NAME
       dipress - convert device independent troff output to interpress

SYNOPSIS
       dipress [ -fdirectory ] [ -olist ] [ -t ] [ file ] ...

DESCRIPTION
       Dipress	take  the  output  of device independent troff(1) found in the
       files specified, produce an interpress file, and queue  that  file  for
       printing	 on  the  interpress printer.  If no files are specified, then
       standard input is used.	The following options are understood:

       -fdirectory
	      Take font information from directory instead of the default.

       -olist Print pages whose numbers are given in the comma‐separated list.
	      The  list contains single numbers N and ranges N1-N2.  A missing
	      N1 means the lowest numbered page, a missing N2 means the	 high‐
	      est.

       -t     Direct  output  to  standard output rather than the printer.  No
	      queueing is performed if this option is specified.   Redirecting
	      standard output is highly recommended when this option is used.

       Dipress	is  not	 usually  called  by users directly.  The shell script
       ``iptroff'' is typically used instead.

FILES
       /usr/local/lib/font/devipress device and font information

SEE ALSO
       troff(1)

BUGS
       If you have Services 9 or earlier on  your  printer,  long  boxes  will
       experience a small over or under-shoot at the right end.

       For a similar reason, it is recommended that the -D option be used with
       pic(1).
