DESCRIPTION

   This  utility  provides  functionality  approximately equivalent to the
   Unix enscript(1) program.  It prints plain text files  using  a  single
   font.  It currently handles tabs and formfeeds, but not backspaces.  It
   will line-wrap when using fixed-pitch fonts.  It will also  do  kerning
   and width adjustment.

   The default device (-sDEVICE=) and resolution (-r) are as follows:
         gslp      epson      180
         gsbj      bj10e      180
         gsdj      deskjet    300
         gsdj500   djet500    300
         gslj      laserjet   300
   By default the current date is formatted as the center header.

OPTIONS

   Standard switches implemented:
          -12BclqRr -b<header> -f<font> -F<hfont> -L<lines> -p<outfile>

   Sun switches implemented:
          -T<n>     set tab width

   Switches ignored:
          -GghKkmow -# -C -d -J -n -P -S -s -t -v

   Switches added:

          --add-to-space <units>
                 add  the given number of 1/72" units to the width of each
                 space (may be negative)

          --add-to-width <units>
                 add the given number of 1/72" units to the width of  each
                 character (may be negative)

          --columns <n>
                 print in <n> columns

          --detect
                 treat the file as PostScript if it starts with %!

          --first-page <n>
                 start printing at page <n>

          --kern <file.afm>
                 kern using information from the given .AFM file

          --last-page <n>
                 stop printing after page <n>

          --(heading|footing)-(left|center|right) <string>
                 set the heading/footing fields; use -B first to clear

          --margin-(top|bottom|left|right) <inches>
                 set a margin

          --no-eject-(file|formfeed)
                 end-of-file/FF only starts a new column, not a new sheet

          --spacing <n>
                 use double (n=2), triple (n=3), etc. spacing
   Also,  the  string %# in a heading or footing is replaced with the page
   #.
