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. - - Tom Rokicki wrote and maintains the original Dvips program. - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Installation, Next: Invoking Dvips, Prev: Why Dvips, Up: Top - -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.

(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.

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.

(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. - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Invoking Dvips, Next: Paper size and landscape, Prev: Installation, Up: Top - -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.

Such options are marked with a trailing `*'. - -`-' - Read additional options from standard input after processing the - command line. - -`--help' - Print a usage message and exit. - -`--version' - Print the version number and exit. - -`-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 - color separations or other neat tricks. - -`-B' - 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, - 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. This disables 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. - -`-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. - -`-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::). - - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Environment variables, Next: Config files, Prev: Command-line options, Up: Invoking Dvips - -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. - - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Config files, Prev: Environment variables, Up: Invoking Dvips - -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::. - -* Menu: - -* Configuration file searching:: Where config.* files are searched for. -* Configuration file commands:: What can go in a config.* file. - - -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. - - The given numbers must be sorted in increasing order; any number - smaller than the preceding one is ignored. This is because it is - better to scale a font up than down; scaling down can obliterate - small features in the character shape. - - The environment and config file values `DVIPSSIZES' or `TEXSIZES' - override this configuration file setting. - - If no `R' settings or environment variables are specified, a list - compiled in during installation is used.

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 have a -document where you want the first page printed on letterhead, and the -remaining pages on the usual paper.

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.

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'.

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'.

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.

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. - - For more information on the use of TeX to produce PDF files, see the -article "Creating quality Adobe PDF files from TeX with DVIPS" by -Kendall Whitehouse of Adobe.

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. - -* Menu: - -* Metric files:: Shape-independent font information. -* Glyph files:: Character shapes. -* Virtual fonts:: Constructing one font from others. -* Encodings:: Character codes and character names. -* PostScript typesetting:: How PostScript typesets a character. - - -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::. - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Glyph files, Next: Virtual fonts, Prev: Metric files, Up: Font concepts - -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.) - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Virtual fonts, Next: Encodings, Prev: Glyph files, Up: Font concepts - -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. - - -File: dvips.info, Node: PostScript typesetting, Prev: Encodings, Up: Font concepts - -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. - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Making a font available, Next: Invoking afm2tfm, Prev: Font concepts, Up: PostScript fonts - -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 ' 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 ; - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Special font effects, Next: Afm2tfm options, Prev: Changing font encodings, Up: Invoking afm2tfm - -6.3.2 Special font effects --------------------------- - -Besides the reencodings described in the previous section, Afm2tfm can -do other manipulations. (Again, it's best to use the prebuilt fonts -rather than attempting to remake them.) - - `-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 `'), 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 <, 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. - -* Menu: - -* Color macro files:: TeX macro definitions. -* User-definable colors:: Adding your own colors. -* Color subtleties:: Subtleties in using color. -* Ted Turner:: Printing in black/white after colorizing. -* Color device configuration:: Configuring Dvips for color devices. -* Color support details:: Color support details - - -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. - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Color support details, Prev: Color device configuration, Up: Color - -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. - - -File: dvips.info, Node: Index, Prev: Color, Up: Top - -Index -***** - -[index] -* Menu: - -* ! special (literal PS header): Literal headers.
