<h2 class="chapter" id="Why-use-Dvips_003f">1 Why use Dvips?</h2>
<p>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. See <a class="xref" href="#Installation">Installation</a>, for
details of compilation and installation.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>One of the most important features is the support of virtual fonts,
which add an entirely new level of flexibility to TeX. Dvips even
comes with its own Afm2tfm program that can create the virtual fonts
and TeX font metric files automatically from Adobe font metric
files.
</p>
<p>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.

<p>Installing Dvips is mostly the same as installing any Kpathsea-using
program. Therefore, for the basic steps involved,
see <a data-manual="kpathsea" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/kpathsea.html#Installation">Installation</a> in <cite class="cite">Kpathsea</cite>.
</p>
<p>For solutions to common installation problems and information on how to
report a bug, see the file <samp class="file">kpathsea/BUGS</samp> (see <a data-manual="kpathsea" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/kpathsea.html#Bugs">Bugs</a> in <cite class="cite">Kpathsea</cite>). For solutions to Dvips-specific problems,
see <a class="pxref" href="#Debug-options">Debug options</a>.
</p>
<p>Dvips does require some additional installation, detailed in the
sections below. Also, to configure color devices, see <a class="pxref" href="#Color-device-configuration">Color device configuration</a>.

<p>Dvips has its own configuration files: a file <samp class="file">config.ps</samp> for
sitewide defaults, and a file <samp class="file">config.<var class="var">printer</var></samp> for each
printer (output device). Since these are site-specific, <code class="code">make

</p>
<p>(These Dvips configuration files are independent of the Kpathsea

<samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp> (see <a class="pxref" href="#psfonts_002emap"><samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp>: PostScript font catalog</a>); this file must contain

<p>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.
</p>

</p>
<p>A good first debugging operation is to set the environment variable
<code class="env">DVIPSDEBUG</code>, which will display any configuration and map files
read by Dvips. This way you can be sure it’s finding the files and
settings you expect.

<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">-d</samp>’ 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,
specify 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 <code class="code">-1</code>.
</p>
<p>You can also set the environment variable <code class="env">KPATHSEA_DEBUG</code> instead
of using ‘<samp class="samp">-d</samp>’. Some of these debugging options are actually
provided by Kpathsea (see <a data-manual="kpathsea" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/kpathsea.html#Debugging">Debugging</a> in <cite class="cite">Kpathsea</cite>).

<p>If you are not getting any output at all, even from the simplest
one-character file (for instance, ‘<samp class="samp">\ \bye</samp>’), 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
‘<samp class="samp">ehandler.ps</samp>’.)

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Mitsubishi-Shinko-CHC_002dS446i-printer"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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 (see <a class="pxref" href="#Debug-options">Debug options</a>).
</p>
<p>It is possible your spooler is broken and is misinterpreting the
structured comments. Try the ‘<samp class="samp">-N</samp>’ flag to turn off structured
comments and see what happens.

<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">-F</samp>’ flag (or ‘<samp class="samp">F</samp>’ config file
option), but this generates files with a terminating binary character
(control-D). You can also try using the ‘<samp class="samp">-s</samp>’ flag (or ‘<samp class="samp">s</samp>’
config file option) to enclose the entire job in a save/restore pair.

<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">bop undefined</samp>’. 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 ‘<samp class="samp">-N</samp>’ option, but it’d be best to get your spooling
software updated.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-VM-exhausted"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-printer-memory-exhausted"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-memory-of-printer-exhausted"></a>
<p>Another error message is ‘<samp class="samp">VM exhausted</samp>’. 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
‘<samp class="samp">m</samp>’ parameter in the configuration file; use the debug option to
make sure you adjust the correct file.
</p>
<p>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 (see <a class="pxref" href="#Ghostscript-installation">Ghostscript installation</a>); it
might be a problem with the printer itself.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-failure_002c-to-include-graphics"></a>
<p>The most common problem with including graphics is an incorrect bounding
box (see <a class="pxref" href="#Bounding-box">The bounding box comment</a>). Complain to whoever wrote the software that
generated the file if the bounding box is indeed incorrect.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Illustrator_002c-workaround-for"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>One possible thing to try is the ‘<samp class="samp">-K</samp>’ 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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-binary-files_002c-not-supported"></a>
<p>Any application which generates graphics output containing raw binary
(not ASCII hex) will probably fail with Dvips.

<p>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.
</p>
<p>There many ways to control Dvips’ behavior: configuration files,
environment variables, and command-line options.

<h3 class="section" id="Basic-usage-of-Dvips">3.1 Basic usage of Dvips</h3>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-usage_002c-basic"></a>
<p>To use Dvips at its simplest, simply type
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">dvips foo
</pre></div>
<p>where <samp class="file">foo.dvi</samp> is the output of TeX that you want to print.
The default output is to a corresponding file <samp class="file">foo.ps</samp>; Dvips may
also have been locally configured to output directly to a printer by
default.
</p>
<p>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.
See <a data-manual="kpathsea" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/kpathsea.html#Unable-to-generate-fonts">Unable to generate fonts</a> in <cite class="cite">Kpathsea</cite>.)
</p>
<p>Many options are available (see the next section). For a brief summary
of available options, run

<p>Set both the horizontal and vertical resolution to <var class="var">num</var>, given in

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 ‘<samp class="samp">-Z</samp>’ flag should probably also be
used. If you are using fonts made with Metafont, such as Computer
Modern, <samp class="file">mktexpk</samp> needs to know about the value for <var class="var">num</var>
that you use or Metafont will fail. See the file

<p>Maximum drift in pixels of each character from its ‘true’

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

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.

<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">-i</samp>’ to get
each page as a separate EPSF file; otherwise, all the pages are overlaid
in the single output file.

<p>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
<code class="code">PRINTER</code> environment variable; use ‘<samp class="samp">-P$PRINTER</samp>’ after the
‘<samp class="samp">-f</samp>’ to read it anyway. It also turns off the automatic sending of
control-D if it was turned on with the ‘<samp class="samp">-F</samp>’ option or in the

<p>Make each section be a separate file; a <em class="dfn">section</em> 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 ‘<samp class="samp">-S</samp>’ option which sets
the maximum section length in pages; if ‘<samp class="samp">-i</samp>’ is specified and
‘<samp class="samp">-S</samp>’ 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.
</p>
<p>On the other hand, if your document uses very large fonts or very
large included figures, Dvips might take it upon itself to split the
output into unwanted sections, to try to avoid overflowing printer
memory. See <a class="xref" href="#Headers-and-memory-usage">Headers and memory usage</a>, for ways to handle this.

<p>The last page printed will be the first one numbered <var class="var">num</var>; the
default is the last page in the document.
</p>
<p>By default, <var class="var">num</var> is compared to TeX’s idea of the page number
(more precisely, the <code class="code">\count0</code> value written in the DVI file).
But if <var class="var">num</var> is prefixed by an equals sign, then it (and the
argument to the ‘<samp class="samp">-p</samp>’ option, if specified) is treated as a
physical (absolute) page number, Thus, using ‘<samp class="samp">-l =9</samp>’ will end the
output with the ninth page of the document, no matter what the pages
are actually numbered.
</p>
<p>On the other hand, if <var class="var">pageseq</var> is specified, the <var class="var">pageseq</var>th
occurrence of the given TeX page number is used. For example,
‘<samp class="samp">-l 99.2</samp>’ says to end with the second page numbered 99 in the
document. The ‘<samp class="samp">=</samp>’ and <var class="var">lastseq</var> features aren’t useful
together.

<p>When looking for matching paper sizes, permit rotation of page content
on the page to match the given size; the default, as of Dvips 2022.1,
is not to do this. It should not be needed in modern systems with
normal print spoolers, and can be harmful when converting to PDF
(see <a class="pxref" href="#Config-file-paper-sizes">Configuration file paper size command</a>). This option accepts an optional
suffix of 0 (to explicitly disable) or 1 (to explicitly enable); if
the option is specified without a suffix, it enables the behavior.

<h4 class="subsection" id="Configuration-file-searching-1">3.4.1 Configuration file searching</h4>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-configuration-file-searching"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-searching-config-files_002c-order-of"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<ol class="enumerate">
<li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-config_002eps_002c-searched-for"></a>
Dvips first reads (if it exists) <samp class="file">config.ps</samp>; it is searched for
along the path for Dvips configuration files, as described in
<a data-manual="kpathsea" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/kpathsea.html#Supported-file-formats">Supported file formats</a> in <cite class="cite">Kpathsea</cite>.
</li><li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002edvipsrc_002c-searched-for"></a>
A user-specific startup file is loaded, so individual users can override
any options set in the global file. The environment variable
<code class="code">DVIPSRC</code>, 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 <samp class="file">$HOME/.dvipsrc</samp>, which is in the user’s home directory.
On MS-DOS and MS-Windows, where users generally don’t have their private
directories, the startup file is called <samp class="file">dvips.ini</samp> and it is
searched for along the path for Dvips configuration files (as described
in <a data-manual="kpathsea" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/kpathsea.html#Supported-file-formats">Supported file formats</a> in <cite class="cite">Kpathsea</cite>.); users are
expected to set this path as they see fit for their taste.
</li><li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002dPprinter_002c-and-config-file-searching"></a>
The command line is read and parsed: if the ‘<samp class="samp">-P<var class="var">device</var></samp>’ option
is encountered, at that point <samp class="file">config.<var class="var">device</var></samp> is loaded.
Thus, the printer configuration file can override anything in the
site-wide or user configuration file, and it can also override options
in the command line up to the point that the ‘<samp class="samp">-P</samp>’ option was
encountered. (On MS-DOS, the printer configuration files are called
<samp class="file"><var class="var">device</var>.cfg</samp>, since DOS doesn’t allow more than 3 characters
after the dot in filenames.)
</li><li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-PRINTER_002c-and-config-file-searching"></a>
If no ‘<samp class="samp">-P</samp>’ option was specified, and also the ‘<samp class="samp">-o</samp>’ and
‘<samp class="samp">-f</samp>’ command line options were not used, Dvips checks the
environment variable <code class="code">PRINTER</code>. If it exists, then
<samp class="file">config.<var class="var">$PRINTER</var></samp> (<samp class="file"><var class="var">$PRINTER</var>.cfg</samp> on MS-DOS) is
loaded (if it exists).
</li></ol>
<p>Because the <samp class="file">.dvipsrc</samp> file is read before the printer-specific
configuration files, individual users cannot override settings in the
latter. On the other hand, the <code class="code">TEXCONFIG</code> path can be set to
anything, so the users can always define their own printer-specific
configuration files to be found before the system’s.
</p>
<p>A few command-line options are treated specially, in that they are not
overridden by configuration files:
</p>
<dl class="table">
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">-D</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>As well as setting the resolution, this unsets the mode, if the mode was
previously set from a configuration file. If <samp class="file">config.$PRINTER</samp> is
read, however, any ‘<samp class="samp">D</samp>’ or ‘<samp class="samp">M</samp>’ lines from there will take
effect.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">-mode</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>This overrides any mode setting (‘<samp class="samp">M</samp>’ line) in configuration files.
‘<samp class="samp">-mode</samp>’ does not affect the resolution.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">-o</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>This overrides any output setting (‘<samp class="samp">o</samp>’ line) in configuration files.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>The purpose of these special cases is to (1) minimize the chance of
having a mismatched mode and resolution (which ‘<samp class="samp">mktexpk</samp>’ cannot
resolve), and (2) let command-line options override config files where
possible.

overridden by <samp class="file">config.ps</samp> or other configuration files. 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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">%! Hey, we're PostScript
/Times-Roman findfont 30 scalefont setfont 144 432 moveto
vmstatus exch sub 40 string cvs show pop showpage
</pre></div>
<p>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, say, 10 million is
likely fine.
</p>
<p>To go all out: If <var class="var">num</var> is zero or negative, Dvips sets the
available memory to a very large number (the maximum integer value in
C), the idea being that output is not to a printer and thus no
splitting of the output is desirable. The Dvips config file
<samp class="file">config.maxmem</samp> is provided to do this conveniently, namely with
‘<samp class="samp">dvips -Pmaxmem</samp>’.

<h2 class="chapter" id="Paper-size-and-landscape-orientation">4 Paper size and landscape orientation</h2>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-paper-size_002c-general"></a>
<p>Most TeX documents at a particular site are designed to use the
local standard paper size (letter size in the United States, A4
elsewhere). The Dvips program can be customized either sitewide or
for a particular printer.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-landscape-orientation_002c-defined"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-portrait-orientation_002c-defined"></a>
<p>On the other hand, plenty of 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 <em class="dfn">landscape</em>
orientation (the default orientation is called <em class="dfn">portrait</em>).
Alternatively, a document might be designed for ledger or A3 paper.
</p>
<p>Since the intended paper size in these cases 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 ‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ special. It is hoped that this
special will become standard over time for TeX previewers and other
printer drivers.
</p>
<p>Some LaTeX packages, e.g., ‘<samp class="samp">hyperref.sty</samp>’, write a
‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ special into the DVI file. In this case, you need
not and should not attempt to override it manually.

</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{papersize=<var class="var">width</var>,<var class="var">height</var>}
</pre></div>
<p><var class="var">width</var> is the horizontal size of the page, and <var class="var">height</var> 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).
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-landscape_002c-as-_005cspecial"></a>
<p>For a US letter size landscape document, the ‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ would be:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{papersize=11in,8.5in}
</pre></div>
<p>An alternate specification of <code class="code">landscape</code>:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{landscape}
</pre></div>
<p>This is supported for backward compatibility, but it is hoped that
eventually the ‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ comment will dominate.
</p>
<p>Of course, such a <code class="code">\special</code> only informs Dvips of the desired
paper size; you must also adjust <code class="code">\hsize</code> and <code class="code">\vsize</code> in your
TeX document typeset to those dimensions.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-unknown_002c-paper-format-for-_002dt"></a>
<p>When using the ‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ special, you generally should not also
specify <code class="code">-t</code> on the command line (see <a class="pxref" href="#Option-details">Option details</a>). The
exception is when using a nonstandard paper size that isn’t
predefined; in this case, use <code class="code">-t unknown</code>.
</p>
<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ special must occur somewhere on the first page of
the document. Some packages, notably ‘<samp class="samp">hyperref</samp>’, insert this special.
</p>
<p>By default, if a DVI file contains multiple ‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ specials,
the last one wins; this is also the behavior of the <code class="code">dvipdfmx</code>
driver. If the <code class="code">-L0</code> command line option or <code class="code">L0</code> config
file command is specified, the first special wins—this was the
behavior of Dvips prior to the 2017 release.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-paper-size-configuration-file-command"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-configuration-file-paper-size-command"></a>
<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">@</samp>’ command in a configuration file sets the paper size
defaults and options. The first ‘<samp class="samp">@</samp>’ command defines the default
paper size. It has three possible parameters:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">@ <span class="r">[</span><var class="var">name</var> <span class="r">[</span><var class="var">hsize</var> <var class="var">vsize</var><span class="r">]]</span>
</pre></div>
<p>If ‘<samp class="samp">@</samp>’ 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).
</p>
<p>If three parameters are given, with the first parameter being a name and
the second and third being a dimension (as in ‘<samp class="samp">8.5in</samp>’ or
‘<samp class="samp">3.2cc</samp>’, just like in the ‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ special), then the
option is interpreted as starting a new paper size description, where
<var class="var">name</var> is the name and <var class="var">hsize</var> and <var class="var">vsize</var> define the
horizontal and vertical size of the sheet of paper, respectively. For
example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">@ letterSize 8.5in 11in
</pre></div>
<p>If both <var class="var">hsize</var> and <var class="var">vsize</var> are zero (you must still specify
units!) then any page size will match. If the ‘<samp class="samp">@</samp>’ character is
immediately followed by a ‘<samp class="samp">+</samp>’ 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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">@ letter 8.5in 11in
@+ %%BeginPaperSize: Letter
@+ letter
@+ %%EndPaperSize
</pre></div>
<p>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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">@ legal 8.5in 14in
@+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: Legal
@+ %%BeginPaperSize: Legal
@+ legal
@+ %%EndPaperSize
</pre></div>
<p>When Dvips has a paper format name given on the command line, it looks
for a match by the <var class="var">name</var>; when it has a ‘<samp class="samp">papersize</samp>’ special,
it looks for a match by dimensions. The best match found (from the
paper size information in the configuration file) is used. The
dimensions must match within 5bp.
</p>
<p>If nothing matches, a warning is printed and the first paper size with
zero dimensions is used; this should be the <code class="code">unknown</code> paper size
definition mentioned below, resulting in the actual dimensions being
used.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-landscaperotate-configuration-file-command"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-landscaperotate-command-line-option"></a>
<p>In versions of Dvips prior to 2022.1, if the paper size specified did
not match one of the defined paper sizes, Dvips considered rotated
page content and rotated paper sizes for a match. This provided some
automatic support for landscape mode on raw printers, but today it can
be harmful when generating PDF. (Specifically, the ‘<samp class="samp">/MediaBox</samp>’
then ends up with rotated values, which is not expected by PDF
viewers, e.g., when a document intentionally has a single page
rotated.)
</p>
<p>Further, on all recent computer systems, this facility is typically
provided instead by a print spooler that considers the bounding box of
the document and inserts appropriate media selection commands as part
of the print job. So, this automatic rotation is no longer done by
default by Dvips. If you want to enable it, the
‘<samp class="samp">-landscaperotate</samp>’ command line option or ‘<samp class="samp">landscaperotate</samp>’
configuration file option can be used. See <a class="xref" href="#Option-details">Option details</a>.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-zero-dimensions-and-setting-paper-size"></a>
<p>If your printer has a command to set a special paper size, then give
dimensions of ‘<samp class="samp">0in 0in</samp>’; the PostScript code that sets the paper
size can refer to the dimensions the user requested as ‘<samp class="samp">hsize</samp>’
and ‘<samp class="samp">vsize</samp>’; these will be macros defined in the PostScript that
return the requested size in default PostScript units. Also, some
printers want ‘<samp class="samp">BeginPaperSize</samp>’ comments and paper size setting
commands; others (such as the NeXT) want ‘<samp class="samp">PaperSize</samp>’ comments and
they will handle setting the paper size. So paper size entries should

<p>When using a paper size that is not already defined in
<samp class="file">config.ps</samp>, you probably want to say ‘<samp class="samp">-t unknown</samp>’ on
the command line; the <code class="code">unknown</code> paper size definition in
<samp class="file">config.ps</samp> has the requisite PostScript incantation to set the
PostScript page size, as just described.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-nopaper_002c-paper-format-for-_002dt"></a>
<p>If you want no paper size information in the output at all, use
‘<samp class="samp">-t nopaper</samp>’. This is useful with multi-page output that
will be processed further. If you just have a single page document,
you can use ‘<samp class="samp">-E</samp>’ to get pure EPSF output.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-mkdvipspapers"></a>
<p>The Perl 5 script <samp class="file">contrib/configs/mkdvipspapers</samp> in the

<p>Notwithstanding the above, the default <code class="code">letter</code> and <code class="code">a4</code>
paper size definitions in <samp class="file">config.ps</samp> execute the
<code class="code">setpagedevice</code> operator if it exists (it was defined in
PostScript Level 2), or the ‘<samp class="samp">letter</samp>’ or ‘<samp class="samp">a4</samp>’ operator
if they exist (they are nonstandard and thus perhaps cause failures on
certain (unknown) printers). Not executing any page size definition
at all confuses PostScript conversion programs such as
<code class="command">ps2pdf</code>, so we want to execute one if we can.

<p>Some printers, such as the Hewlett-Packard HP4si, have multiple paper
trays. You can set up Dvips to take advantage of this using the
<code class="code">bop-hook</code> PostScript variable (see <a class="pxref" href="#PostScript-hooks">PostScript hooks</a>).
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-letterhead-tray"></a>
<p>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
<samp class="file">firstletterhead.PS</samp>, with the following (PostScript) code
(<code class="code">bop-hook</code> is passed the current physical page number, which
starts at zero):
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">/bop-hook { dup 0 eq { <var class="var">alternatetray</var> } { <var class="var">normaltray</var> } ifelse } def
</pre></div>
<p>where <var class="var">alternatetray</var> and <var class="var">normaltray</var> are the appropriate
commands to select the paper trays. On the 4SI, <var class="var">alternatetray</var> is
‘<samp class="samp">statusdict begin 1 setpapertray end</samp>’ and <var class="var">normaltray</var> is
‘<samp class="samp">statusdict begin 0 setpapertray end</samp>’.
</p>
<p>Then, include the file with either

<h4 class="subsection" id="The-bounding-box-comment">5.1.1 The bounding box comment</h4>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-bounding-box_002c-comment-for"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-big-points"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-PostScript-units"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-bounding-box_002c-defined"></a>
<p>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
<em class="dfn">bounding box</em>. 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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_0025_0025BoundingBox"></a>
<p>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
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">%%BoundingBox: 25 50 400 300
</pre></div>
<p>(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
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-atend_002c-bounding-box-specification"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_0028atend_0029_002c-bounding-box-specification"></a>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">%%BoundingBox: (atend)
</pre></div>
<p>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.)
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-bbfig"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-bounding-box_002c-determining"></a>
<p>If the document lacks a ‘<samp class="samp">%%BoundingBox:</samp>’ altogether, you can
determine one in a couple of ways. One is to use the ‘<samp class="samp">bbfig</samp>’
program distributed with Dvips in the <samp class="file">contrib</samp> directory. This can
usually find the correct bounding box automatically; it works best with
Ghostscript.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-612-792-bounding-box-size"></a>
<p>If the comment looks like this:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">%%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
</pre></div>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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 <var class="var">llx</var>, the first number. From the
bottom edge of the paper to the bottommost mark on the paper is
<var class="var">lly</var>, the second number. From the left edge of the paper to the
rightmost mark on the paper is <var class="var">urx</var>, the third number. The fourth
and final number, <var class="var">ury</var>, is the distance from the bottom of the page
to the uppermost mark on the paper.
</p>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">%!</samp>’; if it is not, the file
probably isn’t PostScript.)
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">%%BoundingBox: <var class="var">llx</var> <var class="var">lly</var> <var class="var">urx</var> <var class="var">ury</var>
</pre></div>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_005cincludegraphics-LaTeX-macro"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-macros-for-epsf-inclusion"></a>
<p>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 LaTeX2e, 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 <samp class="file">grfguide</samp> or <samp class="file">epslatex</samp>, 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).
</p>
<p>Just put the following command into your preamble:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}
</pre></div>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">[dvips]</samp>’ parameter.
</p>
<p>Now, at the point you want to include a file <samp class="file">foo.eps</samp>, enter a
line such as:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\includegraphics{foo.eps}
</pre></div>
<p>However, it is usually best to omit the file extension and only use
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\includegraphics{foo}
</pre></div>
<p>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., <samp class="file">foo.pdf</samp> or
<samp class="file">foo.png</samp>.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-bounding-box_002c-supplying-to-TeX"></a>
<p>The \includegraphics command has many options, specified in
‘<samp class="samp">key=value</samp>’ syntax, to allow you to resize, rotate or trim the
included graphic—see <samp class="file">grfguide</samp> or <samp class="file">epslatex</samp>. 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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\includegraphics[bb=100 100 500 500]{foo.ps}
</pre></div>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">\includegraphics</samp>’ with ‘<samp class="samp">\parbox</samp>’ commands or
minipages can sometimes be confusing when this is not taken into
account.

</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\documentstyle[12pt,epsf]{article}
</pre></div>
<p>In any case, the above only needs to be done once, no matter how many

<p>Now, at the point you want to include a file, enter a line such as:

<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\epsffile{foo.eps}

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_005cleavevmode"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-bounding-box_002c-supplying-to-TeX-1"></a>
<p>If you are using LaTeX, you may need to add <code class="code">\leavevmode</code>
immediately before the <code class="code">\epsffile</code> 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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\epsffile[100 100 500 500]{foo.ps}

<p>The <code class="code">\epsffile</code> macro typesets the figure as a TeX <code class="code">\vbox</code>
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.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-scaling-of-figures"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-figures_002c-scaling"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>The best way to do this is to assign the desired size to the TeX
<code class="code">\epsfxsize</code> or <code class="code">\epsfysize</code> variables, whichever is more
convenient for you. That is, put
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_005cepsfxsize"></a>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\epsfxsize=<var class="var">dimen</var>
</pre></div>
<p>right before the call to <code class="code">\epsffile</code>. Then the width of the TeX
box will be <var class="var">dimen</var> and its height will be scaled proportionately.
Similarly, you can set the vertical size with
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_005cepsfysize"></a>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\epsfysize=<var class="var">dimen</var>
</pre></div>
<p>in which case the height will be set and the width scaled
proportionally.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_005cepsfsize"></a>
<p>You can resize graphics in a more general way by redefining the
<code class="code">\epsfsize</code> macro. <code class="code">\epsffile</code> calls this with two
parameters: the natural horizontal and vertical sizes of the PostScript
graphic. <code class="code">\epsfsize</code> must expand to the desired horizontal size,
that is, the width of the <code class="code">\vbox</code>. Schematically:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\def\epsfsize#1#2{<var class="var">body</var>}
</pre></div>
<p>Some useful definitions of <var class="var">body</var>:
</p>
<dl class="table">
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">\epsfxsize</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>This definition (the default) enables the default features listed above,
by setting <code class="code">\epsfxsize</code> to the same value it had before the macro
was called.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">#1</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>Force the natural size by returning the first parameter (the original
width).
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">0pt</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>A special case, equivalent to ‘<samp class="samp">#1</samp>’.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">0.5#1</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>Scale to half the natural size.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">\hsize</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>Scale to the current <code class="code">\hsize</code>. (In LaTeX, use <code class="code">\textwidth</code>
instead of <code class="code">\hsize</code>.)
</p>
</dd>
<dt>‘<samp class="samp">\ifnum#1>\hsize\hsize\else#1\fi</samp>’</dt>
<dd><p>If the natural width is greater than the current <code class="code">\hsize</code>, scale to

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_005cmagnification"></a>
<p>For compatibility with other PostScript drivers, it is possible to turn

<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{! /magscale false def}
</pre></div>
<p>Use of this command is not recommended because it will make the
<code class="code">\epsffile</code> 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.

<p>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

possibly losing aspect ratio. If only one of <code class="code">rwi</code> and
<code class="code">rhi</code> is nonzero, the picture is scaled, preserving aspect ratio.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>The offsets and sizes are given in PostScript units (big points).
Thus, for example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{psfile=foo.ps hoffset=72 hscale=90 vscale=90}
</pre></div>
<p>will shift the graphics produced by file <samp class="file">foo.ps</samp> 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.
</p>
<p>For compatibility with older PostScript drivers, it is possible to change
the units that ‘<samp class="samp">hscale</samp>’ and ‘<samp class="samp">vscale</samp>’ are given in. This can be
done by redefining ‘<samp class="samp">@scaleunit</samp>’
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-scaleunit"></a>
in ‘<samp class="samp">SDict</samp>’
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-SDict"></a>
by a TeX command such as
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{! /@scaleunit 1 def}
</pre></div>
<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">@scaleunit</samp>’ variable, which is by default 100, is what
‘<samp class="samp">hscale</samp>’ and ‘<samp class="samp">vscale</samp>’ are divided by to yield an absolute
scale factor.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-uncompressing-PostScript"></a>
<p>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 <samp class="file">.Z</samp> or <samp class="file">.gz</samp>, Dvips
automatically runs ‘<samp class="samp">gzip -d</samp>’. For example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\epsffile[72 72 540 720]{foo.ps.gz}
</pre></div>
<p>Since the results of such a command are not accessible to TeX, if you
use this facility with the <samp class="file">epsf</samp> macros, you need to supply the
bounding box parameter yourself, as shown.
</p>
<p>More generally, if the filename parameter to one of the graphics
inclusion techniques starts with a left quote (‘<samp class="samp">`</samp>’), the parameter
is instead interpreted as a command to execute that will send the actual
file to standard output. For example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{psfile="`gnuplot foo"}
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-gnuplot"></a>
<p>to include the file <samp class="file">foo</samp>. Of course, the command to be executed
can be anything, including using a file conversion utility such as
<samp class="file">tek2ps</samp> or whatever is appropriate. This feature can be disabled
with the ‘<samp class="samp">-R</samp>’ command-line option or ‘<samp class="samp">R</samp>’ configuration option.

<var class="var">tfmname</var> on more than one ‘<samp class="samp">%*Font</samp>’ line; this is useful when
the number of characters from the font used needs a longer
<var class="var">hex-bitstring</var> (see item below) than conveniently fits on one line.
</p>

</p>
</dd>
<dt><var class="var">designbp</var></dt>
<dd><p>The designsize of the font, again in PostScript points. This should
match the value in the TFM file <var class="var">tfmname</var>. Thus, for <samp class="file">cmr10</samp>,
it should be ‘<samp class="samp">9.96265</samp>’.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><var class="var">hex-start</var></dt>

</dd>
<dt><var class="var">hex-bitstring</var></dt>
<dd><p>An arbitrary number of ASCII hexadecimal digits specifying which
characters following (and including) <var class="var">hex-start</var> are used. This is
treated as a bitmap. For example, if your figure used the single letter
‘<samp class="samp">K</samp>’, you would use ‘<samp class="samp">4b:8</samp>’ for <var class="var">hex-start</var> and

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-headers_002c-including-in-TeX"></a>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">header</samp>’ <code class="code">\special</code>. For instance,
to ensure that <samp class="file">foo.ps</samp> gets downloaded:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{header=foo.ps}
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-fonts_002c-as-header-files"></a>
<p>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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{header=putr.pfa}
</pre></div>
<p>to include the font definition file for Adobe Utopia Roman.
</p>
<p>The <code class="code">header</code> also special allows for specifying some additional
code that should be inserted into the PostScript document before and after
the file itself, as follows:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{header={foo.ps} pre={pre code} post={post code}}
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-before-header_002c-inserting-code"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-after-header_002c-inserting-code"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-pre-code-before-headers"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-post-code-after-headers"></a>
<p>This will insert <code class="code">pre code</code> just before <samp class="file">foo.ps</samp> and
<code class="code">post code</code> just after. It is required to use the (balanced)
braces in <em class="emph">all</em> of the arguments, including the <code class="code">header</code>,
when using this extended syntax.
</p>
<p>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
<samp class="file">graphics/graphicx-psmin</samp> package.
</p>
<p>This extended syntax has one additional feature. When Dvips finds the
extended syntax, it will also look in the installed <samp class="file">tex/</samp>
tree(s) for the header file (<samp class="file">foo.ps</samp> 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 <samp class="file">tex/</samp> tree.

option ‘<samp class="samp">-P <var class="var">header</var></samp>’; this will read the file
<samp class="file">config.<var class="var">header</var></samp>, which in turn can specify a header file to
be downloaded with the ‘<samp class="samp">h</samp>’ option. See <a class="xref" href="#Configuration-file-commands">Configuration file commands</a>. These files are called <samp class="file"><var class="var">header</var>.cfg</samp> on MS-DOS.

code with a space, leaving only the ‘<samp class="samp">h</samp>’ line and any comments
starting in the first column. As an example, see
<samp class="file">contrib/volker/config.*</samp> (<samp class="file">contrib/volker/*.cfg</samp> on MS-DOS).
(These files also perform useful functions: controlling duplex/simplex
mode on duplex printers, and setting various screen frequencies;

<p>Dvips tries to avoid overflowing the printer’s memory by splitting the
output files into “sections” (see the ‘<samp class="samp">-i</samp>’ option in <a class="ref" href="#Option-details">Option details</a>). 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
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-VMusage"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_0025_0025VMusage"></a>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">%%VMusage: <var class="var">min</var> <var class="var">max</var>
</pre></div>
<p>then <var class="var">max</var> is used. If there is no <code class="code">%%VMusage</code> line, then
the size (in bytes) of the header file is used as an approximation.
If you want a file to be ignored in the sectioning calculations, use
‘<samp class="samp">%%VMusage: 0 0</samp>’.
</p>
<p>Illustrations (figure files) are also checked for <code class="code">%%VMusage</code> line.
</p>
<p>Therefore, if your document uses very large fonts or very large
included figures, Dvips might take it upon itself to split the output
into unwanted sections. If this causes problems, the simplest
solution is to use ‘<samp class="samp">dvips -Pmaxmem</samp>’, which reads the Dvips file
<samp class="file">config.maxmem</samp>, which sets Dvips’s idea of the memory available
to a very large number. (See the ‘<samp class="samp">m</samp>’ item in <a class="ref" href="#Configuration-file-commands">Configuration file commands</a>.)

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_0022-special-_0028literal-PostScript_0029"></a>
<p>For simple graphics, or just for experimentation, literal PostScript
code can be included. Simply use a <code class="code">\special</code> beginning with a
double quote character ‘<samp class="samp">"</samp>’; there is no matching closing ‘<samp class="samp">"</samp>’.
</p>
<p>For instance, the following (simple) graphic:
</p>
<p>was created by typing:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\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}}

<p>You are responsible for leaving space for such literal graphics, as with
the <code class="code">\vbox</code> above.

<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">ps</samp>’ 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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{ps:<var class="var">text</var>}
\special{ps::<var class="var">text</var>}
\special{ps::[begin]<var class="var">text</var>}
\special{ps::[end]<var class="var">text</var>}
\special{ps::[nobreak]<var class="var">text</var>}
</pre></div>
<p>(with longer forms taking precedence over shorter forms, when they are
present). ‘<samp class="samp">ps::</samp>’ and ‘<samp class="samp">ps::[end]</samp>’ do no positioning, so they
can be used to continue PostScript literals started with ‘<samp class="samp">ps:</samp>’ or
‘<samp class="samp">ps::[begin]</samp>’.
</p>
<p>Literal PostScript instructions after ‘<samp class="samp">ps::[nobreak]</samp>’ are
<em class="emph">not</em> broken into lines. This feature may be used to include
PostScript comments, for example.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-plotfile_002c-ps-subspecial"></a>
<p>In addition, the variant
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\special{ps: plotfile <var class="var">filename</var>}
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-rotate_002etex"></a>
<p>inserts the contents of <var class="var">filename</var> 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 <samp class="file">rotate.tex</samp>, which makes
it easy to typeset text turned in multiples of 90 degrees.

<p>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 <code class="code">\special</code> beginning with an ‘<samp class="samp">!</samp>’ is copied into
the output file. A dictionary <code class="code">SDict</code> will be current when this
code is executed; Dvips arranges for <code class="code">SDict</code> to be first on the
dictionary stack when any PostScript graphic is included, whether
literally (the ‘<samp class="samp">"</samp>’ special) or through macros (e.g.,
<samp class="file">epsf.tex</samp>).

<p>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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-bop_002dhook-2"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-eop_002dhook"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-start_002dhook"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-end_002dhook"></a>
<p>If any of the PostScript names <code class="code">bop-hook</code>, <code class="code">eop-hook</code>,
<code class="code">start-hook</code>, or <code class="code">end-hook</code> are defined in <code class="code">userdict</code>,
they will be executed at the beginning of a page, end of a page, start
of the document, and end of a document, respectively.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-draft-copies"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-dated-output"></a>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">-h</samp>’ option or the ‘<samp class="samp">header=</samp>’ 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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-physical-page-number_002c-and-bop_002dhook"></a>
<p>The single argument to <code class="code">bop-hook</code> is the physical page number; the
first page gets zero, the second one, etc. <code class="code">bop-hook</code> must leave
this number on the stack. None of the other hooks are passed arguments.
</p>
<p>As an example of what can be done, the following special will write
a light grey ‘DRAFT’ across each page in the document:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\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}
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_0025_0025Page_002c-and-multi_002dpage-information"></a>
<p>Using <code class="code">bop-hook</code> or <code class="code">eop-hook</code> 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 ‘<samp class="samp">-N</samp>’
option to turn off structured comments (such as ‘<samp class="samp">%%Page</samp>’).
Otherwise, programs that read your file will assume its pages are
independent.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-save_002frestore_002c-and-literal-PS"></a>
<p>Some caveats are in order, however. Make sure that each <code class="code">gsave</code> is
matched with a <code class="code">grestore</code> on the same page. Do not use <code class="code">save</code>
and <code class="code">restore</code>; 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 <code class="code">\rotninety</code> macro especially
has a useful trick that appears again and again.

<p>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.
</p>
<p>To get the TeX fonts embedded in the PostScript file as Type 1 fonts,
add ‘<samp class="samp">-Ppdf</samp>’ to the dvips command line switches. The printout
for a run should look something like this:
</p>

<p>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
<code class="code">%%BeginFont: CMR10</code> followed by an entry <code class="code">/FontType 1 def</code>.
</p>
<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">-Ppdf</samp>’ option requires that the relevant outline
(<samp class="file">.pfa</samp> or <samp class="file">.pfb</samp>) files be installed (see <a class="pxref" href="#Font-concepts">Font concepts</a>). For example, the <samp class="file">cmr10</samp> file might be in
<samp class="file">/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cm/cmr10.pfb</samp>. Your TeX
distribution may make those fonts available in a separate optional
package (e.g., <code class="code">tetex-extra</code> in Debian). Failing that,
commercial versions of the Computer Modern fonts are available from
Blue Sky; public domain versions, in particular, the lm
and cm-super font families, are available from CTAN and in TeX
distributions.
</p>
<p>You can convert a PostScript file to PDF using <code class="code">distill</code>, which
comes with Adobe Acrobat, or <code class="code">ps2pdf</code>, which comes with
Ghostscript. The <code class="code">ps2pdf</code> that comes with <code class="code">Ghostscript</code>
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 ‘<samp class="samp">File|Document Info|Fonts</samp>’.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-trailing-spaces_002c-dropped"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-spaces_002c-dropped-trailing"></a>
<p>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 <code class="code">Symbol</code> font), and so these characters are
dropped. This bug is fixed in version 2.1.
</p>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp"> )</samp>’ with ‘<samp class="samp">\200)</samp>’ (with <code class="code">sed</code>, 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.

<p>This will resolve an ‘<samp class="samp">href="#paradise"</samp>’. You’ll also have to
change the catcode of ‘<samp class="samp">#</samp>’, etc. It’s usually easiest to use
existing macro packages which take care of all the details, such as

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-PostScript-fonts"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>All the necessary support for the standard 35 PostScript fonts
(‘<samp class="samp">AvantGarde-Book</samp>’ through ‘<samp class="samp">ZapfDingbats</samp>’), 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 (see <a class="pxref" href="#Installation">Installation</a>). This chapter is
therefore relevant only if you are installing new PostScript fonts not
supplied with Dvips. (Or if you’re curious.)

<p>The information needed to typeset using a particular font is contained
in two files: a <em class="dfn">metric file</em> that contains shape-independent
information and a <em class="dfn">glyph file</em> that contains the actual shapes of
the font’s characters. A <em class="dfn">virtual font</em> 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.
</p>
<p>An <em class="dfn">encoding file</em> 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.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-metric-files"></a>
<p>A <em class="dfn">metric file</em> 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.
</p>
<p>The per-character information specifies the width, height, depth, and
italic correction of each character in the font. Any might be zero.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-kerning_002c-defined"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-ligature_002c-defined"></a>
<p>In addition to information on individual characters, the metric file
specifies <em class="dfn">kerning</em>, i.e., adding or removing space between
particular character pairs. It further specifies <em class="dfn">ligature</em>
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 ‘<samp class="samp">fi</samp>’ to be typeset as ‘fi’, not as
‘<span class="r">f</span><span class="r">i</span>’ (with the dot of the ‘i’ colliding with ‘f’). (In English,
the only common ligatures are fi, fl, ff, ffi, and ffl.)
</p>
<p>Different typesetting systems use different metric file formats:
</p>
<ul class="itemize mark-bullet">
<li><a class="index-entry-id" id="index-afm-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002eafm-Adobe-metric-files"></a>
Each PostScript font has an <em class="dfn">Adobe font metrics</em> (‘<samp class="samp">.afm</samp>’)
file. These files are plain text, so you can inspect them easily. You
can get AFM files for Adobe’s fonts from
<a class="url" href="ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/Fonts/AFMs">ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/Fonts/AFMs</a>.
</li><li><a class="index-entry-id" id="index-tfm-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002etfm-TeX-font-metric-files"></a>
TeX uses <em class="dfn">TeX font metrics</em> (‘<samp class="samp">.tfm</samp>’) files. When you say
‘<samp class="samp">\font = <var class="var">font</var></samp>’ in your TeX document, TeX reads a file
named ‘<samp class="samp"><var class="var">font</var>.tfm</samp>’. (Well, except for the <samp class="file">texfonts.map</samp>
feature; see <a data-manual="kpathsea" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/kpathsea.html#Fontmap">Fontmap</a> in <cite class="cite">Kpathsea</cite>). 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.
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-property-list-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-tftopl"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-pltotf"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002epl-property-list-files"></a>
<p>TFM files are binary (and hence are typically much smaller than AFM
files). You can use the <code class="code">tftopl</code> program (see <a data-manual="web2c" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/web2c.html#tftopl-invocation">tftopl
invocation</a> in <cite class="cite">Web2c</cite>) that comes with TeX to transform a TFM
file into a human-readable “property list” (‘<samp class="samp">.pl</samp>’) file. You can
also edit a PL file and transform it back to a TeX-readable TFM with
the companion program <code class="code">pltotf</code> (see <a data-manual="web2c" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/web2c.html#pltotf-invocation">pltotf invocation</a> in <cite class="cite">Web2c</cite>). Editing metrics by hand is not something you’re likely to want
to do often, but the capability is there.

</li><li><a class="index-entry-id" id="index-pfm-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002epfm-printer-font-metric-files"></a>
ATM and other typesetting systems use <em class="dfn">printer font metric</em>
(‘<samp class="samp">.pfm</samp>’) files. These are binary files. They are irrelevant in the
TeX world, and not freely available, so we will not discuss them
further.
</li></ul>
<p>The Afm2tfm program distributed with Dvips converts an AFM file
to a TFM file and performs other useful transformations as well.

<h4 class="subsection" id="Glyph-files-1">6.1.2 Glyph files</h4>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-glyph-files"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>A <em class="dfn">glyph file</em> is a file that defines the shapes of the characters
in a font. The shapes can be defined either by outlines or by bitmaps.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-outline-fonts"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-arcs"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-splines"></a>
<p>PostScript fonts are defined as <em class="dfn">outline fonts</em>: 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 <em class="dfn">hints</em>—additional information to improve the
appearance of the font at small sizes or low resolutions.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Type-1-fonts"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-pfa-files"></a>

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002epfa-printer-font-ascii-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002epfb-printer-font-binary-files"></a>
<p>Although various kinds of PostScript outline fonts exist, by far the
most common, and the only one we will consider, is called <em class="dfn">Type 1</em>.
The glyph files for PostScript Type 1 fonts typically have names ending
in ‘<samp class="samp">.pfa</samp>’ (“printer font ASCII”) or ‘<samp class="samp">.pfb</samp>’ (“printer font
binary”).
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-bitmap-fonts"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002emf-Metafont-source-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Metafont-source-files"></a>
<p>In contrast, glyph files for Computer Modern and the other standard
TeX fonts are <em class="dfn">bitmap fonts</em>, generated from Metafont
(‘<samp class="samp">.mf</samp>’) descriptions. The Metafont program distributed with TeX
generates bitmaps from these descriptions.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-pk-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002ennnpk-packed-font-bitmaps"></a>
<p>The glyph files for TeX bitmap fonts are usually stored in
<em class="dfn">packed font</em> (PK) files. The names of these files end in
‘<samp class="samp">.<var class="var">nnn</var>pk</samp>’, where <var class="var">nnn</var> is the resolution of the font in
dots per inch. For example, <samp class="file">cmr10.600pk</samp> contains the bitmaps for
the ‘<samp class="samp">cmr10</samp>’ font at a resolution of 600<span class="dmn">dpi</span>. (On DOS
filesystems, it’s more likely <samp class="file">dpi600\cmr10.pk</samp>.)
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-gf-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-gftopk"></a>
<p>Metafont actually outputs <em class="dfn">generic font</em> (GF) files, e.g.,
<samp class="file">cmr10.600gf</samp>, but the GF files are usually converted immediately
to PK format (using the <code class="code">gftopk</code> utility that comes with TeX)
since PK files are smaller and contain the same information. (The GF
format is a historical artifact.)

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-virtual-fonts"></a>
<p>A <em class="dfn">virtual font</em> 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, <cite class="cite">TUGboat</cite> 11(1), Apr. 1990, pp. 13–23,
“Virtual Fonts: More Fun for Grand Wizards”
(<a class="url" href="mirror.ctan.org/info/virtual-fonts.knuth">mirror.ctan.org/info/virtual-fonts.knuth</a>). (Don’t be
intimidated by the subtitle.)
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-vf-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-vpl-files"></a>
<p>A virtual font (‘<samp class="samp">.vf</samp>’) 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 <code class="code">vftovp</code> and
<code class="code">vptovf</code> programs convert a VF file to a human-readable VPL
(virtual property list) format and back again. See <a data-manual="web2c" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/web2c.html#vftovp-invocation">vftovp
invocation</a> in <cite class="cite">Web2c</cite>, and <a data-manual="web2c" href="https://tug.org/texinfohtml/web2c.html#vptovf-invocation">vptovf invocation</a> in <cite class="cite">Web2c</cite>.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-base-fonts"></a>
<p>In the case of a PostScript font <var class="var">f</var> being used in a straightforward
way, the recipe says: character <var class="var">i</var> in the VF font is character
<var class="var">j</var> in font <var class="var">f</var>. The font <var class="var">f</var> is called a <em class="dfn">base font</em>.
For example, the VF file could remap the characters of the PostScript
font to the positions where TeX expects to find them.
See <a class="xref" href="#Encodings">Encodings</a>.
</p>
<p>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 <code class="code">vptovf</code>.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-expansion_002c-of-virtual-fonts"></a>

<h4 class="subsection" id="Encodings-1">6.1.4 Encodings</h4>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-encodings"></a>
<p>Every font, whatever its type, has an <em class="dfn">encoding</em>, 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 (see <a class="pxref" href="#Glyph-files">Glyph files</a>) tells how. Nor does it
specify how much space that character occupies; that information is in a
metric file (see <a class="pxref" href="#Metric-files">Metric files</a>).
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Computer-Modern_002c-encoding-of"></a>
<p>TeX implicitly assumes a particular encoding for the fonts you use
with it. For example, the plain TeX macro <code class="code">\'</code>, 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.
</p>
<p>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. See <a class="xref" href="#Making-a-font-available">Making a PostScript font available</a>.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-encoding-files"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-encoding-vectors_002c-defined"></a>
<p>PostScript represents encodings as a sequence of 256 character names
called an <em class="dfn">encoding vector</em>. An <em class="dfn">encoding file</em> (‘<samp class="samp">.enc</samp>’)
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.

<p>Examples of encodings: the <samp class="file">dvips.enc</samp> encoding file that comes
with the Fontname distribution (<a class="url" href="http://tug.org/fontname">http://tug.org/fontname</a>) 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 <samp class="file">ptmr.tfm</samp>. The
distribution includes many other encoding files; for example,
<samp class="file">8r.enc</samp>, which is the base font for the current PostScript font
distribution, and three corresponding to the TeX mathematics fonts:
<samp class="file">texmext.enc</samp> for math extensions, <samp class="file">texmital.enc</samp> for math
italics, and <samp class="file">texmsym.enc</samp> for math symbols.

<p>To dvips, bitmapped fonts do not have any notion of linguistics; they
are simply a vector of glyphs. By comparison, PostScript fonts are
required to contain an encoding vector that at least provides
glyph names; these names can permit PostScript and PDF viewers to
extract legible text from PostScript and PDF output.
</p>
<p>Unlike previous versions, dvips versions 2020 and later add glyph
naming information to Type 3 bitmapped fonts (if they can locate such
information) as an Encoding vector. This provides some support for
search, for copy and paste, and even some limited support for
accessibility. The ‘<samp class="samp">bitmapfontenc</samp>’ command line option
(see <a class="pxref" href="#Option-details">Option details</a> and <code class="code">bitmapfontenc</code> configuration option
(see <a class="pxref" href="#Configuration-file-commands">Configuration file commands</a>) enable and disable this

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-dvips_002dall_002eenc"></a>
<p>To do this, dvips must find encoding information for the bitmapped
fonts. It does this by first searching for a font-specific encoding
file; for instance, for cmr10, it will search for <samp class="file">dvips-cmr10.enc</samp>
in the standard encoding path. If it does not find such a file, it
will search for a <samp class="file">dvips-all.enc</samp> file which contains a base set of
encodings for many fonts.
</p>
<p>The specific syntax of an encoding file is unspecified, except that it
must be a PostScript fragment that leaves exactly one object on the
operand stack. (This is different from the encoding files used to
define encodings for PostScript fonts, described earlier). Normally
that object is just an array of 256 names; in this case, that array is
used as the encoding vector for the font. Alternatively, the object
can be a procedure that, when executed, leaves a legal encoding vector
on the stack. This second option is made available to support future
enhancements that may add additional constructs to the font dictionary
to enhance the interpretation of font characters.
</p>
<p>The <samp class="file">dvips-all.enc</samp> file contains encodings for many fonts, and
it is loaded by dvips at most once. The format is just a sequence of
font names, one per line, each terminated by a colon, followed by the
encoding to use for those files.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-coordinate-system_002c-for-bitmap-fonts"></a>
<p>As part of its operation, to enable heuristics in PostScript and
PDF viewers to properly identify word breaks and column gutters,
dvips also generates a modified font bounding box and a modified
font coordinate system.

<h4 class="subsection" id="How-PostScript-typesets-a-character">6.1.6 How PostScript typesets a character</h4>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-typesetting-in-PostScript"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-character-lookup-procedure-in-PostScript"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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: ‘<samp class="samp">Times-Roman</samp>’, ‘<samp class="samp">ZapfDingbats</samp>’, …) are
defined within the interpreter itself. Other fonts must be downloaded
as pfa or pfb files (see <a class="pxref" href="#Glyph-files">Glyph files</a>) from your host (the computer
on which you’re running Dvips).
</p>
<p>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
…)
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-show-PostScript-operator"></a>
<p>The basic PostScript operator for imaging characters is
<code class="code">show</code>. 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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">(S) show
</pre></div>
<p>Here is how PostScript typesets the ‘S’:
</p>
<ol class="enumerate">
<li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-ASCII-character-codes_002c-used-by-PostScript"></a>
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.)
</li><li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-current-font_002c-in-PostScript"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-dictionary_002c-PostScript-language"></a>
A PostScript <em class="dfn">dictionary</em> 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.)
<p>PostScript has a notion of “the current font”—whatever font is
currently being typeset in.
</p>
</li><li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-encoding-vectors_002c-in-Type-1-fonts"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Encoding-Type-1-dictionary"></a>
One of the mandatory entries in a font dictionary is ‘<samp class="samp">Encoding</samp>’,
which defines the encoding vector (see <a class="pxref" href="#Encodings">Encodings</a>) for that font.
This vector of 256 names maps each possible input character to a name.
</li><li> The interpreter retrieves the entry at position 83 of the encoding
vector. This value is a PostScript name: <code class="code">/S</code>.
</li><li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-CharStrings-Type-1-dictionary"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-dictionary_002c-CharStrings"></a>
For Type 1 fonts (we’re not going to discuss anything else), the
interpreter now looks up <code class="code">/S</code> as a key in a dictionary named
<code class="code">CharStrings</code>, another mandatory entry in a font dictionary.
</li><li> <a class="index-entry-id" id="index-hints"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-character-definitions-in-PostScript"></a>
The value of <code class="code">S</code> in <code class="code">CharStrings</code> is the equivalent of a
series of standard PostScript commands like ‘<samp class="samp">curveto</samp>’,
‘<samp class="samp">lineto</samp>’, ‘<samp class="samp">fill</samp>’, and so on. These commands are executed to
draw the character. There can also be <em class="dfn">hint information</em> that helps
adapt the character to low-resolution rasters. (See <a class="xref" href="#Glyph-files">Glyph files</a>.)
The commands are actually represented in a more compact way than
standard PostScript source; see the Type 1 book for details.
</li></ol>
<p>This method for typesetting characters is used in both Level 1 and Level
2 PostScript. See the PostScript reference manuals for more
information.

<h3 class="section" id="Making-a-PostScript-font-available">6.2 Making a PostScript font available</h3>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-installing-fonts"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-fonts_002c-installing"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>In the following examples, we use the font ‘<samp class="samp">Times-Roman</samp>’ 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. See <a class="xref" href="#PostScript-font-installation">PostScript font installation</a>, for pointers to
the prebuilt fonts.
</p>
<p>Installation of a PostScript font proceeds in three steps. See <a class="xref" href="#Font-concepts">Font concepts</a>, for descriptions of the various files involved.
</p>
<ol class="enumerate">
<li> Run <code class="code">afm2tfm</code> to create a TFM file for the original font,
and the VPL form of the virtual font:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">afm2tfm Times-Roman -v ptmr rptmr
</pre></div>
</li><li> Run <code class="code">vptovf</code> to generate a VF and TFM file for the virtual font
from the VPL file:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">vptovf ptmr.vpl ptmr.vf ptmr.tfm
</pre></div>
</li><li> Insert an entry for the font in <samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp> (see <a class="pxref" href="#psfonts_002emap"><samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp>: PostScript font catalog</a>):
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">rptmr Times-Roman <ptmr8a.pfa
</pre></div>
</li><li> Install the files in the standard locations, as in:
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">cp ptmr.vf <var class="var">fontdir</var>/vf/…
cp *ptmr.tfm <var class="var">fontdir</var>/tfm/…
cp ptmr.afm <var class="var">fontdir</var>/afm/…
cp ptmr.pf? <var class="var">fontdir</var>/type1/…
</pre></div>
</li></ol>
<p>The simplest invocation of Afm2tfm to make virtual fonts goes something
like this:
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-afm2tfm"></a>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">afm2tfm Times-Roman -v ptmr rptmr
</pre></div>
<p>This reads the file <samp class="file">Times-Roman.afm</samp>, and produces two files as
output, namely the virtual property list file <samp class="file">ptmr.vpl</samp>, and the
“raw” font metric file <samp class="file">rptmr.tfm</samp>. To use the font in TeX,
you first run
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-vptovf"></a>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">vptovf ptmr.vpl ptmr.vf ptmr.tfm
</pre></div>
<p>You should then install the virtual font file <samp class="file">ptmr.vf</samp> where Dvips
will see it and install <samp class="file">ptmr.tfm</samp> and <samp class="file">rptmr.tfm</samp> where
TeX and Dvips will see them.
</p>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">r</samp>’ prefix convention is likewise historical
accident.
</p>
<p>You can also make more complex virtual fonts by editing <samp class="file">ptmr.vpl</samp>
before running ‘<samp class="samp">vptovf</samp>’; such editing might add the uppercase Greek
characters in the standard TeX positions, for instance. (This has
already been done for the prebuilt fonts.)
</p>
<p>Once the files have been installed, you’re all set. You can now do
things like this in TeX:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\font\myfont = ptmr at 12pt
\myfont Hello, I am being typeset in 12-point Times-Roman.
</pre></div>
<p>Thus, we have two fonts, one actual (‘<samp class="samp">rptmr</samp>’, which is analogous to
the font in the printer) and one virtual (‘<samp class="samp">ptmr</samp>’, which has been
remapped to the standard TeX encoding (almost)), and has typesetting
know-how added. You could also say
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\font\raw = rptmr at 10pt
</pre></div>
<p>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 virtual font ‘<samp class="samp">ptmr</samp>’ 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). See <a class="xref" href="#Reencoding-with-Afm2tfm">Reencoding with Afm2tfm</a>.
</p>
<p>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
<samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp> file (see <a class="pxref" href="#psfonts_002emap"><samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp>: PostScript font catalog</a>). For our example, you’d
insert the following into <samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp>:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">rptmr Times-Roman <ptmr8a.pfa
</pre></div>
<p>Of course, <code class="code">Times-Roman</code> 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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-memory_002c-used-by-PostScript-fonts"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-efficiency_002c-and-fonts"></a>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">Z</samp>’ option) to be faster than using
the built-in PostScript fonts.

<p>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.

<p>To build a virtual font with Afm2tfm, you specify the ‘<samp class="samp">-v</samp>’ or
‘<samp class="samp">-V</samp>’ option. You can then specify an encoding for that virtual font
with ‘<samp class="samp">-t <var class="var">tex-enc</var></samp>’. (‘<samp class="samp">-t</samp>’ is ignored if neither
‘<samp class="samp">-v</samp>’ nor ‘<samp class="samp">-V</samp>’ is present.) Any ligature and kerning
information you specify in <var class="var">tex-enc</var> will be used in the VPL, in
addition to the ligature and kerning information from the AFM file.
</p>
<p>If the AFM file has no entry for a character specified in <var class="var">tex-enc</var>,
that character will be omitted from the output VPL.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-texmsym_002eenc-1"></a>
<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">-t</samp>’ 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
<samp class="file">texmsym.enc</samp> file supplied with Dvips. (For a start; to actually
get usable math fonts, you have to define much more than just an
encoding.)

<p>By default, Afm2tfm uses the encoding it finds in the AFM file. You can
specify a different PostScript encoding with ‘<samp class="samp">-p <var class="var">ps-enc</var></samp>’.
This makes the raw TFM file (the one output by Afm2tfm) have the
encoding specified in the encoding file <var class="var">ps-enc</var>. Any ligature or
kern information specified in <var class="var">ps-enc</var> is ignored by Afm2tfm, since
ligkern info is always omitted from the raw TFM.
</p>
<p>If you use this option, you must also arrange to download <var class="var">ps-enc</var>
as part of any document that uses this font. You do this by adding a
line like the following one to <samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp> (see <a class="pxref" href="#psfonts_002emap"><samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp>: PostScript font catalog</a>):

<p>Using ‘<samp class="samp">-p</samp>’ is the only way to access characters in a PostScript

characters. For instance, Adobe’s ‘<samp class="samp">Times-Roman</samp>’ font contains the

these can only be accessed through such a PostScript reencoding.

corresponding to a PostScript font by <em class="dfn">reencoding</em> 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.
</p>
<p>In the default case, when you specify none of the <code class="code">-t</code>, <code class="code">-p</code>,
or <code class="code">-T</code> 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 <em class="dfn">remapping</em>.
</p>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">acute</samp>’; then the default PostScript encoding, as
found in the AFM file for an ordinary PostScript font, maps the
character name ‘<samp class="samp">acute</samp>’ 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.

<p>The default encoding of the distributed fonts (e.g., <samp class="file">ptmr.tfm</samp>)
mostly follows plain TeX conventions for accents. The exceptions:
the Hungarian umlaut (which is at position <code class="code">0x7D</code> in ‘<samp class="samp">cmr10</samp>’,
but position <code class="code">0xCD</code> in ‘<samp class="samp">ptmr</samp>’); the dot accent (at positions
<code class="code">0x5F</code> and <code class="code">0xC7</code>, respectively); and the Scandinavian A ring
<code class="code">\AA</code>, whose definition needs different tweaking. In order to use
these accents with PostScript fonts or in math mode when
<code class="code">\textfont0</code> 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 <samp class="file">psfonts.sty</samp> for use with LaTeX.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-encoding-file-format"></a>
<p>Afm2tfm’s encoding files have the same format as an encoding vector in a
PostScript font. Here is a skeletal example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">% <span class="r">Comments are ignored, unless the first word after the percent sign</span>
% <span class="r">is ‘<samp class="samp">LIGKERN</samp>’; see below.</span>
/MyEncoding [ % <span class="r">exactly 256 entries follow, each with a leading ‘<samp class="samp">/</samp>’</span>
/Alpha /Beta /Gamma /Delta …
/A /B … /Z
… /.notdef /xfooaccent /yfooaccent /zfooaccent
] def
</pre></div>
<p>These encoding files are downloaded as part of changing the encoding at
the PostScript level (see the previous section).
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-comments_002c-in-encoding-files"></a>
<p>Comments, which start with a percent sign and continue until the end
of the line, are ignored unless they start with ‘<samp class="samp">LIGKERN</samp>’ (see below).
</p>
<p>The first non-comment word of the file must start with a forward slash
‘<samp class="samp">/</samp>’ (i.e., a PostScript literal name) and defines the name of the
encoding. The next word must be an left bracket ‘<samp class="samp">[</samp>’. Following
that must be precisely 256 character names; use ‘<samp class="samp">/.notdef</samp>’ for any
that you want to leave undefined. Then there must be a matching right
bracket <code class="code">]</code>. A final ‘<samp class="samp">def</samp>’ token is optional. All names are
case-sensitive.
</p>
<p>Any ligature or kern information is given as a comment. If the first
word after the ‘<samp class="samp">%</samp>’ is ‘<samp class="samp">LIGKERN</samp>’, 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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-LIGKERN-encoding-file-command"></a>
<p>In these <code class="code">LIGKERN</code> 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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-boundary-character"></a>
<p>Throughout a <code class="code">LIGKERN</code> statement, the boundary character is
specified as ‘<samp class="samp">||</samp>’. To set the font’s boundary character value for
TeX:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">% LIGKERN || = 39 ;
</pre></div>
<p>To indicate a kern to remove, give the names of the two characters
(without the leading slash) separated by ‘<samp class="samp">{}</samp>’, as in ‘<samp class="samp">one
{} one ;</samp>’. This is intended to be reminiscent of the way you might
use ‘<samp class="samp">{}</samp>’ 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 ‘<samp class="samp">*</samp>’, which is a wild card matching any character; thus, all
kerns can be removed with ‘<samp class="samp">* {} * ;</samp>’.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-ligature-operations"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Metafont-ligature-operations"></a>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">||</samp>’ to indicate a word boundary.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_003d_003a-ligature-operation"></a>
<p>The most common operation is ‘<samp class="samp">=:</samp>’ meaning that both characters are
removed and replaced by the third character, but by adding the ‘<samp class="samp">|</samp>’
character on either side of the ‘<samp class="samp">=:</samp>’, you can retain either or both
of the two leading characters. In addition, by suffixing the ligature
operation with one or two ‘<samp class="samp">></samp>’ 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 ‘<samp class="samp">f i =: fi ;</samp>’<!-- /@w -->. A more convoluted
ligature is ‘<samp class="samp">one one |=:|>> exclam ;</samp>’ which separates a pair of
adjacent <code class="code">1</code>’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 <code class="t">></code>’s than <code class="t">|</code>’s in an ligature
operation, so there are a total of eight possibilities:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">=: |=: |=:> =:| =:|> |=:| |=:|> |=:|>>
</pre></div>
<p>The default set of ligatures and kerns built in to Afm2tfm is:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">% 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 ;

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-fonts_002c-slanted"></a>
<p>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.)
</p>
<p>‘<samp class="samp">-s <var class="var">slant</var></samp>’ makes an obliqued variant, as in:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">afm2tfm Times-Roman -s .167 -v ptmro rptmro
</pre></div>
<p>This creates <samp class="file">ptmro.vpl</samp> and <samp class="file">rptmro.tfm</samp>. To use this font,
put the line
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-SlantFont"></a>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">rptmro Times-Roman ".167 SlantFont"
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-psfonts_002emap-1"></a>
<p>into <samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp>. Then ‘<samp class="samp">rptmro</samp>’ (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 <code class="code">SlantFont</code>
(which will slant everything 1/6 to the right, in this case).
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-expanded-fonts"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-fonts_002c-expanded"></a>
<p>Similarly, you can get an expanded font with
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">afm2tfm Times-Roman -e 1.2 -v ptmrre rptmrre
</pre></div>
<p>and by recording the pseudo-resident font
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-ExtendFont"></a>
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">rptmrre Times-Roman "1.2 ExtendFont"
</pre></div>
<p>in <samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp>.
</p>
<p>You can also create a small caps font with a command such as
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-small-caps-fonts"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-fonts_002c-small-caps"></a>
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">afm2tfm Times-Roman -V ptmrc rptmrc
</pre></div>
<p>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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">afm2tfm Times-Roman -c 0.7 -V ptmrc rptmrc
</pre></div>
<p>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.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-PaintType"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-outline-fonts-1"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-fonts_002c-outlined"></a>
<p>To change the <code class="code">PaintType</code> in a font from filled (0) to outlined
(2), you can add <code class="code">"/PaintType 2 store"</code> to <samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp>, as
in the following:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">rphvrl Helvetica "/PaintType 2 store"
</pre></div>
<p>Afm2tfm writes to standard output the line you need to add to
<samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp> to use that font, assuming the font is resident in
the printer; if the font is not resident, you must add the
‘<samp class="samp"><<var class="var">filename</var></samp>’ command to download the font. Each identical
line only needs to be specified once in the ‘<samp class="samp">psfonts.map</samp>’ file,
even though many different fonts (small caps variants, or ones with
different output encodings) may be based on it.

<p>Synopsis:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">afm2tfm [<var class="var">option</var>]… <var class="var">afmfile</var>[.afm] [<var class="var">tfmfile</var>[.tfm]]
</pre></div>
<p>Afm2tfm reads <var class="var">afmfile</var> and writes a corresponding (but “raw”,
see below) TFM file. If <var class="var">tfmfile</var> is not supplied, the base name
of the AFM file is extended with ‘<samp class="samp">.tfm</samp>’ to get the output
filename.
</p>
<p>The simplest example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">afm2tfm Times-Roman rptmr
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-accents_002c-wrong"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-raw-tfm-files"></a>
<p>The TFM file thus created is <em class="dfn">raw</em> because it omits ligature and
kern information, and does no character remapping; it contains only
the character information in the AFM file in TFM format, 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 (see <a class="pxref" href="#Encodings">Encodings</a>). Although the encodings agree for most
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 ‘<samp class="samp">-v</samp>’ or ‘<samp class="samp">-V</samp>’ option.
See <a class="xref" href="#Making-a-font-available">Making a PostScript font available</a>.

<dd><a class="index-entry-id" id="index-accent-height-adjustment_002c-omitting"></a>
<p>By default, Afm2tfm looks for precomposed accented characters, such as
tdieresis, and possibly adjusts the height of the basic letter (t)
upward so that the result of using <code class="code">\accent</code> (as in <code class="code">\"t</code>)
is visually the same as the precomposed characters. The <code class="code">-a</code>
option omits such adjustments, so that all characters’ heights remain
as they are given in the AFM file. (Until Afm2tfm 8.4, released in
2016, heights could also be adjusted downward, but this is no longer
the case.)

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-reencoding-PostScript-fonts"></a>
<p>You can change the encoding of the Type 1 font at the PostScript
level with a ‘<samp class="samp">ReEncodeFont</samp>’ 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:
</p><div class="example smallexample">
<pre class="example-preformatted">pstrn8r StoneInformal "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <pstrn8a.pfb
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-8r-font-encoding"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-base-encoding_002c-recommended"></a>
<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">8r</samp>’ 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
<samp class="file">8r.enc</samp> source file that comes with (and is installed with) Dvips.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_003c_005b-encoding-vector-downloading"></a>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp"><[</samp>’ to explicitly indicate you are downloading an
encoding vector, as in:
</p><div class="example smallexample">
<pre class="example-preformatted">pstrn8r StoneInformal "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <[8r.enc <pstrn8a.pfb
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002eenc-extension-for-encoding-vectors"></a>
<p>If the filename of your encoding vector does not end in ‘<samp class="samp">.enc</samp>’, and
you are using partial font downloading, you must use the ‘<samp class="samp"><[</samp>’
syntax, or Dvips will not download the font properly.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002epfa-extension-required-for-partial-downloading"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_002epfb-extension-required-for-partial-downloading"></a>
<p>Similarly, the name of the Type 1 font file itself must have extension
<samp class="file">.pfa</samp> or <samp class="file">.pfb</samp> for partial downloading to work properly.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-pfb-files_002c-automatically-unpacked"></a>
<p>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 (see <a class="pxref" href="#Header-files">PostScript header files</a>).
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-partial-font-downloading"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-downloading-fonts-partially"></a>
<p>If the ‘<samp class="samp">j</samp>’ config file or command-line option is enabled (as it
is by default), <samp class="file">StoneInformal.pfb</samp> will be <em class="dfn">partially

be extracted and downloaded, and the remainder discarded.

<p>Adobe Multiple Master fonts, such as Minion, cannot be partially

</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">pmnr8r Minion <<Minion.pfb

<p>Here is a brief summary of how <samp class="file">psfonts.map</samp> is read:
</p>
<ol class="enumerate">
<li> If a line is empty or begins with a space, percent, asterisk,
semicolon, or hash mark, it is ignored.
</li><li> 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.
</li><li> If a word starts with ‘<samp class="samp"><<</samp>’, it is taken as a font file to be
wholly downloaded. Use this to avoid partial downloading, as described
above.
</li><li> If a word starts with ‘<samp class="samp"><[</samp>’, it is taken as an encoding file
to be downloaded. Use this if the name of the encoding file does end in
‘<samp class="samp">.enc</samp>’, also as described above.
</li><li> If a word starts with a ‘<samp class="samp"><</samp>’ character, it is
treated as a header file that needs to be downloaded. If the name ends
in ‘<samp class="samp">.pfa</samp>’ or ‘<samp class="samp">.pfb</samp>’, it is taken as Type 1 font file that will
be partially downloaded if the ‘<samp class="samp">j</samp>’ option is in effect. There can
be more than one such header for a given font. If a ‘<samp class="samp"><</samp>’ is a word
by itself, the next word is taken as the name of the header file.
</li><li> If a word starts with a ‘<samp class="samp">"</samp>’ 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.)
</li><li> Otherwise the word is a name. The first such name is the TFM
file, that either a DVI file or a virtual font file can refer to. If
there is a second name, it is used as the PostScript name and should
match what is defined in the downloaded file; if there is only one
name, it is used for both the TeX name and the PostScript name.

<p>Dvips supports one-pass multi-color printing of TeX documents on any
color PostScript device. Initially added by Jim Hafner, IBM Research,
<a class="email" href="mailto:hafner@almaden.ibm.com">hafner@almaden.ibm.com</a>, the color support has gone through many
changes by Tomas Rokicki. Besides the source code support itself, there
are additional TeX macro files: ‘<samp class="samp">colordvi.tex</samp>’ and
‘<samp class="samp">blackdvi.tex</samp>’, and corresponding ‘<samp class="samp">.sty</samp>’ versions for use with
LaTeX.
</p>
<p>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.

<p>All the color macro commands are defined in ‘<samp class="samp">colordvi.tex</samp>’ (or
‘<samp class="samp">colordvi.sty</samp>’). To access these macros simply add to the top of
your plain TeX file the command:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\input colordvi
</pre></div>
<p>For (the obsolete) LaTeX 2.09, add the ‘<samp class="samp">colordvi</samp>’ style option as in:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\documentstyle[12pt,colordvi]{article}
</pre></div>
<p>For LaTeX2e, these examples are not applicable. Instead, please see
the documentation for the graphics package
(<a class="url" href="https://ctan.org/pkg/graphics">https://ctan.org/pkg/graphics</a>), and the epslatex document
(<a class="url" href="https://ctan.org/pkg/epslatex">https://ctan.org/pkg/epslatex</a>).

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Crayola-crayon-box"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Pantone-colors"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-color-names_002c-mixed-case"></a>
<p>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
(see <a class="pxref" href="#User_002ddefinable-colors">User-definable colors</a>). You can browse the file
‘<samp class="samp">colordvi.tex</samp>’ for a list of the predefined colors. The comments
in this file also show a rough correspondence between the crayon names
and Pantones.
</p>
<p>A local color command has the form
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\<var class="var">ColorName</var>{this is the color <var class="var">ColorName</var>}
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_005cColorName"></a>
<p>where <var class="var">ColorName</var> is the name of a predefined color, e.g.,
‘<samp class="samp">Blue</samp>’. 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:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">This text is normal but here we are \Red{switching to red,
\Blue{nesting blue}, recovering the red} and back to original.
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-color-nesting-level"></a>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>The global color command has the form
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\text<var class="var">ColorName</var>
</pre></div>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-_005ctextColorName"></a>
<p>These macros take no arguments and changes the default color from that
point on to <var class="var">ColorName</var>. 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
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\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.
</pre></div>
<p>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 <code class="code">\halign</code>, ‘<samp class="samp">tabular</samp>’ or ‘<samp class="samp">eqnarray</samp>’,
local color commands cannot extend beyond the alignment characters.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.

<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-colors_002c-user_002ddefinable"></a>
<p>There are two ways for the user to specify colors not already defined.
For local changes, there is the command <code class="code">\Color</code> 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
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\Color{.5 .85 .4 .2}{this color is pretty}
</pre></div>
<p>For global color changes, there is a command <code class="code">\textColor</code> 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
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\textColor{.5 .85 .4 .2}
The text from now on will be this pretty color
</pre></div>
<p>will do the trick.
</p>
<p>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.

<p>Color macros are defined via <code class="code">\special</code> keywords. As such, they
are put in the ‘<samp class="samp">.dvi</samp>’ 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
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">\headline{\Black{My Header}}
\footline{\Black{\hss\tenrm\folio\hss}}
</pre></div>
<p>This warning also applies to figures and other insertions, so be careful!
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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 <code class="code">\special</code> command to turn the color on before the
text, and outputting another <code class="code">\special</code> 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 <code class="code">\leavevmode</code>.

<h3 class="section" id="Printing-in-black_002fwhite-after-colorizing">7.4 Printing in black/white after colorizing</h3>
<p>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 <samp class="file">colordvi.tex</samp> with
‘<samp class="samp">blackdvi.tex</samp>’ (and similarly for the ‘<samp class="samp">.sty</samp>’ files). So in
the above example, replacing the word ‘<samp class="samp">colordvi</samp>’ with
‘<samp class="samp">blackdvi</samp>’ suffices. <samp class="file">blackdvi.tex</samp> 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.

<p>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
‘<samp class="samp">color.lpro</samp>’ 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 ‘<samp class="samp">setcmykcolor</samp>’ and
‘<samp class="samp">currentcmykcolor</samp>’ in terms of a RGB equivalent so if your device
only understands RGB, there should be no problem.
</p>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Phaser-printer_002c-used-for-color-calibration"></a>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-Tektronix-Phaser-printer_002c-used-for-color-calibration"></a>
<p>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
‘<samp class="samp">color.lpro</samp>’ prior to compilation and installation. A better
alternative, which supports multiple devices, is to add a header file
option in the configuration file (see <a class="pxref" href="#Configuration-file-commands">Configuration file commands</a>)
for each device that defines, in ‘<samp class="samp">userdict</samp>’, the color parameters
for those colors that need redefining.
</p>
<p>For example, if you need to change the parameters defining
‘<samp class="samp">Goldenrod</samp>’ (approximately Pantone 109 on the Phaser) for your
device ‘<samp class="samp">mycolordev</samp>’, do the following. In the Pantone chart for
your device, find the CMYK values for Pantone 109. Let’s say they are
‘<samp class="samp">{\ 0 0.10 0.75 0.03 }</samp>’. Then create a header file named
‘<samp class="samp">mycolordev.pro</samp>’ with the commands
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">userdict begin
/Goldenrod { 0 0.10 0.75 0.03 setcmykcolor} bind def
</pre></div>
<p>Finally, in ‘<samp class="samp">config.mycolordev</samp>’ add the line
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">h mycolordev.pro
</pre></div>
<p>This will then define ‘<samp class="samp">Goldenrod</samp>’ in your device’s CMYK values in
<samp class="file">userdict</samp> which is checked before defining it in <samp class="file">TeXdict</samp> by
<samp class="file">color.pro</samp>. (On MS-DOS, you will have to call this file
<samp class="file">mycolordev.cfg</samp>.)
</p>
<p>This mechanism, together with additions to <samp class="file">colordvi.tex</samp> and
<samp class="file">blackdvi.tex</samp> (and the ‘<samp class="samp">.sty</samp>’ files), can also be used to
predefine other colors for your users.

<h4 class="subsection" id="Color-specifications-1">7.6.1 Color specifications</h4>
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-color-specifications"></a>
<p>What is a color specification? One of three things. First, it might be
a PostScript procedure as defined in a PostScript header file. The
<samp class="file">color.pro</samp> file defines 64 of these, including ‘<samp class="samp">Maroon</samp>’.
This PostScript procedure must set the current color to be some value;
in this case, ‘<samp class="samp">Maroon</samp>’ is defined as ‘<samp class="samp">0 0.87 0.68 0.32
setcmykcolor</samp>’.
</p>
<p>The second possibility is the name of a color model (initially, one of
‘<samp class="samp">rgb</samp>’, ‘<samp class="samp">hsb</samp>’, ‘<samp class="samp">cmyk</samp>’, or ‘<samp class="samp">gray</samp>’) 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 ‘<samp class="samp">TeXcolor</samp>’ to the color model. Thus, the color
specification ‘<samp class="samp">rgb 0.3 0.4 0.5</samp>’ would generate the PostScript code
‘<samp class="samp">0.3 0.4 0.5 TeXrgbcolor</samp>’. Note that the case of zero arguments is
disallowed, as that is handled by the single keyword case
(‘<samp class="samp">Maroon</samp>’) above, where no changes to the name are made before it
is sent to the PostScript file.
</p>
<p>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
‘<samp class="samp">"AggiePattern setpattern</samp>’ will set the ‘color’ to the Aggie logo
pattern (assuming such exists.)

<h4 class="subsection" id="Color-specials-1">7.6.2 Color specials</h4>
<p>We will describe ‘<samp class="samp">background</samp>’ first, since it is the simplest. The
‘<samp class="samp">background</samp>’ keyword must be followed by a color specification.
That color specification is used as a fill color for the background.
The last ‘<samp class="samp">background</samp>’ 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.)
</p>
<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">color</samp>’ special itself has three forms.
The first is just ‘<samp class="samp">color</samp>’ 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.
</p>
<p>The second form is ‘<samp class="samp">color push</samp>’ 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.
</p>
<p>The final version of the ‘<samp class="samp">color</samp>’ special is just ‘<samp class="samp">color pop</samp>’,
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.
</p>
<p>Dvips correctly handles these color specials across pages, even when the
pages are repeated or reversed.
</p>
<p>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 ‘<samp class="samp">gsave</samp>’ or
‘<samp class="samp">grestore</samp>’ is used. This means that you cannot easily mix usage of
the ‘<samp class="samp">color</samp>’ 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.
