, and files in structured Postscript,
+specifically with `%%Page' comments (no `N' in `config.ps'). You can
+get Ghostview from the same places as Ghostscript.
+
+

+
+2.4 Diagnosing problems
+=======================
+
+You've gone through all the trouble of installing Dvips, carefully read
+all the instructions in this manual, and still can't get something to
+work. The following sections provide some helpful hints if you find
+yourself in such a situation.
+
+ For details on effective bug reporting, common installation problems,
+and `mktexpk' problems, *note Bugs: (kpathsea)Bugs.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Debug options:: Getting diagnostics.
+* No output:: No output at all.
+* Small or inverted:: Output too small or inverted.
+* Printer errors:: The printer sends back errors.
+* Long documents fail:: Long documents fail to print.
+* Including graphics fails:: Figures don't work.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Debug options, Next: No output, Up: Diagnosing problems
+
+2.4.1 Debug options
+-------------------
+
+The `-d' flag to Dvips helps in tracking down certain errors. The
+parameter to this flag is an integer that tells what errors are
+currently being tracked. To track a certain class of debug messages,
+simply provide the appropriate number given below; if you wish to track
+multiple classes, sum the numbers of the classes you wish to track. To
+track all classes, you can use `-1'. Another useful value is `3650',
+which tracks everything having to do with file searching and opening.
+
+ Some of these debugging options are actually provided by Kpathsea
+(*note Debugging: (kpathsea)Debugging.).
+
+ The classes are:
+1
+ specials
+
+2
+ paths
+
+4
+ fonts
+
+8
+ pages
+
+16
+ headers
+
+32
+ font compression
+
+64
+ files
+
+128
+ config files
+
+256
+ Partial Type 1 font encoding vectors
+
+512
+ Partial Type 1 subr calls
+
+1024
+ Kpathsea `stat' calls
+
+2048
+ Kpathsea hash table lookups
+
+4096
+ Kpathsea path element expansion
+
+8192
+ Kpathsea path searches
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: No output, Next: Small or inverted, Prev: Debug options, Up: Diagnosing problems
+
+2.4.2 No output at all
+----------------------
+
+If you are not getting any output at all, even from the simplest
+one-character file (for instance, `\ \bye'), then something is very
+wrong. Practically any file sent to a PostScript laser printer should
+generate some output, at the very least a page detailing what error
+occurred, if any. Talk to your system administrator about downloading a
+PostScript error handler. (Adobe distributes a good one called
+`ehandler.ps'.)
+
+ It is possible, especially if you are using non-Adobe PostScript,
+that your PostScript interpreter is broken. Even then it should
+generate an error message. Dvips tries to work around as many bugs as
+possible in common non-Adobe PostScript interpreters, but doubtless it
+misses a few. PowerPage Revision 1, Interpreter Version 20001.001, on
+a Mitsubishi Shinko CHC-S446i color thermal dye sublimation printer is
+known to be unable to print with any but builtin fonts.
+
+ If Dvips gives any strange error messages, or compilation on your
+machine generated a lot of warnings, perhaps the Dvips program itself is
+broken. Try using the debug options to determine where the error
+occurred (*note Debug options::).
+
+ It is possible your spooler is broken and is misinterpreting the
+structured comments. Try the `-N' flag to turn off structured comments
+and see what happens.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Small or inverted, Next: Printer errors, Prev: No output, Up: Diagnosing problems
+
+2.4.3 Output too small or inverted
+----------------------------------
+
+If some documents come out inverted or too small, probably your spooler
+is not supplying an end of job indicator at the end of each file. (This
+commonly happens on small machines that don't have spoolers.) You can
+force Dvips to do this with the `-F' flag (or `F' config file option),
+but this generates files with a terminating binary character
+(control-D). You can also try using the `-s' flag (or `s' config file
+option) to enclose the entire job in a save/restore pair. *Note
+Command-line options::, and *Note Config files::.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Printer errors, Next: Long documents fail, Prev: Small or inverted, Up: Diagnosing problems
+
+2.4.4 Error messages from printer
+---------------------------------
+
+If your printer returns error messages, the error message gives very
+good information on what might be going wrong. One of the most common
+error messages is `bop undefined'. This is caused by old versions of
+Transcript and other spoolers that do not properly parse the setup
+section of the PostScript. To fix this, turn off structured comments
+with the `-N' option, but it'd be best to get your spooling software
+updated.
+
+ Another error message is `VM exhausted'. Some printers indicate
+this error by locking up, others quietly reset. This is caused by Dvips
+thinking that the printer has more memory than it actually does, and
+then printing a complicated document. To fix this, try lowering the
+`m' parameter in the configuration file; use the debug option to make
+sure you adjust the correct file.
+
+ Other errors may indicate you are trying to include graphics that
+don't nest properly in other PostScript documents, among other things.
+Try the PostScript file on a QMS PS-810 or other Adobe PostScript
+printer if you have one, or Ghostscript (*note Ghostscript
+installation::); it might be a problem with the printer itself.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Long documents fail, Next: Including graphics fails, Prev: Printer errors, Up: Diagnosing problems
+
+2.4.5 Long documents fail to print
+----------------------------------
+
+This is usually caused by incorrectly specifying the amount of memory
+the printer has in the configuration file; see the previous section.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Including graphics fails, Prev: Long documents fail, Up: Diagnosing problems
+
+2.4.6 Including graphics fails
+------------------------------
+
+The most common problem with including graphics is an incorrect bounding
+box (*note Bounding box::). Complain to whoever wrote the software that
+generated the file if the bounding box is indeed incorrect.
+
+ Another possible problem is that the figure you are trying to include
+does not nest properly; there are certain rules PostScript applications
+must follow when generating files to be included. The Dvips program
+includes work-arounds for such errors in Adobe Illustrator and other
+programs, but there are certainly applications that haven't been tested.
+
+ One possible thing to try is the `-K' flag which strips the comments
+from an included figure. This might be necessary if the PostScript
+spooling software does not read the structured comments correctly. Use
+of this flag will break graphics from some applications, though, since
+some applications read the PostScript file from the input stream,
+looking for a particular comment.
+
+ Any application which generates graphics output containing raw binary
+(not ASCII hex) will probably fail with Dvips.

+3 Invoking Dvips
+****************
+
+Dvips reads a DVI file as output by (for example) TeX, and converts it
+to PostScript, taking care of builtin or downloaded PostScript fonts,
+font reencoding, color, etc. These features are described in other
+chapters in this document.
+
+ There many ways to control Dvips' behavior: configuration files,
+environment variables, and command-line options.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Basic usage::
+* Command-line options::
+* Environment variables::
+* Config files::
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Basic usage, Next: Command-line options, Up: Invoking Dvips
+
+3.1 Basic usage of Dvips
+========================
+
+To use Dvips at its simplest, simply type
+ dvips foo
+ where `foo.dvi' is the output of TeX that you want to print. If
+Dvips has been installed correctly, the document will probably roll out
+of your default printer.
+
+ If you use fonts that have not been used on your system before, they
+may be automatically generated; this process can take a few minutes, so
+progress reports appear by default. The next time that document is
+printed, these fonts will have been saved in the proper directories, so
+printing will go much faster. (If Dvips tries to endlessly generate the
+same fonts over and over again, it hasn't been installed properly.
+*Note Unable to generate fonts: (kpathsea)Unable to generate fonts.)
+
+ Many options are available (see the next section). For a brief
+summary of available options, just type
+ dvips --help
+
+

+
+`-a*'
+ Conserve memory by making three passes over the DVI file instead
+ of two and only loading those characters actually used. Generally
+ only useful on machines with a very limited amount of memory, like
+ some PCs.
+
+`-A'
+ Print only the odd pages. This option uses TeX page numbers, not
+ physical page numbers.
+
+`-b NUM'
+ Generate NUM copies of each page, but duplicating the page body
+ rather than using the `/#copies' PostScript variable. This can be
+ useful in conjunction with a header file setting `bop-hook' to do

+ Print only the even pages. This option uses TeX page numbers, not
+ physical page numbers.
+
+`-c NUM'
+ Generate NUM consecutive copies of every page, i.e., the output is
+ uncollated. This merely sets the builtin PostScript variable
+ `/#copies'.
+
+`-C NUM'
+ Generate NUM copies, but collated (by replicating the data in the
+ PostScript file). Slower than the `-c' option, but easier on the
+ hands, and faster than resubmitting the same PostScript file
+ multiple times.
+
+`-d NUM'
+ Set the debug flags, showing what Dvips (thinks it) is doing.
+ This will work unless Dvips has been compiled without the `DEBUG'
+ option (not recommended). *Note Debug options::, for the possible
+ values of NUM. Use `-d -1' as the first option for maximum output.
+
+`-D NUM'
+ Set both the horizontal and vertical resolution to NUM, given in
+ dpi (dots per inch). This affects the choice of bitmap fonts that
+ are loaded and also the positioning of letters in resident
+ PostScript fonts. Must be between 10 and 10000. This affects both
+ the horizontal and vertical resolution. If a high resolution
+ (something greater than 400 dpi, say) is selected, the `-Z' flag
+ should probably also be used. If you are using fonts made with
+ Metafont, such as Computer Modern, `mktexpk' needs to know about
+ the value for NUM that you use or Metafont will fail. See the file
+ `ftp://ftp.tug.org/tex/modes.mf' for a list of resolutions and mode
+ names for most devices.
+
+`-e NUM'
+ Maximum drift in pixels of each character from its `true'
+ resolution-independent position on the page. The default value of
+ this parameter is resolution dependent (it is the number of
+ entries in the list [100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 800, 1000,
+ 1200, 1600, 2000, 2400, 2800, 3200, ...] that are less than or
+ equal to the resolution in dots per inch). Allowing individual
+ characters to `drift' from their correctly rounded positions by a
+ few pixels, while regaining the true position at the beginning of
+ each new word, improves the spacing of letters in words.
+
+`-E*'
+ Generate an EPSF file with a tight bounding box. This only looks
+ at marks made by characters and rules, not by any included
+ graphics. In addition, it gets the glyph metrics from the TFM
+ file, so characters that print outside their enclosing TFM box may
+ confuse it. In addition, the bounding box might be a bit too
+ loose if the character glyph has significant left or right side
+ bearings. Nonetheless, this option works well enough for creating
+ small EPSF files for equations or tables or the like. (Of course,
+ Dvips output, especially when using bitmap fonts, is
+ resolution-dependent and thus does not make very good EPSF files,
+ especially if the images are to be scaled; use these EPSF files
+ with care.) For multiple page input files, also specify `-i' to
+ get each page as a separate EPSF file; otherwise, all the pages
+ are overlaid in the single output file.
+
+`-f*'
+ Run as a filter. Read the DVI file from standard input and write
+ the PostScript to standard output. The standard input must be
+ seekable, so it cannot be a pipe. If your input must be a pipe,
+ write a shell script that copies the pipe output to a temporary
+ file and then points Dvips at this file. This option also
+ disables the automatic reading of the `PRINTER' environment
+ variable; use `-P$PRINTER' after the `-f' to read it anyway. It
+ also turns off the automatic sending of control-D if it was turned
+ on with the `-F' option or in the configuration file; use `-F'
+ after the `-f' to send it anyway.
+
+`-F*'
+ Write control-D (ASCII code 4) as the very last character of the
+ PostScript file. This is useful when Dvips is driving the printer
+ directly instead of working through a spooler, as is common on
+ personal systems. On systems shared by more than one person, this
+ is not recommended.
+
+`-G*'
+ Shift non-printing characters (ASCII 0-32, 127) to higher-numbered
+ positions. This may be useful sometimes.
+
+`-h NAME'
+ Prepend NAME as an additional header file, or, if NAME is `-',
+ suppress all header files. Any definitions in the header file get
+ added to the PostScript `userdict'.
+
+`-i*'
+ Make each section be a separate file; a "section" is a part of the
+ document processed independently, most often created to avoid
+ memory overflow. The filenames are created replacing the suffix
+ of the supplied output file name by a three-digit sequence number.
+ This option is most often used in conjunction with the `-S'
+ option which sets the maximum section length in pages; if `-i' is
+ specified and `-S' is not, each page is output as a separate file.
+ For instance, some phototypesetters cannot print more than ten or
+ so consecutive pages before running out of steam; these options
+ can be used to automatically split a book into ten-page sections,
+ each to its own file.
+
+`-j*'
+ Download only needed characters from Type 1 fonts. This is the
+ default in the current release. Some debugging flags trace this
+ operation (*note Debug options::). You can also control partial
+ downloading on a per-font basis (*note psfonts.map::).
+
+`-k*'
+ Print crop marks. This option increases the paper size (which
+ should be specified, either with a paper size special or with the
+ `-T' option) by a half inch in each dimension. It translates each
+ page by a quarter inch and draws cross-style crop marks. It is
+ mostly useful with typesetters that can set the page size
+ automatically. This works by downloading `crop.pro'.
+
+`-K*'
+ Remove comments in included PostScript graphics, font files, and
+ headers; only necessary to get around bugs in spoolers or
+ PostScript post-processing programs. Specifically, the `%%Page'
+ comments, when left in, often cause difficulties. Use of this
+ flag can cause other graphics to fail, however, since the
+ PostScript header macros from some software packages read portion
+ the input stream line by line, searching for a particular comment.
+
+`-l [=]NUM'
+ The last page printed will be the first one numbered NUM. Default
+ is the last page in the document. If NUM is prefixed by an equals
+ sign, then it (and the argument to the `-p' option, if specified)
+ is treated as a physical (absolute) page number, rather than a
+ value to compare with the TeX `\count0' values stored in the DVI
+ file. Thus, using `-l =9' will end with the ninth page of the
+ document, no matter what the pages are actually numbered.
+
+`-m*'
+ Specify manual feed, if supported by the output device.
+
+`-mode MODE'
+ Use MODE as the Metafont device name for path searching and font
+ generation. This overrides any value from configuration files.
+ With the default paths, explicitly specifying the mode also makes
+ the program assume the fonts are in a subdirectory named MODE.
+ *Note TeX directory structure: (kpathsea)TeX directory structure.
+ If Metafont does not understand the MODE name, see *Note Unable to
+ generate fonts: (kpathsea)Unable to generate fonts.
+
+`-M*'
+ Turns off automatic font generation (`mktexpk'). If `mktexpk',
+ the invocation is appended to a file `missfont.log' (by default)
+ in the current directory. You can then execute the log file to
+ create the missing files after fixing the problem. If the current
+ directory is not writable and the environment variable or
+ configuration file value `TEXMFOUTPUT' is set, its value is used.
+ Otherwise, nothing is written. The name `missfont.log' is
+ overridden by the `MISSFONT_LOG' environment variable or
+ configuration file value.
+
+`-n NUM'
+ Print at most NUM pages. Default is 100000.
+
+`-N*'
+ Turns off generation of structured comments such as `%%Page'; this
+ may be necessary on some systems that try to interpret PostScript
+ comments in weird ways, or on some PostScript printers. Old
+ versions of TranScript in particular cannot handle modern
+ Encapsulated PostScript. Beware: This also disables page
+ movement, etc., in PostScript viewers such as Ghostview.
+
+`-noomega'
+ This will disable the use of Omega extensions when interpreting
+ DVI files. By default, the additional opcodes `129' and `134' are
+ recognized by Dvips as Omega extensions and interpreted as
+ requests to set 2-byte characters. The only drawback is that the
+ virtual font array will (at least temporarily) require 65536
+ positions instead of the default 256 positions, i.e., the memory
+ requirements of Dvips will be slightly larger. If you find this
+ unacceptable or encounter another problem with the Omega
+ extensions, you can switch this extension off by using `-noomega'
+ (but please do send a bug report if you find such problems, *note
+ Bugs: (kpathsea)Bugs.).
+
+`-o NAME'
+ Send output to the file NAME. If `-o' is specified without NAME
+ (i.e., it is the last thing on the command line), the default is
+ `FILE.ps' where the input DVI file was `FILE.dvi'. If `-o' isn't
+ given at all, the configuration file default is used.
+
+ If NAME is `-', output goes to standard output. If the first
+ character of NAME is `!' or `|', then the remainder will be used
+ as an argument to `popen'; thus, specifying `|lpr' as the output
+ file will automatically queue the file for printing as usual.
+ (The MS-DOS version will print to the local printer device `PRN'
+ when NAME is `|lpr' and a program by that name cannot be found.)
+
+ `-o' disables the automatic reading of the `PRINTER' environment
+ variable, and turns off the automatic sending of control-D. See
+ the `-f' option for how to override this.
+
+`-O X-OFFSET,Y-OFFSET'
+ Move the origin by X-OFFSET,Y-OFFSET, a comma-separated pair of
+ dimensions such as `.1in,-.3cm' (*note papersize special::). The
+ origin of the page is shifted from the default position (of one
+ inch down, one inch to the right from the upper left corner of the
+ paper) by this amount. This is usually best specified in the
+ printer-specific configuration file.
+
+ This is useful for a printer that consistently offsets output
+ pages by a certain amount. You can use the file `testpage.tex' to
+ determine the correct value for your printer. Be sure to do
+ several runs with the same `O' value--some printers vary widely
+ from run to run.
+
+ If your printer offsets every other page consistently, instead of
+ every page, your best recourse is to use `bop-hook' (*note
+ PostScript hooks::).
+
+`-p [=]NUM'
+ The first page printed will be the first one numbered NUM. Default
+ is the first page in the document. If NUM is prefixed by an
+ equals sign, then it (and the argument to the `-l' option, if
+ specified) is treated as a physical (absolute) page number, rather
+ than a value to compare with the TeX `\count0' values stored in the
+ DVI file. Thus, using `-p =3' will start with the third page of
+ the document, no matter what the pages are actually numbered.
+
+`-pp FIRST-LAST'
+ Print pages FIRST through LAST; equivalent to `-p FIRST -l LAST',
+ except that multiple `-pp' options accumulate, unlike `-p' and
+ `-l'. The `-' separator can also be `:'.
+
+`-P PRINTER'
+ Read the configuration file `config.PRINTER' (`PRINTER.cfg' on
+ MS-DOS), which can set the output name (most likely `o |lpr
+ -PPRINTER'), resolution, Metafont mode, and perhaps font paths and
+ other printer-specific defaults. It works best to put sitewide
+ defaults in the one master `config.ps' file and only things that
+ vary printer to printer in the `config.PRINTER' files; `config.ps'
+ is read before `config.PRINTER'.
+
+ A configuration file for creating Adobe PDF files is provided in
+ `config.pdf' and can be loaded with `-Ppdf', it will try to
+ include Type1 outline fonts into the PostScript file (*note
+ Hypertext caveats::).
+
+ If no `-P' or `-o' is given, the environment variable `PRINTER' is
+ checked. If that variable exists, and a corresponding
+ `config.PRINTER' (`PRINTER.cfg' on MS-DOS) file exists, it is read.
+ *Note Configuration file searching::.
+
+`-q*'
+ Run quietly. Don't chatter about pages converted, etc. to standard
+ output; report no warnings (only errors) to standard error.
+
+`-r*'
+ Output pages in reverse order. By default, page 1 is output first.
+
+`-R'
+ Run securely. `-R2' disables both shell command execution in
+ `\special' (via ``', *note Dynamic creation of graphics::) and
+ config files (via the `E' option, *note Configuration file
+ commands::) and opening of any absolute filenames. `-R1', the
+ default, forbids shell escapes but allows absolute filenames.
+ `-R0' allows both.
+
+`-s*'
+ Enclose the output in a global save/restore pair. This causes the
+ file to not be truly conformant, and is thus not recommended, but
+ is useful if you are driving a deficient printer directly and thus
+ don't care too much about the portability of the output to other
+ environments.
+
+`-S NUM'
+ Set the maximum number of pages in each `section'. This option is
+ most commonly used with the `-i' option; see its description above
+ for more information.
+
+`-t PAPERTYPE'
+ Set the paper type to PAPERTYPE, usually defined in one of the
+ configuration files, along with the appropriate PostScript code to
+ select it (*note Config file paper sizes::). You can also specify
+ a PAPERTYPE of `landscape', which rotates a document by 90
+ degrees. To rotate a document whose paper type is not the
+ default, you can use the `-t' option twice, once for the paper
+ type, and once for `landscape'. You should not use any `-t'
+ option when TeX writes a `papersize' special, as is done by some
+ LaTeX packages, e.g., `hyperref.sty'.
+
+`-T HSIZE,VSIZE'
+ Set the paper size to (HSIZE,VSIZE), a comma-separated pair of
+ dimensions such as `.1in,-.3cm' (*note papersize special::). It
+ overrides any paper size special in the DVI file. Be careful, as
+ the paper size will stick to a predefined size if there is one
+ close enough. To disable this behavior, use `-tunknown'.
+
+`-u PSMAPFILE'
+ Set PSMAPFILE to be the file that dvips uses for looking up
+ PostScript font aliases. If PSMAPFILE begins with a `+'
+ character, then the rest of the name is used as the name of the
+ map file, and the map file is appended to the list of map files
+ (instead of replacing the list). In either case, if the name has
+ no extension, then `.map' is added at the end.
+
+`-U*'
+ Disable a PostScript virtual memory-saving optimization that
+ stores the character metric information in the same string that is
+ used to store the bitmap information. This is only necessary when
+ driving the Xerox 4045 PostScript interpreter, which has a bug
+ that puts garbage on the bottom of each character. Not
+ recommended unless you must drive this printer.
+
+`-v'
+ Print the dvips version number and exit.
+
+`-V*'
+ Download non-resident PostScript fonts as bitmaps. This requires
+ use of `mtpk' or `gsftopk' or `pstopk' or some combination thereof
+ to generate the required bitmap fonts; these programs are supplied
+ with Dvips. The bitmap must be put into `psfonts.map' as the
+ downloadable file for that font. This is useful only for those
+ fonts for which you do not have real outlines, being downloaded to
+ printers that have no resident fonts, i.e., very rarely.
+
+`-x NUM'
+ Set the magnification ratio to NUM/1000. Overrides the
+ magnification specified in the DVI file. Must be between 10 and
+ 100000. It is recommended that you use standard magstep values
+ (1095, 1200, 1440, 1728, 2074, 2488, 2986, and so on) to help
+ reduce the total number of PK files generated. NUM may be a real
+ number, not an integer, for increased precision.
+
+`-X NUM'
+ Set the horizontal resolution in dots per inch to NUM.
+
+`-y NUM'
+ Set the magnification ratio to NUM/1000 times the magnification
+ specified in the DVI file. See `-x' above.
+
+`-Y NUM'
+ Set the vertical resolution in dots per inch to NUM.
+
+`-z*'
+ Pass `html' hyperdvi specials through to the output for eventual
+ distillation into PDF. This is not enabled by default to avoid
+ including the header files unnecessarily, and use of temporary
+ files in creating the output. *Note Hypertext::.
+
+`-Z*'
+ Compress bitmap fonts in the output file, thereby reducing the
+ size of what gets downloaded. Especially useful at high
+ resolutions or when very large fonts are used. May slow down
+ printing, especially on early 68000-based PostScript printers.
+ Generally recommend today, and can be enabled in the configuration
+ file (*note Configuration file commands::).

+3.3 Environment variables
+=========================
+
+Dvips looks for many environment variables, to define search paths and
+other things. The path variables are read as needed, after all
+configuration files are read, so they override values in the
+configuration files. (Except for `TEXCONFIG', which defines where the
+configuration files themselves are found.)
+
+ *Note Path specifications: (kpathsea)Path specifications, for
+details of interpretation of path and other environment variables
+common to all Kpathsea-using programs. Only the environment variables
+specific to Dvips are mentioned here.
+
+`DVIPSFONTS'
+ Default path to search for all fonts. Overrides all the font path
+ config file options and other environment variables (*note
+ Supported file formats: (kpathsea)Supported file formats.).
+
+`DVIPSHEADERS'
+ Default path to search for PostScript header files. Overrides the
+ `H' config file option (*note Configuration file commands::).
+
+`DVIPSMAKEPK'
+ Overrides `mktexpk' as the name of the program to invoke to create
+ missing PK fonts. You can change the arguments passed to the
+ `mktexpk' program with the `MAKETEXPK' environment variable; *note
+ MakeTeX script arguments: (kpathsea)MakeTeX script arguments.
+
+`DVIPSRC'
+ Specifies the name of the startup file (*note Configuration file
+ searching::) which is read after `config.ps' but before any
+ printer-specific configuration files.
+
+`DVIPSSIZES'
+ Last-resort sizes for scaling of unfound fonts. Overrides the `R'
+ definition in config files (*note Configuration file commands::).
+
+`PRINTER'
+ Determine the default printer configuration file. (Dvips itself
+ does not use `PRINTER' to determine the output destination in any
+ way.)
+
+`TEXCONFIG'
+ Path to search for Dvips' `config.PRINTER' configuration files,
+ including the base `config.ps'. Using this single environment
+ variable, you can override everything else. (The printer-specific
+ configuration files are called `PRINTER.cfg' on MS-DOS, but
+ `config.ps' is called by that name on all platforms.)
+
+`TEXPICTS'
+ Path to search for included graphics files. Overrides the `S'
+ config file option (*note Configuration file commands::). If not
+ set, `TEXINPUTS' is looked for. *Note Supported file formats:
+ (kpathsea)Supported file formats.

+
+3.4 Dvips configuration files
+=============================
+
+This section describes in detail the Dvips-specific `config.*' device
+configuration files (called `*.cfg' on MS-DOS), which override the
+`texmf.cnf' configuration files generic to Kpathsea which Dvips also
+reads (*note Config files: (kpathsea)Config files.).
+
+ For information about installing these files, including a prototype
+file you can copy, *note config.ps installation::.

+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Configuration file searching, Next: Configuration file commands, Up: Config files
+
+3.4.1 Configuration file searching
+----------------------------------
+
+The Dvips program loads many different configuration files, so that
+parameters can be set globally across the system, on a per-device basis,
+or individually by each user.
+
+ 1. Dvips first reads (if it exists) `config.ps'; it is searched for
+ along the path for Dvips configuration files, as described in
+ *Note Supported file formats: (kpathsea)Supported file formats.
+
+ 2. A user-specific startup file is loaded, so individual users can
+ override any options set in the global file. The environment
+ variable `DVIPSRC', if defined, is used as the specification of
+ the startup file. If this variable is undefined, Dvips uses a
+ platform-specific default name. On Unix Dvips looks for the
+ default startup file under the name `$HOME/.dvipsrc', which is in
+ the user's home directory. On MS-DOS and MS-Windows, where users
+ generally don't have their private directories, the startup file
+ is called `dvips.ini' and it is searched for along the path for
+ Dvips configuration files (as described in *Note Supported file
+ formats: (kpathsea)Supported file formats.); users are expected to
+ set this path as they see fit for their taste.
+
+ 3. The command line is read and parsed: if the `-PDEVICE' option is
+ encountered, at that point `config.DEVICE' is loaded. Thus, the
+ printer configuration file can override anything in the site-wide
+ or user configuration file, and it can also override options in
+ the command line up to the point that the `-P' option was
+ encountered. (On MS-DOS, the printer configuration files are
+ called `DEVICE.cfg', since DOS doesn't allow more than 3 characters
+ after the dot in filenames.)
+
+ 4. If no `-P' option was specified, and also the `-o' and `-f'
+ command line options were not used, Dvips checks the environment
+ variable `PRINTER'. If it exists, then `config.$PRINTER'
+ (`$PRINTER.cfg' on MS-DOS) is loaded (if it exists).
+
+
+ Because the `.dvipsrc' file is read before the printer-specific
+configuration files, individual users cannot override settings in the
+latter. On the other hand, the `TEXCONFIG' path usually includes the
+current directory, and can in any case be set to anything, so the users
+can always define their own printer-specific configuration files to be
+found before the system's.
+
+ A few command-line options are treated specially, in that they are
+not overridden by configuration files:
+
+`-D'
+ As well as setting the resolution, this unsets the mode, if the
+ mode was previously set from a configuration file. If
+ `config.$PRINTER' is read, however, any `D' or `M' lines from
+ there will take effect.
+
+`-mode'
+ This overrides any mode setting (`M' line) in configuration files.
+ `-mode' does not affect the resolution.
+
+`-o'
+ This overrides any output setting (`o' line) in configuration
+ files.
+
+
+ The purpose of these special cases is to (1) minimize the chance of
+having a mismatched mode and resolution (which `mktexpk' cannot
+resolve), and (2) let command-line options override config files where
+possible.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Configuration file commands, Prev: Configuration file searching, Up: Config files
+
+3.4.2 Configuration file commands
+---------------------------------
+
+Most of the configuration file commands are similar to corresponding
+command line options, but there are a few exceptions. When they are the
+same, we omit the description here.
+
+ As with command line options, many may be turned off by suffixing the
+letter with a zero (`0').
+
+ Within a configuration file, empty lines, and lines starting with a
+space, asterisk, equal sign, percent sign, or pound sign are ignored.
+There is no provision for continuation lines.
+
+`@ NAME HSIZE VSIZE'
+ Define paper sizes. *Note Config file paper sizes::.
+
+`a*'
+ Memory conservation. Same as `-a', *note Option details::.
+
+`b #COPIES'
+ Multiple copies. Same as `-b', *note Option details::.
+
+`D DPI'
+ Output resolution. Same as `-D', *note Option details::.
+
+`e NUM'
+ Max drift. Same as `-e', *note Option details::.
+
+`E COMMAND'
+ Executes the command listed with `system'(3); can be used to get
+ the current date into a header file for inclusion, for instance.
+ Possibly dangerous; this may be disabled, in which case a warning
+ will be printed if the option is used (and warnings are not
+ suppressed).
+
+`f*'
+`F'
+ Run as a filter. Same as `-f', *note Option details::.
+
+`h HEADER'
+ Prepend HEADER to output. Same as `h-', *note Option details::.
+
+`H PATH'
+ Use PATH to search for PostScript header files. The environment
+ variable `DVIPSHEADERS' overrides this.
+
+`i N'
+ Make multiple output files. Same as `-i -S N', *note Option
+ details::.
+
+`j*'
+ Partially download Type 1 fonts. Same as `-j', *note Option
+ details::.
+
+`K*'
+ Remove comments from included PostScript files. Same as `-K',
+ *note Option details::.
+
+`m NUM'
+ Declare NUM as the memory available for fonts and strings in the
+ printer. Default is 180000. This value must be accurate if memory
+ conservation and document splitting is to work correctly. To
+ determine this value, send the following file to the printer:
+
+ %! Hey, we're PostScript
+ /Times-Roman findfont 30 scalefont setfont 144 432 moveto
+ vmstatus exch sub 40 string cvs show pop showpage
+
+ The number printed by this file is the total memory free; it is
+ usually best to tell Dvips that the printer has slightly less
+ memory, because many programs download permanent macros that can
+ reduce the memory in the printer. Some systems or printers can
+ dynamically increase the memory available to a PostScript
+ interpreter, in which case this file might return a ridiculously
+ low number; for example, the NeXT computer and Ghostscript. In
+ these cases, a value of one million works fine.
+
+`M MODE'
+ Metafont mode. Same as `-mode', *note Option details::.
+
+`N*'
+ Disable structured comments. Beware: This also turns off
+ displaying page numbers or changing to specific pagenumbers in
+ PostScript viewers. Same as `-N', *note Option details::.
+
+`o NAME'
+ Send output to NAME. Same as `-o', *note Option details::. In
+ the file `config.foo', a setting like this is probably appropriate:
+ o |lpr -Pfoo
+ The MS-DOS version will emulate spooling to `lpr' by printing to
+ the local printer device `PRN' if it doesn't find an executable
+ program by that name in the current directory or along the `PATH'.
+
+`O XOFF,YOFF'
+ Origin offset. Same as `-O', *note Option details::.
+
+`p [+]NAME'
+ Examine NAME for PostScript font aliases. Default is
+ `psfonts.map'. This option allows you to specify different
+ resident fonts that different printers may have. If NAME starts
+ with a `+' character, then the rest of the name (after any leading
+ spaces) is used as an additional map file; thus, it is possible to
+ have local map files pointed to by local configuration files that
+ append to the global map file. This can be used for font families.
+
+`P PATH'
+ Use PATH to search for bitmap PK font files is PATH. The
+ `PKFONTS', `TEXPKS', `GLYPHFONTS', and `TEXFONTS' environment
+ variables override this. *Note Supported file formats:
+ (kpathsea)Supported file formats.
+
+`q*'
+`Q'
+ Run quietly. Same as `-q', *note Option details::.
+
+`r*'
+ Page reversal. Same as `-r', *note Option details::.
+
+`R NUM1 NUM2 ...'
+ Define the list of default resolutions for PK fonts. If a font
+ size actually used in a document is not available and cannot be
+ created, Dvips will scale the font found at the closest of these
+ resolutions to the requested size, using PostScript scaling. The
+ resulting output may be ugly, and thus a warning is issued. To
+ turn this last-resort scaling off, use a line with just the `R'
+ and no numbers.

+4 Paper size and landscape orientation
+**************************************
+
+Most TeX documents at a particular site are designed to use the
+standard paper size (letter size in the United States, A4 in Europe).
+The Dvips program can be customized either sitewide or for a particular
+printer.
+
+ But many documents are designed for other paper sizes. For instance,
+you may want to design a document that has the long edge of the paper
+horizontal. This can be useful when typesetting booklets, brochures,
+complex tables, or many other documents. This type of paper orientation
+is called "landscape" orientation (the default orientation is
+"portrait"). Alternatively, a document might be designed for ledger or
+A3 paper.
+
+ Since the intended paper size is a document design decision, not a
+printing decision, such information should be given in the TeX file and
+not on the Dvips command line. For this reason, Dvips supports a
+`papersize' special. It is hoped that this special will become
+standard over time for TeX previewers and other printer drivers.
+
+ Some LaTeX packages, e.g., `hyperref.sty', write a `papersize'
+special into the DVI file. In this case, you need not and should not
+attempt to override it manually.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* papersize special:: Specifying the paper size in TeX.
+* Config file paper sizes:: Specifying printer- and site-specific sizes.
+* Paper trays:: Changing paper trays automatically.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: papersize special, Next: Config file paper sizes, Up: Paper size and landscape
+
+4.1 `papersize' special
+=======================
+
+The format of the `papersize' special is
+
+ \special{papersize=WIDTH,HEIGHT}
+
+WIDTH is the horizontal size of the page, and HEIGHT is the vertical
+size. The dimensions supported are the same as for TeX; namely, in
+(inches), cm (centimeters), mm (millimeters), pt (points), sp (scaled
+points), bp (big points, the same as the default PostScript unit), pc
+(picas), dd (didot points), and cc (ciceros).
+
+ For a US letter size landscape document, the `papersize' would be:
+ \special{papersize=11in,8.5in}
+
+An alternate specification of `landscape':
+ \special{landscape}
+
+This is supported for backward compatibility, but it is hoped that
+reventually the `papersize' comment will dominate.
+
+ Of course, such a `\special' only informs Dvips of the desired paper
+size; you must also adjust `\hsize' and `\vsize' in your TeX document
+typeset to those dimensions.
+
+ The `papersize' special must occur somewhere on the first page of
+the document.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Config file paper sizes, Next: Paper trays, Prev: papersize special, Up: Paper size and landscape
+
+4.2 Configuration file paper size command
+=========================================
+
+The `@' command in a configuration file sets the paper size defaults
+and options. The first `@' command defines the default paper size. It
+has three possible parameters:
+
+ @ [NAME [HSIZE VSIZE]]
+
+ If `@' is specified on a line by itself, with no parameters, it
+instructs Dvips to discard all previous paper size information (possibly
+from another configuration file).
+
+ If three parameters are given, with the first parameter being a name
+and the second and third being a dimension (as in `8.5in' or `3.2cc',
+just like in the `papersize' special), then the option is interpreted
+as starting a new paper size description, where NAME is the name and
+HSIZE and VSIZE define the horizontal and vertical size of the sheet of
+paper, respectively. For example:
+
+ @ letterSize 8.5in 11in
+
+ If both HSIZE and VSIZE are zero (you must still specify units!)
+then any page size will match. If the `@' character is immediately
+followed by a `+' sign, then the remainder of the line (after skipping
+any leading blanks) is treated as PostScript code to send to the
+printer, presumably to select that particular paper size:
+
+ @ letter 8.5in 11in
+ @+ %%BeginPaperSize: Letter
+ @+ letter
+ @+ %%EndPaperSize
+
+ After all that, if the first character of the line is an exclamation
+point, then the line is put in the initial comments section of the final
+output file; else, it is put in the setup section of the output file.
+For example:
+
+ @ legal 8.5in 14in
+ @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: Legal
+ @+ %%BeginPaperSize: Legal
+ @+ legal
+ @+ %%EndPaperSize
+
+ When Dvips has a paper format name given on the command line, it
+looks for a match by the NAME; when it has a `papersize' special, it
+looks for a match by dimensions. The first match found (in the order
+the paper size information is found in the configuration file) is used.
+If nothing matches, a warning is printed and the first paper size is
+used. The dimensions must match within a quarter of an inch. Landscape
+mode for all paper sizes is automatically supported.
+
+ If your printer has a command to set a special paper size, then give
+dimensions of `0in 0in'; the PostScript code that sets the paper size
+can refer to the dimensions the user requested as `hsize' and `vsize';
+these will be macros defined in the PostScript that return the
+requested size in default PostScript units. Virtually all of the
+PostScript commands you use here are device-dependent and degrade the
+portability of the file; that is why the default first paper size entry
+should not send any PostScript commands down (although a structured
+comment or two would be okay). Also, some printers want
+`BeginPaperSize' comments and paper size setting commands; others (such
+as the NeXT) want `PaperSize' comments and they will handle setting the
+paper size. There is no solution I could find that works for both
+(except maybe specifying both).
+
+ The Perl 5 script `contrib/mkdvipspapers' in the distribution
+directory may help in determining appropriate paper size definitions.
+
+ If your printers are configured to use A4 paper by default, the
+configuration file (probably the global `config.ps' in this case)
+should include this as the first `@' command:
+
+ @ A4size 210mm 297mm
+ @+ %%PaperSize: A4
+
+so that `A4size' is used as the default, and not `A4' itself; thus, no
+PostScript `a4' command is added to the output file, unless the user
+explicitly says to use paper size `a4'. That is, by default, no paper
+size PostScript command should be put in the output, but Dvips will
+still know that the paper size is A4 because `A4size' is the first (and
+therefore default) size in the configuration file.
+
+ Executing the `letter' or `a4' or other PostScript operators cause
+the document to be nonconforming and can cause it not to print on
+certain printers, so the default paper size should not execute such an
+operator if at all possible.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Paper trays, Prev: Config file paper sizes, Up: Paper size and landscape
+
+4.3 Paper trays
+===============
+
+Some printers, such as the Hewlett-Packard HP4si, have multiple paper
+trays. You can set up Dvips to take advantage of this using the
+`bop-hook' PostScript variable (*note PostScript hooks::).
+
+ For example, suppose you have an alternate tray stocked with
+letterhead paper; the usual tray has the usual paper. You have a
+document where you want the first page printed on letterhead, and the
+remaining pages on the usual paper. You can create a header file, say
+`firstletterhead.PS', with the following (PostScript) code (`bop-hook'
+is passed the current physical page number, which starts at zero):
+
+ /bop-hook { dup 0 eq { ALTERNATETRAY } { NORMALTRAY } ifelse } def
+
+where ALTERNATETRAY and NORMALTRAY are the appropriate commands to
+select the paper trays. On the 4SI, ALTERNATETRAY is `statusdict begin
+1 setpapertray end' and NORMALTRAY is `statusdict begin 0 setpapertray
+end'.
+
+ Then, include the file with either
+ * the `-h' command-line option (*note Option details::); or
+
+ * the `h' config file option (*note Configuration file commands::);
+ or
+
+ * `\special{header=FILE}' in your TeX document (*note Including
+ headers from TeX: Including headers from TeX.).

+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Bounding box, Next: \includegraphics, Up: PostScript figures
+
+5.1.1 The bounding box comment
+------------------------------
+
+The most important feature of a good PostScript file from the standpoint
+of including it in another document is an accurate bounding box comment.
+Every well-formed PostScript file has a comment describing where on the
+page the graphic is located, and how big that graphic is.
+
+ This information is given as the lower left and upper right corners
+of the box just enclosing the graphic, and is thus referred to as the
+"bounding box". These coordinates are given in the default PostScript
+units (there are precisely 72 PostScript units to the inch, like TeX
+big points) with respect to the lower left corner of the sheet of paper.
+
+ To see if a PostScript file has a bounding box comment, just look at
+the first few lines of the file. PostScript files are standard ASCII,
+so you can use any text editor to do this. If within the first few
+dozen lines there is a line like
+
+ %%BoundingBox: 25 50 400 300
+
+(with any reasonable numbers), chances are very good that the file is
+Encapsulated PostScript and will work easily with Dvips. If the file
+contains instead a line like
+
+ %%BoundingBox: (atend)
+
+the file is still probably Encapsulated PostScript, but the bounding box
+is given at the end of the file. Dvips needs it at the beginning. You
+can move it with that same text editor, or a simple script. (The
+bounding box is given in this way when the program that generated the
+PostScript couldn't know the size in advance, or was too lazy to compute
+it.)
+
+ If the document lacks a `%%BoundingBox:' altogether, you can
+determine one in a couple of ways. One is to use the `bbfig' program
+distributed with Dvips in the `contrib' directory. This can usually
+find the correct bounding box automatically; it works best with
+Ghostscript.
+
+ If the comment looks like this:
+ %%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
+
+the graphic claims to take up an entire sheet of paper. This is
+usually a symptom of a bug in the program that generated it.
+
+ The other is to do it yourself: print the file. Now, take a ruler,
+and make the following measurements (in PostScript units, so measure in
+inches and multiply by 72): From the left edge of the paper to the
+leftmost mark on the paper is LLX, the first number. From the bottom
+edge of the paper to the bottommost mark on the paper is LLY, the
+second number. From the left edge of the paper to the rightmost mark
+on the paper is URX, the third number. The fourth and final number,
+URY, is the distance from the bottom of the page to the uppermost mark
+on the paper.
+
+ Once you have the numbers, add a comment of the following form as the
+second line of the document. (The first line should already be a line
+starting with the two characters `%!'; if it is not, the file probably
+isn't PostScript.)
+
+ %%BoundingBox: LLX LLY URX URY
+
+Or, if you don't want to modify the file, you can simply write these
+numbers down in a convenient place and give them in your TeX document
+when you import the graphic, as described in the next section.
+
+ If the document does not have such a bounding box, or if the bounding
+box is given at the end of the document, or the bounding box is wrong,
+please complain to the authors of the software package that generated
+the file.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: \includegraphics, Next: EPSF macros, Prev: Bounding box, Up: PostScript figures
+
+5.1.2 The \includegraphics macro for LaTeX
+------------------------------------------
+
+Once the figure file has a bounding box comment (see the previous
+section) you are ready to import the graphic into a LaTeX document. For
+LaTeX 2e, you can use the epsf, graphics or graphicx packages, but the
+last is recommended--it has the most flexible syntax, and is briefly
+described here. Further information can be found in `grfguide' or
+`epslatex', which should be included in your LaTeX distribution in DVI,
+PDF, or other formats. (If you are still using LaTeX 2.09, use
+epsf.sty).
+
+ Just put the following command into your preamble:
+
+ \usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}
+
+ Depending on your system, a suitable driver setup may already be
+present, so that LaTeX automatically produces DVI files suitable for
+Dvips. In this case you can leave out the `[dvips]' parameter.
+
+ Now, at the point you want to include a file `foo.eps', enter a line
+such as:
+
+ \includegraphics{foo.eps}
+
+ However, it is usually best to omit the file extension and only use
+
+ \includegraphics{foo}
+
+because then you can process the same LaTeX file with different TeX
+engines or DVI converters if you also provide suitable graphics files
+for them, e.g., `foo.pdf' or `foo.png'.
+
+ The \includegraphics command has many options, specified in
+`key=value' syntax, to allow you to resize, rotate or trim the included
+graphic--see `grfguide' or `epslatex'. If your file does not have a
+bounding box comment, you can supply the numbers as determined in the
+previous section, in the same order they would have been in a normal
+bounding box comment:
+
+ \includegraphics[bb=100 100 500 500]{foo.ps}
+
+Now, save your changes and run LaTeX and Dvips; the output should have
+your graphic positioned at precisely the point you indicated, occupying
+the proper amount of space.
+
+ PostScript graphics have their origin in the lower left corner.
+Therefore, in TeX, a graphic will occupy a box that extends far above
+the line where it is put in, but has depth zero below it. Combining
+`\includegraphics' with `\parbox' commands or minipages can sometimes
+be confusing when this is not taken into account.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: EPSF macros, Next: psfile special, Prev: \includegraphics, Up: PostScript figures
+
+5.1.3 Using the EPSF macros
+---------------------------
+
+If you are using LaTeX 2e, use the `graphics' or `graphicx' package.
+*Note \includegraphics::.
+
+ If you are using plain TeX or LaTeX 2.09, you need `epsf.tex' (for
+plain TeX) and `epsf.sty' (for LaTeX). For plain TeX, add a line like
+this near the top of your input file:
+
+ \input epsf
+
+If you are using LaTeX 2.09, add the `epsf' style option, as in:
+
+ \documentstyle[12pt,epsf]{article}
+
+In any case, the above only needs to be done once, no matter how many
+figures you plan to include.
+
+ Now, at the point you want to include a file, enter a line such as:
+
+ \epsffile{foo.eps}
+
+ If you are using LaTeX, you may need to add `\leavevmode'
+immediately before the `\epsffile' command to get certain environments
+to work correctly. If your file does not have a bounding box comment,
+you can supply the numbers as determined in the previous section, in
+the same order they would have been in a normal bounding box comment:
+
+ \epsffile[100 100 500 500]{foo.ps}
+
+Now, save your changes and run TeX and Dvips; the output should have
+your graphic positioned at precisely the point you indicated, occupying
+the proper amount of space.
+
+ The `\epsffile' macro typesets the figure as a TeX `\vbox' at the
+point of the page that the command is executed. By default, the
+graphic will have its `natural' width (namely, the width of its bounding
+box). The TeX box will have depth zero and its natural height. By
+default, the graphic will be scaled by any DVI magnification in effect,
+just as is everything else in your document. See the next section for
+more information on scaling.
+
+ If you want TeX to report the size of the figure as a message on your
+terminal when it processes each figure, give the command:
+
+ \epsfverbosetrue
+
+* Menu:
+
+* EPSF scaling::
+* EPSF clipping::
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: EPSF scaling, Next: EPSF clipping, Up: EPSF macros
+
+5.1.3.1 EPSF scaling
+....................
+
+Usually, you will want to scale an EPSF figure to some size appropriate
+for your document, since its natural size is determined by the creator
+of the EPS file.
+
+ The best way to do this is to assign the desired size to the TeX
+`\epsfxsize' or `\epsfysize' variables, whichever is more convenient
+for you. That is, put
+
+ \epsfxsize=DIMEN
+
+right before the call to `\epsffile'. Then the width of the TeX box
+will be DIMEN and its height will be scaled proportionately.
+Similarly, you can set the vertical size with
+
+ \epsfysize=DIMEN
+
+in which case the height will be set and the width scaled
+proportionally.
+
+ If you set both, both will be honored, but the aspect ratio of the
+included graphic may necessarily be distorted, i.e., its contents
+stretched in one direction or the other.
+
+ You can resize graphics in a more general way by redefining the
+`\epsfsize' macro. `\epsffile' calls this with two parameters: the
+natural horizontal and vertical sizes of the PostScript graphic.
+`\epsfsize' must expand to the desired horizontal size, that is, the
+width of the `\vbox'. Schematically:
+
+ \def\epsfsize#1#2{BODY}
+
+ Some useful definitions of BODY:
+
+`\epsfxsize'
+ This definition (the default) enables the default features listed
+ above, by setting `\epsfxsize' to the same value it had before the
+ macro was called.
+
+`#1'
+ Force the natural size by returning the first parameter (the
+ original width).
+
+`0pt'
+ A special case, equivalent to `#1'.
+
+`0.5#1'
+ Scale to half the natural size.
+
+`\hsize'
+ Scale to the current `\hsize'. (In LaTeX, use `\textwidth'
+ instead of `\hsize'.)
+
+`\ifnum#1>\hsize\hsize\else#1\fi'
+ If the natural width is greater than the current `\hsize', scale to
+ `\hsize', otherwise use the natural width.
+
+
+ For compatibility with other PostScript drivers, it is possible to
+turn off the default scaling of included figures by the DVI
+magnification with the following TeX command:
+
+ \special{! /magscale false def}
+
+Use of this command is not recommended because it will make the
+`\epsffile' graphics the "wrong" size if global magnification is being
+used, and it will cause any PostScript graphics to appear improperly
+scaled and out of position if a DVI to DVI program is used to scale or
+otherwise modify the document.
+
+ DVI magnification is not applied to any output from code you write in
+`bop-hook' or its ilk (*note PostScript hooks::),
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: EPSF clipping, Prev: EPSF scaling, Up: EPSF macros
+
+5.1.3.2 EPSF clipping
+.....................
+
+By default, clipping is disabled for included EPSF images. This is
+because clipping to the bounding box dimensions often cuts off a small
+portion of the figure, due to slightly inaccurate bounding box
+arguments. The problem might be subtle; lines around the boundary of
+the image might be half their intended width, or the tops or bottoms of
+some text annotations might be sliced off. If you want to turn
+clipping on, just use the command
+
+ \epsfclipon
+
+and to turn clipping back off, use
+
+ \epsfclipoff
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: psfile special, Next: Dynamic creation of graphics, Prev: EPSF macros, Up: PostScript figures
+
+5.1.4 `psfile' special
+----------------------
+
+The basic special for file inclusion is as follows:
+
+ \special{psfile=FILENAME.ps [KEY=VALUE] ... }
+
+This downloads the PostScript file `FILENAME.ps' such that the current
+point will be the origin of the PostScript coordinate system. The
+optional KEY=VALUE assignments allow you to specify transformations on
+the PostScript.
+
+ The possible KEYs are:
+
+`hoffset'
+ The horizontal offset (default 0)
+
+`voffset'
+ The vertical offset (default 0)
+
+`hsize'
+ The horizontal clipping size (default 612)
+
+`vsize'
+ The vertical clipping size (default 792)
+
+`hscale'
+ The horizontal scaling factor (default 100)
+
+`vscale'
+ The vertical scaling factor (default 100)
+
+`angle'
+ The rotation (default 0)
+
+`clip'
+ Enable clipping to the bounding box
+
+ The dimension parameters are all given in PostScript units. The
+`hscale' and `vscale' are given in non-dimensioned percentage units,
+and the rotation value is specified in degrees. Thus
+
+ \special{psfile=foo.ps hoffset=72 hscale=90 vscale=90}
+
+will shift the graphics produced by file `foo.ps' right by one inch and
+will draw it at 0.9 times normal size. Offsets are given relative to
+the point of the special command, and are unaffected by scaling or
+rotation. Rotation is counterclockwise about the origin. The order of
+operations is to rotate the figure, scale it, then offset it.
+
+ For compatibility with older PostScript drivers, it is possible to
+change the units that `hscale' and `vscale' are given in. This can be
+done by redefining `@scaleunit' in `SDict' by a TeX command such as
+
+ \special{! /@scaleunit 1 def}
+
+The `@scaleunit' variable, which is by default 100, is what `hscale'
+and `vscale' are divided by to yield an absolute scale factor.

+
+5.1.5 Dynamic creation of PostScript graphics files
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+PostScript is an excellent page description language--but it does tend
+to be rather verbose. Compressing PostScript graphics files can reduce
+them by factor of five or more. For this reason, if the name of an
+included PostScript file ends with `.Z' or `.gz', Dvips automatically
+runs `gzip -d'. For example:
+
+ \epsffile[72 72 540 720]{foo.ps.gz}
+
+Since the results of such a command are not accessible to TeX, if you
+use this facility with the `epsf' macros, you need to supply the
+bounding box parameter yourself, as shown.
+
+ More generally, if the filename parameter to one of the graphics
+inclusion techniques starts with a left quote (``'), the parameter is
+instead interpreted as a command to execute that will send the actual
+file to standard output. For example:
+
+ \special{psfile="`gnuplot foo"}
+
+to include the file `foo'. Of course, the command to be executed can
+be anything, including using a file conversion utility such as `tek2ps'
+or whatever is appropriate. This feature can be disabled with the `-R'
+command-line option or `R' configuration option.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Fonts in figures, Prev: Dynamic creation of graphics, Up: PostScript figures
+
+5.1.6 Fonts in figures
+----------------------
+
+You can use any font available to TeX and Dvips within a graphics file
+by putting a `%*Font:' line in the leading commentary of the file.
+Schematically, this looks like:
+
+ %*Font: TFMNAME SCALEDBP DESIGNBP HEX-START:HEX-BITSTRING
+
+ Here is the meaning of each of these elements:
+
+TFMNAME
+ The TeX TFM filename, e.g., `cmr10'. You can give the same
+ TFMNAME on more than one `%*Font' line; this is useful when the
+ number of characters from the font used needs a longer
+ HEX-BITSTRING (see item below) than conveniently fits on one line.
+
+SCALEDBP
+ The size at which you are using the font, in PostScript points (TeX
+ big points). 72bp = 72.27pt = 1in.
+
+DESIGNBP
+ The designsize of the font, again in PostScript points. This
+ should match the value in the TFM file TFMNAME. Thus, for `cmr10',
+ it should be `9.96265'.
+

+
+5.2 PostScript header files
+===========================
+
+"Header files" are bits of PostScript included in the output file;
+generally they provide support for special features, rather than
+producing any printed output themselves. You can explicitly request
+downloading header files if necessary for some figure, or to achieve
+some special effect.
+
+ Dvips includes some headers on its own initiative, to implement
+features such as PostScript font reencoding, bitmap font downloading,
+handling of `\special''s, and so on. These standard headers are the
+`.pro' files (for "prologue") in the installation directory
+`$(psheaderdir)'; they are created from the `.lpro' ("long prologue")
+files in the distribution by stripping comments, squeezing blank lines,
+etc., for maximum efficiency. If you want to peruse one of the
+standard header files, read the `.lpro' version.
+
+ The PostScript dictionary stack will be at the `userdict' level when
+header files are included.

+
+5.2.1 Including headers from TeX
+--------------------------------
+
+In order to get a particular graphic file to work, a certain font or
+header file might need to be sent first. The Dvips program provides
+support for this with the `header' `\special'. For instance, to ensure
+that `foo.ps' gets downloaded:
+
+ \special{header=foo.ps}
+
+ As another example, if you have some PostScript code that uses a
+PostScript font not built into your printer, you must download it to the
+printer. If the font isn't used elsewhere in the document, Dvips can't
+know you've used it, so you must include it in the same way, as in:
+
+ \special{header=putr.pfa}
+
+to include the font definition file for Adobe Utopia Roman.
+
+ The `header' also special allows for specifying some additional code
+that should be inserted into the PostScript document before and after
+the file itself, as follows:
+
+ \special{header={foo.ps} pre={pre code} post={post code}}
+
+ This will insert `pre code' just before `foo.ps' and `post code'
+just after. It is required to use the (balanced) braces in _all_ of
+the arguments, including the `header', when using this extended syntax.
+
+ This allows, for instance, dynamic headers, where some of the content
+depends on settings from the user in (La)TeX. Another application is
+the inclusion of graphics inside the PostScript header, so that they
+can be reused throughout the document, as with logs. That avoids
+including the same graphic several times. This is implemented in the
+`graphics/graphicx-psmin' package.
+
+ This extended syntax has one additional feature. When Dvips finds the
+extended syntax, it will also look in the installed `tex/' tree(s) for
+the header file (`foo.ps' in our example), and not only in the current
+directory and dvips tree as the original syntax does. This is because
+common graphics may well come with packages which are installed in the
+`tex/' tree.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Including headers from the command line, Next: Headers and memory usage, Prev: Including headers from TeX, Up: Header files
+
+5.2.2 Including headers from the command line
+---------------------------------------------
+
+You can include headers when you run Dvips, as well as from your
+document (see the previous section). To do this, run Dvips with the
+option `-P HEADER'; this will read the file `config.HEADER', which in
+turn can specify a header file to be downloaded with the `h' option.
+*Note Configuration file commands::. These files are called
+`HEADER.cfg' on MS-DOS.
+
+ You can arrange for the same file to serve as a `-P' config file and
+the downloadable header file, by starting the lines of PostScript code
+with a space, leaving only the `h' line and any comments starting in
+the first column. As an example, see `contrib/volker/config.*'
+(`contrib/volker/*.cfg' on MS-DOS). (These files also perform useful
+functions: controlling duplex/simplex mode on duplex printers, and
+setting various screen frequencies; `contrib/volker/README' explains
+further.)
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Headers and memory usage, Prev: Including headers from the command line, Up: Header files
+
+5.2.3 Headers and memory usage
+------------------------------
+
+Dvips tries to avoid overflowing the printer's memory by splitting the
+output files into "sections" (see the `-i' option in *Note Option
+details::). Therefore, for all header files, Dvips debits the printer
+VM budget by some value. If the header file has, in its leading
+commentary a line of the form
+
+ %%VMusage: MIN MAX
+
+then MAX is used. If there is no `%%VMusage' line, then the size (in
+bytes) of the header file is used as an approximation.
+
+ Illustrations (figure files) are also checked for `%%VMusage' line.

+5.3 Literal PostScript
+======================
+
+You can include literal PostScript code in your document in several
+ways.

+* " special:: To include inline PostScript code.

+
+5.3.1 `"' special: Literal PostScript
+-------------------------------------
+
+For simple graphics, or just for experimentation, literal PostScript
+code can be included. Simply use a `\special' beginning with a double
+quote character `"'; there is no matching closing `"'.
+
+ For instance, the following (simple) graphic:
+
+ [ picture of a grey triangle ]
+
+was created by typing:
+
+ \vbox to 100bp{\vss % a bp is the same as a PostScript unit
+ \special{" newpath 0 0 moveto 100 100 lineto 394 0 lineto
+ closepath gsave 0.8 setgray fill grestore stroke}}
+
+ You are responsible for leaving space for such literal graphics, as
+with the `\vbox' above.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: ps special, Next: PostScript hooks, Prev: " special, Up: Literal PS
+
+5.3.2 `ps' special
+------------------
+
+Generally, Dvips encloses specials in a PostScript save/restore pair,
+guaranteeing that the special will have no effect on the rest of the
+document. The `ps' special, however, allows you to insert literal
+PostScript instructions without this protective shield; you should
+understand what you're doing (and you shouldn't change the PostScript
+graphics state unless you are willing to take the consequences). This
+command can take many forms because it has had a torturous history; any
+of the following will work:
+
+ \special{ps:TEXT}
+ \special{ps::TEXT}
+ \special{ps::[begin]TEXT}
+ \special{ps::[end]TEXT}
+
+(with longer forms taking precedence over shorter forms, when they are
+present). `ps::' and `ps::[end]' do no positioning, so they can be
+used to continue PostScript literals started with `ps:' or
+`ps::[begin]'.
+
+ In addition, the variant
+
+ \special{ps: plotfile FILENAME}
+
+inserts the contents of FILENAME verbatim into the output (except for
+omitting lines that begin with %). An example of the proper use of
+literal specials can be found in the file `rotate.tex', which makes it
+easy to typeset text turned in multiples of 90 degrees.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Literal headers, Next: Literal examples, Prev: PostScript hooks, Up: Literal PS
+
+5.3.3 Literal headers: `!' `\special'
+-------------------------------------
+
+You can download literal PostScript header code in your TeX document,
+for use with (for example) literal graphics code that you include later.
+The text of a `\special' beginning with an `!' is copied into the
+output file. A dictionary `SDict' will be current when this code is
+executed; Dvips arranges for `SDict' to be first on the dictionary
+stack when any PostScript graphic is included, whether literally (the
+`"' special) or through macros (e.g., `epsf.tex').
+
+ For example:
+
+ \special{! /reset { 0 0 moveto} def}
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: PostScript hooks, Next: Literal headers, Prev: ps special, Up: Literal PS
+
+5.3.4 PostScript hooks
+----------------------
+
+Besides including literal PostScript at a particular place in your
+document (as described in the previous section), you can also arrange to
+execute arbitrary PostScript code at particular times while the
+PostScript is printing.
+
+ If any of the PostScript names `bop-hook', `eop-hook', `start-hook',
+or `end-hook' are defined in `userdict', they will be executed at the
+beginning of a page, end of a page, start of the document, and end of a
+document, respectively.
+
+ When these macros are executed, the default PostScript coordinate
+system and origin is in effect. Such macros can be defined in headers
+added by the `-h' option or the `header=' special, and might be useful
+for writing, for instance, `DRAFT' across the entire page, or, with the
+aid of a shell script, dating the document. These macros are executed
+outside of the save/restore context of the individual pages, so it is
+possible for them to accumulate information, but if a document must be
+divided into sections because of memory constraints, such added
+information will be lost across section breaks.
+
+ The single argument to `bop-hook' is the physical page number; the
+first page gets zero, the second one, etc. `bop-hook' must leave this
+number on the stack. None of the other hooks are passed arguments.
+
+ As an example of what can be done, the following special will write
+a light grey `DRAFT' across each page in the document:
+
+ \special{!userdict begin /bop-hook{gsave 200 30 translate
+ 65 rotate /Times-Roman findfont 216 scalefont setfont
+ 0 0 moveto 0.7 setgray (DRAFT) show grestore}def end}
+
+ Using `bop-hook' or `eop-hook' to preserve information across pages
+breaks compliance with the Adobe document structuring conventions, so
+if you use any such tricks, you may also want to use the `-N' option to
+turn off structured comments (such as `%%Page'). Otherwise, programs
+that read your file will assume its pages are independent.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Literal examples, Prev: Literal headers, Up: Literal PS
+
+5.3.5 Literal examples
+----------------------
+
+To finish off this section, the following examples of literal PostScript
+are presented without explanation:
+
+ \def\rotninety{\special{ps:currentpoint currentpoint translate 90
+ rotate neg exch neg exch translate}}\font\huge=cmbx10 at 14.4truept
+ \setbox0=\hbox to0pt{\huge A\hss}\vskip16truept\centerline{\copy0
+ \special{ps:gsave}\rotninety\copy0\rotninety\copy0\rotninety
+ \box0\special{ps:grestore}}\vskip16truept
+
+ [ There are 4 `A' characters, each rotated 90 degrees about a
+common center point ]
+
+ \vbox to 2truein{\special{ps:gsave 0.3 setgray}\hrule height 2in
+ width\hsize\vskip-2in\special{ps:grestore}\font\big=cminch\big
+ \vss\special{ps:gsave 1 setgray}\vbox to 0pt{\vskip2pt
+ \line{\hss\hskip4pt NEAT\hss}\vss}\special{ps:0 setgray}%
+ \hbox{\raise2pt\line{\hss NEAT\hss}\special{ps:grestore}}\vss}
+
+ [ There is a big gray box with the word `NEAT' inside in big letters
+]
+
+ Some caveats are in order, however. Make sure that each `gsave' is
+matched with a `grestore' on the same page. Do not use `save' and
+`restore'; they can interact with the PostScript generated by Dvips if
+care is not taken. Try to understand what the above macros are doing
+before writing your own. The `\rotninety' macro especially has a
+useful trick that appears again and again.

+5.4 HyperTeXt
+=============
+
+Dvips has support for producing hypertext PostScript documents. If you
+specify the `-z' option, the `html:' specials described below will be
+converted into `pdfmark' PostScript operators to specify links.
+Without `-z', `html:' specials are ignored.
+
+ The resulting PostScript can then be processed by a distiller
+program to make a PDF file. (It can still be handled by ordinary
+PostScript interpreters as well.) Various versions of both PC and Unix
+distillers are supported; Ghostscript includes limited distiller support
+(*note Ghostscript installation::).
+
+ Macros you can use in your TeX document to insert the specials in the
+first place are available from `CTAN:/support/hypertex'. For CTAN
+info, *note unixtex.ftp: (kpathsea)unixtex.ftp.
+
+ This hypertext support (and original form of the documentation) was
+written by Mark Doyle and Tanmoy Bhattacharya as the `dvihps' program.
+You can retrieve their software and additional documentation via the
+CTAN reference above. You may also be interested in the Java previewer
+IDVI, available at `http://www.win.tue.nl/~dickie/idvi', and/or in

+
+5.4.1 Hypertext caveats
+-----------------------
+
+If you intend to go all the way to PDF, you may want to use the standard
+35 PostScript fonts exclusively, since other fonts are embedded as
+bitmaps by default. The Adobe PDF readers are extremely slow when
+dealing with bitmap fonts and the results look terrible on the screen.
+Printouts will probably look fine, but may not take full advantage of a
+high-resolution printer. Alternatively, you can have your fonts
+embedded as Type 1 scalable outlines. The resulting PostScript files
+may be larger, but can be effectively rasterized at any resolution.
+They can also be converted to PDF files that can be used effectively at
+any screen or printer resolution.
+
+ To get the TeX fonts embedded in the PostScript file as Type 1 fonts,
+add `-Ppdf' to the dvips command line switches. The printout for a run
+should look something like this:
+
+ dvips report -Ppdf -o report.ps
+ This is dvips(k) 5.86 Copyright 1999 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com)

+
+ An entry like "<cmr10.pfb>" indicates success: dvips found the
+Computer Modern Roman 10 point font in a PostScript Font Binary file,
+translated it to an ASCII encoding, and embedded it. You can confirm
+this by examining the PostScript output file, looking for the section
+starting `%%BeginFont: CMR10' followed by an entry `/FontType 1 def'.
+
+ The `-Ppdf' option requires that the relevant outline (`.pfa' or
+`.pfb') files be installed (*note Font concepts::). For example, the
+`cmr10' file might be in
+`/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cm/cmr10.pfb'. Your TeX
+distribution may make those fonts available in a separate optional
+package (e.g., `tetex-extra' in Debian). Failing that, commercial
+versions of the Computer Modern fonts are available from Blue Sky;
+public domain versions - in particular, the lm fonts, and the cm-super
+fonts, are available from CTAN sites (for CTAN info, *note unixtex.ftp:
+(kpathsea)unixtex.ftp.).
+
+ You can convert a PostScript file to PDF using `distill', which
+comes with Adobe Acrobat, or `ps2pdf', which comes with Ghostscript.
+The `ps2pdf' that comes with `Ghostscript' version 6.0 or earlier will
+not embed Type 1 fonts. Current recommendations are GNU Ghostscript
+6.51 or Aladdin Ghostscript 7.0. You can check the fonts in a PDF file
+with Acrobat Reader by selecting the menu entries `File|Document
+Info|Fonts'.
+
+ Also, the Adobe distillers prior to 2.1 drop trailing space
+characters (character code 32) from strings. Unfortunately, the
+PostScript fonts use this character code for characters other than
+space (notably the Greek letter psi in the `Symbol' font), and so these
+characters are dropped. This bug is fixed in version 2.1.
+
+ If you can't upgrade, One workaround is to change all the trailing
+blanks in strings to a character code that isn't in the font. This works
+because the default behavior is to substitute a blank for a missing
+character, i.e., the distiller is fooled into substituting the right
+character. For instance, with the Blue Sky fonts, you can globally
+replace ` )' with `\200)' (with `sed', for example) and get the desired
+result. With the public domain fonts, you will probably have to use a
+character code in the range 128 to 191 since these fonts duplicate the
+first 32 characters starting at 192 to avoid MS-DOS problems.

+article "Creating quality Adobe PDF files from TeX with DVIPS" by

+5.4.2 Hypertext specials
+------------------------
+
+Current support for the World Wide Web in the TeX system does not
+involve modifying TeX itself. We need only define some specials;

+
+ Like all TeX `\special''s, these produce no visible output, and are
+uninterpreted by TeX itself. They are instructions to DVI processors
+only.
+
+ Here, XURL is a standard WWW uniform resource locator (URL),
+possibly extended with a `#TYPE.STRING' construct, where TYPE is
+`page', `section', `equation', `reference' (for bibliographic
+references), `figure', `table', etc. For example,
+ \special{html:<a href="http://www.maths.tcd.ie/~tim/ch1.dvi#equation.1.1">}
+ is a link to equation (1.1) in an example document by Tim Murphy.

+`href'
+ Creates links in your TeX document. For example:
+ \special{html:<a href="http://www.tug.org/">}\TeX\ Users
+ Group\special{html:</a>}
+ The user will be able to click on the text `TeX Users Group' while
+ running Xdvi and get to the TUG home page. (By the way, this is
+ for illustration. In practice, you most likely want to use macros
+ to insert the `\special' commands; reference above.)
+
+`name'
+ Defines URL targets in your TeX documents, so links can be
+ resolved. For example:
+ \special{html:<a name="paradise">}Paradise\special{html:</a>}
+ is exactly where you are right now.
+ This will resolve an `href="#paradise"'. You'll also have to
+ change the catcode of `#', etc. It's usually easiest to use
+ existing macro packages which take care of all the details, such as
+ `hyperref' for LaTeX. The HyperTeX FAQ
+ (http://arxiv.org/hypertex/) has more information.
+
+`img'
+ Links to an arbitrary external file. Interactively, a viewer is
+ spawned to read the file according to the file extension and your
+ `mailcap' file (see the Xdvi documentation).
+
+`base'
+ Defines a base URL that is prepended to all the `name' targets.
+ Typically unnecessary, as the name of the DVI file being read is
+ used by default.
+
+ The `img' and `base' tags are not yet implemented in Dvips or the
+NeXTSTEP DVI viewer.

+6 PostScript fonts
+******************
+
+Dvips supports the use of PostScript fonts in TeX documents. To use a
+PostScript font conveniently, you need to prepare a corresponding
+virtual font; the program Afm2tfm, supplied with Dvips, helps with that.
+
+ All the necessary support for the standard 35 PostScript fonts
+(`AvantGarde-Book' through `ZapfDingbats'), plus other freely or
+commonly available PostScript fonts is available along with Dvips. To
+use these fonts, you need do nothing beyond what is mentioned in the
+installation procedure (*note Installation::). This chapter is
+therefore relevant only if you are installing new PostScript fonts not
+supplied with Dvips. (Or if you're curious.)

+6.1 Font concepts
+=================
+
+The information needed to typeset using a particular font is contained
+in two files: a "metric file" that contains shape-independent
+information and a "glyph file" that contains the actual shapes of the
+font's characters. A "virtual font" is an optional additional file
+that can specify special ways to construct the characters. TeX itself
+(or LaTeX) look only at the metric file, but DVI drivers such as Dvips
+look at all three of these files.
+
+ An "encoding file" defines the correspondence between the code
+numbers of the characters in a font and their descriptive names. Two
+encoding files used together can describe a reencoding that rearranges,
+i.e., renumbers, the characters of a font.

+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Metric files, Next: Glyph files, Up: Font concepts
+
+6.1.1 Metric files
+------------------
+
+A "metric file" describes properties of the font that are independent
+of what the characters actually look like. Aside from general
+information about the font itself, a metric file has two kinds of
+information: information about individual characters, organized by
+character code, and information about sequences of characters.
+
+ The per-character information specifies the width, height, depth, and
+italic correction of each character in the font. Any might be zero.
+
+ In addition to information on individual characters, the metric file
+specifies "kerning", i.e., adding or removing space between particular
+character pairs. It further specifies "ligature" information: when a
+sequence of input characters should be typeset as a single (presumably
+different) "ligature" character. For example, it's traditional for the
+input `fi' to be typeset as `fi', not as `fi' (with the dot of the `i'
+colliding with `f'). (In English, the only common ligatures are fi,
+fl, ff, ffi, and ffl.)
+
+ Different typesetting systems use different metric file formats:
+
+ * Each Postscript font has an "Adobe font metrics" (`.afm') file.
+ These files are plain text, so you can inspect them easily. You
+ can get AFM files for Adobe's fonts from
+ `ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/Fonts/AFMs'.
+
+ * TeX uses "TeX font metrics" (`.tfm') files. When you say `\font =
+ FONT' in your TeX document, TeX reads a file named `FONT.tfm'.
+ (Well, except for the `texfonts.map' feature; *note Fontmap:
+ (kpathsea)Fontmap.). TeX can then calculate the space occupied by
+ characters from the font when typesetting. In addition, the DVI
+ drivers you use to print or view the DVI file produced by TeX may
+ need to look at the TFM file.
+
+ TFM files are binary (and hence are typically much smaller than AFM
+ files). You can use the `tftopl' program (*note tftopl invocation:
+ (web2c)tftopl invocation.) that comes with TeX to transform a TFM
+ file into a human-readable "property list" (`.pl') file. You can
+ also edit a PL file and transform it back to a TeX-readable TFM
+ with the companion program `pltotf' (*note pltotf invocation:
+ (web2c)pltotf invocation.). Editing metrics by hand is not
+ something you're likely to want to do often, but the capability is
+ there.
+
+ * ATM and other typesetting systems use "printer font metric"
+ (`.pfm') files. These are binary files. They are irrelevant in the
+ TeX world, and not freely available, so we will not discuss them
+ further.
+
+
+ The Afm2tfm program distributed with Dvips converts an AFM file to a
+TFM file and performs other useful transformations as well. *Note
+Invoking afm2tfm::.

+
+6.1.2 Glyph files
+-----------------
+
+Although a metric file (see the previous section) contains information
+about the spatial and other properties of the character at position 75,
+say, it contains nothing about what the character at position 75
+actually looks like. The glyphs--the actual shapes of the letterforms
+in a font--are defined by other files, which we call glyph files. TeX
+itself only reads the TFM file for a font; it does not need to know
+character shapes.
+
+ A "glyph file" is a file that defines the shapes of the characters
+in a font. The shapes can be defined either by outlines or by bitmaps.
+
+ PostScript fonts are defined as "outline fonts": Each character in
+the font is defined by giving the mathematical curves (lines, arcs, and
+splines) that define its contours. Different sizes of a character are
+generated by linearly scaling a single shape. For example, a 10-point
+`A' is simply half the size of a 20-point `A'. Nowadays, outline fonts
+usually also contain "hints"--additional information to improve the
+appearance of the font at small sizes or low resolutions.
+
+ Although various kinds of PostScript outline fonts exist, by far the
+most common, and the only one we will consider, is called "Type 1".
+The glyph files for Postscript Type 1 fonts typically have names ending
+in `.pfa' ("printer font ASCII") or `.pfb' ("printer font binary").
+
+ In contrast, glyph files for Computer Modern and the other standard
+TeX fonts are "bitmap fonts", generated from Metafont (`.mf')
+descriptions. The Metafont program distributed with TeX generates
+bitmaps from these descriptions.
+
+ The glyph files for TeX bitmap fonts are usually stored in "packed
+font" (PK) files. The names of these files end in `.NNNpk', where NNN
+is the resolution of the font in dots per inch. For example,
+`cmr10.600pk' contains the bitmaps for the `cmr10' font at a resolution
+of 600dpi. (On DOS filesystems, it's more likely `dpi600\cmr10.pk'.)
+
+ Metafont actually outputs "generic font" (GF) files, e.g.,
+`cmr10.600gf', but the GF files are usually converted immediately to PK
+format (using the `gftopk' utility that comes with TeX) since PK files
+are smaller and contain the same information. (The GF format is a
+historical artifact.)

+
+6.1.3 Virtual fonts
+-------------------
+
+A "virtual font" is constructed by extracting characters from one or
+more existing fonts and rearranging them, or synthesizing new characters
+in various ways. The explanation in this manual is intended to suffice
+for understanding enough about virtual fonts to use them with Dvips. It
+isn't a reference manual on virtual fonts. For more information: The
+primary document on virtual fonts is Donald E. Knuth, `TUGboat' 11(1),
+Apr. 1990, pp. 13-23, "Virtual Fonts: More Fun for Grand Wizards"
+(`CTAN:/info/virtual-fonts.knuth'; for CTAN info, *note unixtex.ftp:
+(kpathsea)unixtex.ftp.). (Don't be intimidated by the subtitle.)
+
+ A virtual font (`.vf') file specifies, for each character in the
+virtual font, a recipe for typesetting that character. A VF file, like
+a TFM file, is in a compressed binary format. The `vftovp' and
+`vptovf' programs convert a VF file to a human-readable VPL (virtual
+property list) format and back again. *Note vftovp invocation:
+(web2c)vftovp invocation, and *Note vptovf invocation: (web2c)vptovf
+invocation.
+
+ In the case of a PostScript font F being used in a straightforward
+way, the recipe says: character I in the VF font is character J in font
+F. The font F is called a "base font". For example, the VF file could
+remap the characters of the PostScript font to the positions where TeX
+expects to find them. *Note Encodings::.
+
+ Since TeX reads only TFM files, not VF's, each VF must have a
+corresponding TFM for use with TeX. This corresponding TFM is created
+when you run `vptovf'.
+
+ You can "expand" virtual fonts into their base fonts with DVIcopy
+(*note dvicopy invocation: (web2c)dvicopy invocation.). This is useful
+if you are using a DVI translator that doesn't understand vf's itself.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Encodings, Next: PostScript typesetting, Prev: Virtual fonts, Up: Font concepts
+
+6.1.4 Encodings
+---------------
+
+Every font, whatever its type, has an "encoding", that specifies the
+correspondence between "logical" characters and character codes. For
+example, the ASCII encoding specifies that the character numbered 65
+(decimal) is an uppercase `A'. The encoding does not specify what the
+character at that position looks like; there are lots of ways to draw an
+`A', and a glyph file (*note Glyph files::) tells how. Nor does it
+specify how much space that character occupies; that information is in a
+metric file (*note Metric files::).
+
+ TeX implicitly assumes a particular encoding for the fonts you use
+with it. For example, the plain TeX macro `\'', which typesets an
+acute accent over the following letter, assumes the acute accent is at
+position 19 (decimal). This happens to be true of standard TeX fonts
+such as Computer Modern, as you might expect, but it is not true of
+normal PostScript fonts.
+
+ It's possible but painful to change all the macros that assume
+particular character positions. A better solution is to create a new
+font with the information for the acute accent at position 19, where
+TeX expects it to be. *Note Making a font available::.
+
+ PostScript represents encodings as a sequence of 256 character names
+called an "encoding vector". An "encoding file" (`.enc') gives such a
+vector, together with ligature and kerning information (with which we
+are not concerned at the moment). These encoding files are used by the
+Afm2tfm program. Encoding files are also downloaded to the PostScript
+interpreter in your printer if you use one of them in place of the
+default encoding vector for a particular PostScript font.
+
+ Examples of encodings: the `dvips.enc' encoding file that comes with
+Dvips in the `reencode' directory is a good (but not perfect)
+approximation to the TeX encoding for TeX's Computer Modern text fonts.
+This is the encoding of the fonts that originated with Dvips, such as
+`ptmr.tfm'. The distribution includes many other encoding files; for
+example, `8r.enc', which is the base font for the current PostScript
+font distribution, and three corresponding to the TeX mathematics
+fonts: `texmext.enc' for math extensions, `texmital.enc' for math
+italics, and `texmsym.enc' for math symbols.

+
+6.1.5 How PostScript typesets a character
+-----------------------------------------
+
+The output of Dvips is a program in the PostScript language that
+instructs your (presumably PostScript-capable) printer how to typeset
+your document by transforming it into toner on paper. Your printer, in
+turn, contains a PostScript interpreter that carries out the
+instructions in this typesetting program.
+
+ The program must include the definition of any PostScript fonts that
+you use in your document. Fonts built into your printer (probably the
+standard 35: `Times-Roman', `ZapfDingbats', ...) are defined within the
+interpreter itself. Other fonts must be downloaded as pfa or pfb files
+(*note Glyph files::) from your host (the computer on which you're
+running Dvips).
+
+ You may be wondering exactly how a PostScript interpreter figures out
+what character to typeset, with this mass of metrics, glyphs, encodings,
+and other information. (If you're not wondering, skip this section ...)
+
+ The basic PostScript operator for imaging characters is `show'.
+Suppose you've asked TeX to typeset an `S'. This will eventually wind
+up in the Dvips output as the equivalent of this PostScript operation:
+
+ (S) show
+
+Here is how PostScript typesets the `S':
+
+ 1. PostScript interpreters use ASCII; therefore `S' is represented as
+ the integer 83. (Any of the 256 possible characters representable
+ in a standard 8-bit byte can be typeset.)
+
+ 2. A PostScript "dictionary" is a mapping of names to arbitrary
+ values. A font, to the interpreter, is a dictionary which
+ contains entries for certain names. (If these entries are
+ missing, the interpreter refuses to do anything with that font.)
+
+ PostScript has a notion of "the current font"--whatever font is
+ currently being typeset in.
+
+ 3. One of the mandatory entries in a font dictionary is `Encoding',
+ which defines the encoding vector (*note Encodings::) for that
+ font. This vector of 256 names maps each possible input character
+ to a name.
+
+ 4. The interpreter retrieves the entry at position 83 of the encoding
+ vector. This value is a PostScript name: `/S'.
+
+ 5. For Type 1 fonts (we're not going to discuss anything else), the
+ interpreter now looks up `/S' as a key in a dictionary named
+ `CharStrings', another mandatory entry in a font dictionary.
+
+ 6. The value of `S' in `CharStrings' is the equivalent of a series of
+ standard PostScript commands like `curveto', `lineto', `fill', and
+ so on. These commands are executed to draw the character. There
+ can also be "hint information" that helps adapt the character to
+ low-resolution rasters. (*Note Glyph files::.) The commands are
+ actually represented in a more compact way than standard
+ PostScript source; see the Type 1 book for details.
+
+
+ This method for typesetting characters is used in both Level 1 and
+Level 2 PostScript. See the PostScript reference manuals for more
+information.

+
+6.2 Making a PostScript font available
+======================================
+
+To make a PostScript font available in a TeX document, you need to
+install the font on your system and then define it within the document.
+Once you have installed the font, of course, it is available for any
+document thereafter and you don't need to reinstall it. You must have
+an AFM file for any font you install. Unless the font is built into your
+printer, you must also have a PFA or PFB file.
+
+ In the following examples, we use the font `Times-Roman' to
+illustrate the process. But you should use the prebuilt fonts for Times
+and the other standard fonts, rather than rebuilding them. The prebuilt
+fonts are made using a more complicated process than that described
+here, to make them work as well as possible with TeX. So following the
+steps in this manual will not generate files identical to the
+distributed ones. *Note PostScript font installation::, for pointers to
+the prebuilt fonts.
+
+ Installation of a PostScript font proceeds in three steps. *Note
+Font concepts::, for descriptions of the various files involved.
+
+ 1. Run `afm2tfm' to create a TFM file for the original font, and the
+ VPL form of the virtual font:
+ afm2tfm Times-Roman -v ptmr rptmr
+
+ 2. Run `vptovf' to generate a VF and TFM file for the virtual font
+ from the VPL file:
+ vptovf ptmr.vpl ptmr.vf ptmr.tfm
+
+ 3. Insert an entry for the font in `psfonts.map' (*note
+ psfonts.map::):
+ rptmr Times-Roman <ptmr8a.pfa
+
+ 4. Install the files in the standard locations, as in:
+ cp ptmr.vf FONTDIR/vf/...
+ cp *ptmr.tfm FONTDIR/tfm/...
+ cp ptmr.afm FONTDIR/afm/...
+ cp ptmr.pf? FONTDIR/type1/...
+
+ The simplest invocation of Afm2tfm to make virtual fonts goes
+something like this:
+
+ afm2tfm Times-Roman -v ptmr rptmr
+
+This reads the file `Times-Roman.afm', and produces two files as
+output, namely the virtual property list'file `ptmr.vpl', and the "raw"
+font metric file `rptmr.tfm'. To use the font in TeX, you first run
+
+ vptovf ptmr.vpl ptmr.vf ptmr.tfm
+
+You should then install the virtual font file `ptmr.vf' where Dvips
+will see it and install `ptmr.tfm' and `rptmr.tfm' where TeX and Dvips
+will see them.
+
+ Using these raw fonts is not recommended; there are no raw fonts in
+the prebuilt PostScript fonts distributed along with Dvips. But
+nevertheless, that's how Afm2tfm presently operates, so that's what we
+document here. The `r' prefix convention is likewise historical
+accident.
+
+ You can also make more complex virtual fonts by editing `ptmr.vpl'
+before running `vptovf'; such editing might add the uppercase Greek
+characters in the standard TeX positions, for instance. (This has
+already been done for the prebuilt fonts.)
+
+ Once the files have been installed, you're all set. You can now do
+things like this in TeX:
+ \font\myfont = ptmr at 12pt
+ \myfont Hello, I am being typeset in 12-point Times-Roman.
+
+ Thus, we have two fonts, one actual (`rptmr', which is analogous to
+the font in the printer) and one virtual (`ptmr', which has been
+remapped to the standard TeX encoding (almost)), and has typesetting
+know-how added. You could also say
+
+ \font\raw = rptmr at 10pt
+
+and typeset directly with that, but then you would have no ligatures or
+kerning, and you would have to use Adobe character positions for special
+letters like the ligature `AE'. The virtual font `ptmr' not only has
+ligatures and kerning, and most of the standard accent conventions of
+TeX, it also has a few additional features not present in the Computer
+Modern fonts. For example, it includes all the Adobe characters (such
+as the Polish ogonek and the French guillemots). The only things you
+lose from ordinary TeX text fonts are the dotless `j' (which can be
+hacked into the VPL file with literal PostScript specials if you have
+the patience) and uppercase Greek letters (which just don't exist
+unless you buy them separately). *Note Reencoding with Afm2tfm::.
+
+ As a final step you need to record information about both the virtual
+font and the original font (if you ever might want to use it) in the
+`psfonts.map' file (*note psfonts.map::). For our example, you'd
+insert the following into `psfonts.map':
+ rptmr Times-Roman <ptmr8a.pfa
+
+Of course, `Times-Roman' is already built in to most every printer, so
+there's no need to download any Type 1 file for it. But if you are
+actually following these instructions for new fonts, most likely they
+are not built in to the printer.
+
+ These PostScript fonts can be scaled to any size. Go wild! Using
+PostScript fonts, however, does use up a great deal of the printer's
+memory and it does take time. You may find downloading bitmap fonts
+(possibly compressed, with the `Z' option) to be faster than using the
+built-in PostScript fonts.

+
+6.3 Invoking Afm2tfm
+====================
+
+The Afm2tfm program converts an AFM file for a PostScript font to a TFM
+file and a VPL file for a corresponding virtual font (or, in its
+simplest form, to a TFM file for the PostScript font itself). The
+results of the conversion are affected by the command-line options and
+especially by the reencodings you can specify with those options. You
+can also obtain special effects such as an oblique font.
+
+ An alternative to Afm2tfm for creating virtual fonts is Alan
+Jeffrey's `fontinst' program, available from
+`CTAN:fonts/utilities/fontinst' (for CTAN info, *note unixtex.ftp:
+(kpathsea)unixtex.ftp.).

+
+6.3.1 Changing font encodings
+-----------------------------
+
+Afm2tfm allows you to specify a different encoding for a PostScript font
+(for a general introduction to encodings, *note Encodings::). The `-t'
+options changes the TeX encoding, `-p' changes the PostScript encoding,
+and `-T' changes both simultaneously, as detailed in the sections below.

+* Menu:

+* Changing TeX encodings:: Where TeX finds a character.

+* Encoding file format:: Syntax of an encoding file.

+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Changing TeX encodings, Next: Changing PostScript encodings, Up: Changing font encodings
+
+6.3.1.1 `-t': Changing TeX encodings
+....................................
+
+To build a virtual font with Afm2tfm, you specify the `-v' or `-V'
+option. You can then specify an encoding for that virtual font with `-t
+TEX-ENC'. (`-t' is ignored if neither `-v' nor `-V' is present.) Any
+ligature and kerning information you specify in TEX-ENC will be used in
+the VPL, in addition to the ligature and kerning information from the
+AFM file.
+
+ If the AFM file has no entry for a character specified in TEX-ENC,
+that character will be omitted from the output VPL.
+
+ The `-t' option is likely to be needed when you have a PostScript
+font corresponding to a TeX font other than a normal text font such as
+Computer Modern. For instance, if you have a PostScript font that
+contains math symbols, you'd probably want to use the encoding in the
+`texmsym.enc' file supplied with Dvips. (For a start; to actually get
+usable math fonts, you have to define much more than just an encoding.)
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Changing PostScript encodings, Next: Changing both encodings, Prev: Changing TeX encodings, Up: Changing font encodings
+
+6.3.1.2 `-p': Changing PostScript encodings
+...........................................
+
+By default, Afm2tfm uses the encoding it finds in the AFM file. You can
+specify a different PostScript encoding with `-p PS-ENC'. This makes
+the raw TFM file (the one output by Afm2tfm) have the encoding
+specified in the encoding file PS-ENC. Any ligature or kern
+information specified in PS-ENC is ignored by Afm2tfm, since ligkern
+info is always omitted from the raw TFM.
+
+ If you use this option, you must also arrange to download PS-ENC as
+part of any document that uses this font. You do this by adding a line
+like the following one to `psfonts.map' (*note psfonts.map::):
+ zpopr Optima "MyEncoding ReEncodeFont" <myenc.enc
+
+ Using `-p' is the only way to access characters in a PostScript font
+that are neither encoded in the AFM file nor constructed from other
+characters. For instance, Adobe's `Times-Roman' font contains the
+extra characters `trademark' and `registered' (among others); these can
+only be accessed through such a PostScript reencoding.
+
+ The `8r' base encoding used for the current PostScript font
+distribution does do this reencoding, for precisely this reason.

+
+6.3.1.3 `-T': Changing both TeX and PostScript encodings
+........................................................
+
+The option `-T ENC-FILE' is equivalent to `-p ENC-FILE -t ENC-FILE'.
+If you make regular use of a private non-standard reencoding `-T' is
+usually a better idea than the individual options, to avoid unexpected
+inconsistencies in mapping otherwise. An example of when you might use
+this option is a dingbats font: when you have a TeX encoding that is
+designed to be used with a particular PostScript font.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Reencoding with Afm2tfm, Next: Encoding file format, Prev: Changing both encodings, Up: Changing font encodings
+
+6.3.1.4 Reencoding with Afm2tfm
+...............................
+
+The Afm2tfm program creates the TFM and VF files for the virtual font
+corresponding to a PostScript font by "reencoding" the PostScript font.
+Afm2tfm generates these files from two encodings: one for TeX and one
+for PostScript. The TeX encoding is used to map character numbers to
+character names while the PostScript encoding is used to map each
+character name to a possibly different number. In combination, you can
+get access to any character of a PostScript font at any position for
+TeX typesetting.
+
+ In the default case, when you specify none of the `-t', `-p', or
+`-T' options, Afm2tfm uses a default TeX encoding (which mostly
+corresponds to the Computer Modern text fonts) and the PostScript
+encoding found in the AFM file being read. The reencoding is also
+sometimes called a "remapping".
+
+ For example, the default encodings reencode the acute accent in two
+steps: first the default TeX encoding maps the number 19 to the
+character name `acute'; then the default PostScript encoding, as found
+in the AFM file for an ordinary PostScript font, maps the character
+name `acute' to the number 194. (The PostScript encoding works in
+reverse, by looking in the encoding vector for the name and then
+yielding the corresponding number.) The combined mapping of 19 to 194
+shows up explicitly in the VF file and also implicitly in the fact that
+the properties of PostScript character 194 appear in position 19 of the
+TFM file for the virtual font.
+
+ The default encoding of the distributed fonts (e.g., `ptmr.tfm')
+mostly follows plain TeX conventions for accents. The exceptions: the
+Hungarian umlaut (which is at position `0x7D' in `cmr10', but position
+`0xCD' in `ptmr'); the dot accent (at positions `0x5F' and `0xC7',
+respectively); and the Scandinavian A ring `\AA', whose definition
+needs different tweaking. In order to use these accents with
+PostScript fonts or in math mode when `\textfont0' is a PostScript
+font, you will need to use the following definitions. These
+definitions will not work with the Computer Modern fonts for the
+relevant accents. They are already part of the distributed
+`psfonts.sty' for use with LaTeX.
+
+ \def\H#1{{\accent"CD #1}}
+ \def\.#1{{\accent"C7 #1}}
+ \def\dot{\mathaccent"70C7 }
+ \newdimen\aadimen
+ \def\AA{\leavevmode\setbox0\hbox{h}\aadimen\ht0
+ \advance\aadimen-1ex\setbox0\hbox{A}\rlap{\raise.67\aadimen
+ \hbox to \wd0{\hss\char'27\hss}}A}
+
+ As a kind of summary, here are the `CODINGSCHEME's that result from
+the various possible choices for reencoding.
+
+default encoding
+ (CODINGSCHEME TeX text + AdobeStandardEncoding)
+
+`-p dc.enc'

+
+6.3.1.5 Encoding file format
+............................
+
+Afm2tfm's encoding files have the same format as an encoding vector in a
+PostScript font. Here is a skeletal example:
+
+ % Comments are ignored, unless the first word after the percent sign
+ % is `LIGKERN'; see below.
+ /MyEncoding [ % exactly 256 entries follow, each with a leading `/'
+ /Alpha /Beta /Gamma /Delta ...
+ /A /B ... /Z
+ ... /.notdef /xfooaccent /yfooaccent /zfooaccent
+ ] def
+
+ These encoding files are downloaded as part of changing the encoding
+at the PostScript level (see the previous section).
+
+ Comments, which start with a percent sign and continue until the end
+of the line, are ignored unless they start with `LIGKERN' (see below).
+
+ The first non-comment word of the file must start with a forward
+slash `/' (i.e., a PostScript literal name) and defines the name of the
+encoding. The next word must be an left bracket `['. Following that
+must be precisely 256 character names; use `/.notdef' for any that you
+want to leave undefined. Then there must be a matching right bracket
+`]'. A final `def' token is optional. All names are case-sensitive.
+
+ Any ligature or kern information is given as a comment. If the first
+word after the `%' is `LIGKERN', then the entire rest of the line is
+parsed for ligature and kern information. This ligature and kern
+information is given in groups of words: each group is terminated by a
+space and a semicolon and (unless the semicolon is at the end of a
+line) another space.
+
+ In these `LIGKERN' statements, three types of information may be
+specified. These three types are ligature pairs, kerns to ignore, and
+the character value of this font's boundary character.
+
+ Throughout a `LIGKERN' statement, the boundary character is
+specified as `||'. To set the font's boundary character value for TeX:
+
+ % LIGKERN || = 39 ;
+
+ To indicate a kern to remove, give the names of the two characters
+(without the leading slash) separated by `{}', as in `one {} one ;'.
+This is intended to be reminiscent of the way you might use `{}' in a
+TeX file to turn off ligatures or kerns at a particular location.
+Either or both of the character names can be given as `*', which is a
+wild card matching any character; thus, all kerns can be removed with
+`* {} * ;'.
+
+ To specify a ligature, specify the names of the pair of characters,
+followed by the ligature operation (as in Metafont), followed by the
+replacing character name. Either (but not both) of the first two
+characters can be `||' to indicate a word boundary.
+
+ The most common operation is `=:' meaning that both characters are
+removed and replaced by the third character, but by adding the `|'
+character on either side of the `=:', you can retain either or both of
+the two leading characters. In addition, by suffixing the ligature
+operation with one or two `>' signs, you can make the ligature scanning
+operation skip that many resulting characters before proceeding. This
+works just like in Metafont. For example, the `fi' ligature is
+specified with `f i =: fi ;'. A more convoluted ligature is `one one
+|=:|>> exclam ;' which separates a pair of adjacent `1''s with an
+exclamation point, and then skips over two of the resulting characters
+before continuing searching for ligatures and kerns. You cannot give
+more >'s than |'s in an ligature operation, so there are a total of
+eight possibilities:
+
+ =: |=: |=:> =:| =:|> |=:| |=:|> |=:|>>
+
+ The default set of ligatures and kerns built in to Afm2tfm is:
+
+ % LIGKERN question quoteleft =: questiondown ;
+ % LIGKERN exclam quoteleft =: exclamdown ;
+ % LIGKERN hyphen hyphen =: endash ; endash hyphen =: emdash ;
+ % LIGKERN quoteleft quoteleft =: quotedblleft ;
+ % LIGKERN quoteright quoteright =: quotedblright ;
+ % LIGKERN space {} * ; * {} space ; 0 {} * ; * {} 0 ;
+ % LIGKERN 1 {} * ; * {} 1 ; 2 {} * ; * {} 2 ; 3 {} * ; * {} 3 ;
+ % LIGKERN 4 {} * ; * {} 4 ; 5 {} * ; * {} 5 ; 6 {} * ; * {} 6 ;
+ % LIGKERN 7 {} * ; * {} 7 ; 8 {} * ; * {} 8 ; 9 {} * ; * {} 9 ;

+
+Besides the reencodings described in the previous section, Afm2tfm can

+
+ `-s SLANT' makes an obliqued variant, as in:
+
+ afm2tfm Times-Roman -s .167 -v ptmro rptmro
+
+This creates `ptmro.vpl' and `rptmro.tfm'. To use this font, put the
+line
+
+ rptmro Times-Roman ".167 SlantFont"
+
+into `psfonts.map'. Then `rptmro' (our name for the obliqued Times)
+will act as if it were a resident font, although it is actually
+constructed from Times-Roman via the PostScript routine `SlantFont'
+(which will slant everything 1/6 to the right, in this case).
+
+ Similarly, you can get an expanded font with
+
+ afm2tfm Times-Roman -e 1.2 -v ptmrre rptmrre
+
+and by recording the pseudo-resident font
+
+ rptmrre Times-Roman "1.2 ExtendFont"
+
+in `psfonts.map'.
+
+ You can also create a small caps font with a command such as
+
+ afm2tfm Times-Roman -V ptmrc rptmrc
+
+This will generate a set of pseudo-small caps mapped into the usual
+lowercase positions and scaled down to 0.8 of the normal cap
+dimensions. You can also specify the scaling as something other than
+the default 0.8:
+
+ afm2tfm Times-Roman -c 0.7 -V ptmrc rptmrc
+
+ It is unfortunately not possible to increase the width of the small
+caps independently of the rest of the font. If you want a really
+professional looking set of small caps, you need to acquire a small caps
+font.
+
+ To change the `PaintType' in a font from filled (0) to outlined (2),
+you can add `"/PaintType 2 store"' to `psfonts.map', as in the
+following:
+
+ rphvrl Helvetica "/PaintType 2 store"
+
+ Afm2tfm writes to standard output the line you need to add to
+`psfonts.map' to use that font, assuming the font is resident in the
+printer; if the font is not resident, you must add the `<FILENAME'
+command to download the font. Each identical line only needs to be
+specified once in the `psfonts.map' file, even though many different
+fonts (small caps variants, or ones with different output encodings)
+may be based on it.

+6.3.3 Afm2tfm options
+---------------------
+
+Synopsis:
+ afm2tfm [OPTION]... AFMFILE[.afm] [TFMFILE[.tfm]]
+
+ Afm2tfm reads AFMFILE and writes a corresponding (but raw) TFM file.
+If TFMFILE is not supplied, the base name of the AFM file is extended
+with `.tfm' to get the output filename.
+
+ The simplest example:
+
+ afm2tfm Times-Roman rptmr
+
+The TFM file thus created is "raw" because it omits ligature and kern
+information, and does no character remapping; it simply contains the
+character information in the AFM file in TFM form, which is the form
+that TeX understands. The characters have the same code in the TFM
+file as in the AFM file. For text fonts, this means printable ASCII
+characters will work ok, but little else, because standard PostScript
+fonts have a different encoding scheme than the one that plain TeX
+expects (*note Encodings::). Although both schemes agree for the
+printable ASCII characters, other characters such as ligatures and
+accents vary. Thus, in practice, it's almost always desirable to create
+a virtual font as well with the `-v' or `-V' option. *Note Making a
+font available::.
+
+ The command line options to Afm2tfm:
+
+`-c RATIO'
+ See `-V'; overrides the default ratio of 0.8 for the scaling of
+ small caps.
+
+`-e RATIO'
+ Stretch characters horizontally by RATIO; if less than 1.0, you
+ get a condensed font.
+
+`-O'
+ Output all character codes in the `vpl' file as octal numbers, not
+ names; this is useful for symbol or other special-purpose fonts
+ where character names such as `A' have no meaning.
+
+`-p PS-ENC'
+ Use PS-ENC for the destination (PostScript) encoding of the font;
+ PS-ENC must be mentioned as a header file for the font in
+ `psfonts.map'. *Note Changing PostScript encodings::.
+
+`-s SLANT'
+ Slant characters to the right by SLANT. If SLANT is negative, the
+ letters slope to the left (or they might be upright if you start
+ with an italic font).
+
+`-t TEX-ENC'
+ Use TEX-ENC for the target (TeX) encoding of the font. Ligature
+ and kern information may also be specified in FILE. FILE is not
+ mentioned in `psfonts.map'.
+
+`-T PS-TEX-ENC'
+ Use PS-TEX-ENC for both the PostScript and target TeX encodings of
+ the font. Equivalent to `-p FILE -t FILE'.
+
+`-u'
+ Use only those characters specified in the TeX encoding, and no
+ others. By default, Afm2tfm tries to include all characters in the
+ input font, even those not present in the TeX encoding (it puts
+ them into otherwise-unused positions, arbitrarily).
+
+`-v VPL-FILE'
+ Output a VPL (virtual property list) file, as well as a TFM file.
+
+`-V VPL-FILE'
+ Same as `-v', but the virtual font generated is a pseudo small caps
+ font obtained by scaling uppercase letters by 0.8 to typeset
+ lowercase. This font handles accented letters and retains proper
+ kerning.

+
+6.4 `psfonts.map': PostScript font catalog
+==========================================
+
+The `psfonts.map' file associates a PostScript font with related files
+and constructs. Each line has the format:
+
+ FILENAME POSTSCRIPT-NAME OPTIONS
+
+ For example, the line
+ rpstrn StoneInformal <StoneInformal.pfb
+ causes Dvips to download `StoneInformal.pfb' if your document (just
+as if it were a header file, *note Header files::) uses the font
+`StoneInformal'.
+
+ If the `j' config file or command-line option is enabled,
+`StoneInformal.pfb' will be "partially downloaded"--only those
+characters your document actually uses will be extracted and downloaded,
+and the remainder discarded. *Note Option details::.
+
+ Filenames of fonts that are partially downloaded are surrounded by
+curly braces (`{...}') in the progress report Dvips writes to standard
+output. Wholly-downloaded fonts appear inside angle brackets
+(`<...>'), like other downloaded files.
+
+ Adobe Multiple Master fonts, such as Minion, cannot be partially
+downloaded. To partially download in general, but avoid partial
+downloading for individual fonts, use `<<' instead `<':
+ pmnr8r Minion <<Minion.pfb
+
+ You can generate transformed fonts with a line like this:
+ rpstrc StoneInformal <StoneInformal.pfb ".8 ExtendFont"
+
+*Note Special font effects::, for a complete list of font effects.
+
+ You can change the encoding of the Type 1 font at the PostScript
+level with a `ReEncodeFont' instruction, plus the name of the encoding
+file. This allows you access to characters that may be present in the
+Type 1 font file, but not encoded by default--most of the preaccented
+characters, for example. An example:
+ pstrn8r StoneInformal "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <pstrn8a.pfb
+
+ The `8r' encoding mentioned here has been designed to serve as a
+base for all downloadable fonts; it allows access to all the characters
+commonly present in a Type 1 font. For more details, see the `8r.enc'
+source file that comes with (and is installed with) Dvips.
+
+ You may notice that the same syntax is used for downloading encoding
+vectors and Type 1 font files. To make your intentions clear, you can
+also use `<[' to explicitly indicate you are downloading an encoding
+vector, as in:
+ pstrn8r StoneInformal "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <[8r.enc <pstrn8a.pfb
+
+ If the filename of your encoding vector does not end in `.enc', and
+you are using partial font downloading, you must use the `<[' syntax,
+or Dvips will not download the font properly.
+
+ Similarly, the name of the Type 1 font file itself must have
+extension `.pfa' or `.pfb' for partial downloading to work properly.
+
+ When using PFB files, Dvips is smart enough to unpack the binary PFB
+format into printable ASCII so there is no need to perform this
+conversion yourself. In addition, Dvips scans the font to determine its
+memory usage, just as it does for other header files (*note Header
+files::).
+
+ Here is a brief summary of how `psfonts.map' is read:
+
+ 1. If a line is empty or begins with a space, percent, asterisk,
+ semicolon, or hash mark, it is ignored.
+
+ 2. Otherwise, the line is separated into words, where words are
+ separated by spaces or tabs, except that if a word begins with a
+ double quote, it extends until the next double quote or the end of
+ the line.
+
+ 3. If a word starts with `<<', it is taken as a font file to be
+ wholly downloaded. Use this to avoid partial downloading, as
+ described above.
+
+ 4. If a word starts with `<[', it is taken as an encoding file to be
+ downloaded. Use this if the name of the encoding file does end in
+ `.enc', also as described above.
+
+ 5. If a word starts with a `<' character, it is treated as a header
+ file that needs to be downloaded. If the name ends in `.pfa' or
+ `.pfb', it is taken as Type 1 font file that will be partially
+ downloaded if the `j' option is in effect. There can be more than
+ one such header for a given font. If a `<' is a word by itself,
+ the next word is taken as the name of the header file.
+
+ 6. If a word starts with a `"' character, it is taken as PostScript
+ code used in generating that font, and is inserted into the output
+ verbatim at the appropriate point. (And the double quotes
+ beginning and ending the word are removed.)
+
+ 7. Otherwise the word is a name. The first such name is the TFM file
+ that a virtual font file can refer to. If there is a second name,
+ it is used as the PostScript name; if there is only one name, it
+ is used for both the TeX name and the PostScript name.

+7 Color
+*******
+
+Dvips supports one-pass multi-color printing of TeX documents on any
+color PostScript device. Initially added by Jim Hafner, IBM Research,
+<hafner@almaden.ibm.com>, the color support has gone through many
+changes by Tomas Rokicki. Besides the source code support itself, there
+are additional TeX macro files: `colordvi.tex' and `blackdvi.tex', and
+corresponding `.sty' versions for use with LaTeX.
+
+ In this section we describe the use of color from the document
+preparer's point of view and then add some instructions on installation
+for the TeX administrator.

+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Color macro files, Next: User-definable colors, Up: Color
+
+7.1 Color macro files
+=====================
+
+All the color macro commands are defined in `colordvi.tex' (or
+`colordvi.sty'). To access these macros simply add to the top of your
+plain TeX file the command:
+ \input colordvi
+ For (the obsolete) LaTeX 2.09, add the `colordvi' style option as in:
+ \documentstyle[12pt,colordvi]{article}
+ For LaTeX 2e, these examples are not applicable. Instead, please see
+the documentation for the graphics package, available from
+`CTAN:doc/latex/graphics/'. See also `CTAN:doc/epslatex.ps'.
+
+ These macros provide two basic kinds of color macros: ones for local
+color changes (a few words, a single symbol) and one for global color
+changes (the whole document). All the color names use a mixed case
+scheme to avoid conflicts with other macros. There are 68 predefined
+colors, with names taken primarily from the Crayola crayon box of 64
+colors, and one pair of macros for the user to set his own color pattern
+(*note User-definable colors::). You can browse the file
+`colordvi.tex' for a list of the predefined colors. The comments in
+this file also show a rough correspondence between the crayon names and
+Pantones.
+
+ A local color command has the form
+
+ \COLORNAME{this is the color COLORNAME}
+
+where COLORNAME is the name of a predefined color, e.g., `Blue'. As
+shown, these macros take one argument, the text to print in the
+specified color. This can be used for nested color changes since it
+restores the original color state when it completes. For example:
+
+ This text is normal but here we are \Red{switching to red,
+ \Blue{nesting blue}, recovering the red} and back to original.
+
+The color nesting level has no hard limit, but it is not advisable to
+nest too deeply lest you and the reader lose track of the color history.
+
+ The global color command has the form
+
+ \textCOLORNAME
+
+These macros take no arguments and changes the default color from that
+point on to COLORNAME. This of course can be overridden globally by
+another such command or locally by local color commands. For example,
+expanding on the example above, we might have
+
+ \textGreen
+ This text is green but here we are \Red{switching to red,
+ \Blue{nesting blue}, recovering the red} and back to
+ original green.
+ \textCyan
+ The text from here on will be cyan until
+ \Yellow{locally changed to yellow}. Now we are back to cyan.
+
+ The color commands will even work in math mode and across math mode
+boundaries. This means that if you have a color before going into math
+mode, the mathematics will be set in that color as well. In alignment
+environments like `\halign', `tabular' or `eqnarray', local color
+commands cannot extend beyond the alignment characters.
+
+ Because local color commands respect only some environment and
+delimiter changes besides their own, care must be taken in setting
+their scope. It is best not to have them stretch too far.
+
+ At the present time there are no macros for color environments in
+LaTeX which might have a larger range. This is primarily to keep the
+TeX and LaTeX use compatible.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: User-definable colors, Next: Color subtleties, Prev: Color macro files, Up: Color
+
+7.2 User-definable colors
+=========================
+
+There are two ways for the user to specify colors not already defined.
+For local changes, there is the command `\Color' which takes two
+arguments. The first argument is four numbers between zero and one and
+specifies the intensity of cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK) in
+that order. The second argument is the text that should appear in the
+given color. For example, suppose you want the words "this color is
+pretty" to appear in a color which is 50% cyan, 85% magenta, 40% yellow
+and 20% black. You would use the command
+
+ \Color{.5 .85 .4 .2}{this color is pretty}
+
+ For global color changes, there is a command `\textColor' which
+takes one argument, the CMYK quadruple of relative color intensities.
+For example, if you want the default color to be as above, then the
+command
+
+ \textColor{.5 .85 .4 .2}
+ The text from now on will be this pretty color
+
+will do the trick.
+
+ Making a global color change in the midst of nested local colors is
+highly discouraged. Consequently, Dvips will give you warning message
+and do its best to recover by discarding the current color history.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Color subtleties, Next: Ted Turner, Prev: User-definable colors, Up: Color
+
+7.3 Color subtleties
+====================
+
+Color macros are defined via `\special' keywords. As such, they are
+put in the `.dvi' file only as explicit message strings to the driver.
+The (unpleasant) result is that certain unprotected regions of the text
+can have unwanted color side effects. For example, if a color region
+is split by TeX across a page boundary, then the footers of the current
+page (e.g., the page number) and the headers of the next page can
+inherit that color. To avoid this effect globally, users should make
+sure that these special regions of the text are defined with their own
+local color commands. For example, to protect the header and footer in
+plain TeX, use
+
+ \headline{\Black{My Header}}
+ \footline{\Black{\hss\tenrm\folio\hss}}
+
+ This warning also applies to figures and other insertions, so be
+careful!
+
+ Of course, in LaTeX, this is much more difficult to do because of the
+complexity of the macros that control these regions. This is
+unfortunate but inevitable, because TeX and LaTeX were not written with
+color in mind.
+
+ Even when writing your own macros, much care must be taken. The
+macros that `colorize' a portion of the text work prefix the text work
+by outputting one `\special' command to turn the color on before the
+text, and outputting another `\special' command afterwards to restore
+the original color. It is often useful to ensure that TeX is in
+horizontal mode before the first special command is issued; this can be
+done by prefixing the color command with `\leavevmode'.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Ted Turner, Next: Color device configuration, Prev: Color subtleties, Up: Color
+
+7.4 Printing in black/white after colorizing
+============================================
+
+If you have a TeX or LaTeX document written with color macros and you
+want to print it in black and white there are two options. On all
+(good) PostScript devices, printing a color file will print in
+corresponding gray levels. This is useful to get a rough idea of the
+colors without using expensive color printing devices. The second
+option is to replace the call to input `colordvi.tex' with
+`blackdvi.tex' (and similarly for the `.sty' files). So in the above
+example, replacing the word `colordvi' with `blackdvi' suffices.
+`blackdvi.tex' defines the color macros as no-ops, and so will produce
+normal black/white printing. By this simple mechanism, the user can
+switch to all black/white printing without having to ferret out the
+color commands. Also, some device drivers, particularly non-PostScript
+ones like screen previewers, will simply ignore the color commands and
+so print in black/white. Hopefully, in the future screen previewers
+for color displays will be compatible with some form of color support.
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Color device configuration, Next: Color support details, Prev: Ted Turner, Up: Color
+
+7.5 Color device configuration
+==============================
+
+To configure Dvips for a particular color device you need to fine tune
+the color parameters to match your device's color rendition. To do
+this, you will need a Pantone chart for your device. The header file
+`color.lpro' shows a (rough) correspondence between the Crayola crayon
+names and the Pantone numbers and also defines default CMYK values for
+each of the colors. Note that these colors must be defined in CMYK
+terms and not RGB, as Dvips outputs PostScript color commands in CMYK.
+This header file also defines (if they are not known to the
+interpreter) the PostScript commands `setcmykcolor' and
+`currentcmykcolor' in terms of a RGB equivalent so if your device only
+understands RGB, there should be no problem.
+
+ The parameters set in this file were determined by comparing the
+Pantone chart of a Tektronix Phaser printer with the actual Crayola
+Crayons. Because these were defined for a particular device, the
+actual color rendition on your device may be very different. There are
+two ways to adjust this. One is to use the PAntone chart for your
+device to rewrite `color.lpro' prior to compilation and installation.
+A better alternative, which supports multiple devices, is to add a
+header file option in the configuration file (*note Configuration file
+commands::) for each device that defines, in `userdict', the color
+parameters for those colors that need redefining.
+
+ For example, if you need to change the parameters defining
+`Goldenrod' (approximately Pantone 109 on the Phaser) for your device
+`mycolordev', do the following. In the Pantone chart for your device,
+find the CMYK values for Pantone 109. Let's say they are `{\ 0 0.10
+0.75 0.03 }'. Then create a header file named `mycolordev.pro' with the
+commands
+
+ userdict begin
+ /Goldenrod { 0 0.10 0.75 0.03 setcmykcolor} bind def
+
+Finally, in `config.mycolordev' add the line
+
+ h mycolordev.pro
+
+This will then define `Goldenrod' in your device's CMYK values in
+`userdict' which is checked before defining it in `TeXdict' by
+`color.pro'. (On MS-DOS, you will have to call this file
+`mycolordev.cfg'.)
+
+ This mechanism, together with additions to `colordvi.tex' and
+`blackdvi.tex' (and the `.sty' files), can also be used to predefine
+other colors for your users.

+
+7.6 Color support details
+=========================
+
+To support color, Dvips recognizes a certain set of specials. These
+specials start with the keyword `color' or the keyword `background',
+followed by a color specification.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Color specifications::
+* Color specials::
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Color specifications, Next: Color specials, Up: Color support details
+
+7.6.1 Color specifications
+--------------------------
+
+What is a color specification? One of three things. First, it might be
+a PostScript procedure as defined in a PostScript header file. The
+`color.pro' file defines 64 of these, including `Maroon'. This
+PostScript procedure must set the current color to be some value; in
+this case, `Maroon' is defined as `0 0.87 0.68 0.32 setcmykcolor'.
+
+ The second possibility is the name of a color model (initially, one
+of `rgb', `hsb', `cmyk', or `gray') followed by the appropriate number
+of parameters. When Dvips encounters such a macro, it sends out the
+parameters first, followed by the string created by prefixing
+`TeXcolor' to the color model. Thus, the color specification `rgb 0.3
+0.4 0.5' would generate the PostScript code `0.3 0.4 0.5 TeXrgbcolor'.
+Note that the case of zero arguments is disallowed, as that is handled
+by the single keyword case (`Maroon') above, where no changes to the
+name are made before it is sent to the PostScript file.
+
+ The third and final type of color specification is a double quote
+followed by any sequence of PostScript. The double quote is stripped
+from the output. For instance, the color specification `"AggiePattern
+setpattern' will set the `color' to the Aggie logo pattern (assuming
+such exists.)
+
+
+File: dvips.info, Node: Color specials, Prev: Color specifications, Up: Color support details
+
+7.6.2 Color specials
+--------------------
+
+We will describe `background' first, since it is the simplest. The
+`background' keyword must be followed by a color specification. That
+color specification is used as a fill color for the background. The
+last `background' special on a page is the one that gets issued, and it
+gets issued at the very beginning of the page, before any text or
+specials are sent. (This is possible because the prescan phase of
+Dvips notices all of the color specials so that the appropriate
+information can be written out during the second phase.)
+
+ The `color' special itself has three forms. The first is just
+`color' followed by a color specification. In this case, the current
+global color is set to that color; the color stack must be empty when
+such a command is executed.
+
+ The second form is `color push' followed by a color specification.
+This saves the current color on the color stack and sets the color to be
+that given by the color specification. This is the most common way to
+set a color.
+
+ The final version of the `color' special is just `color pop', with
+no color specification; this says to pop the color last pushed on the
+color stack from the color stack and set the current color to be that
+color.
+
+ Dvips correctly handles these color specials across pages, even when
+the pages are repeated or reversed.
+
+ These color specials can be used for things such as patterns or
+screens as well as simple colors. However, note that in the
+PostScript, only one color specification can be active at a time. For
+instance, at the beginning of a page, only the bottommost entry on the
+color stack is sent; also, when a color is popped, all that is done is
+that the color specification from the previous stack entry is sent. No
+`gsave' or `grestore' is used. This means that you cannot easily mix
+usage of the `color' specials for screens and colors, just one or the
+other. This may be addressed in the future by adding support for
+different categories of color-like state.
