Content-Type: text
Content-Length: 878There is a shell program at moon.cecer.army.mil called add.pagesize.
This puts in a pagesize command into the postscript file and helps with
the paper waste problem.Do remember to edit the file if you're going to use A4 or A3 sized
sheets, because the standard version of add.pagesize includes a 200 pixel
wide left and top margin to the original postscript file, which is quite
a lot on a small sheet. By the way, the problem seems to be HP: there is
no such command as 'pagesize' in the original PostScript language, but HP
printers which read it expect the pagesize to be included.Philip Verhagen
