SYNOPSISposttek [-c num] [-f name] [-m num] [-n num] [-o list]
[-p mode] [-w num] [-x num] [-y num] [file]...
/usr/lib/lp/postscript/posttek
DESCRIPTION
The posttek filter translates Tektronix 4014 graphics files into Post‐
Script and writes the results on the standard output. If no files are
specified, or if − is one of the input files, the standard input is
read.
OPTIONS-c num Print num copies of each page. By default, only one copy is
printed.
-f name Print text using font name. Any PostScript font can be used,
although the best results will be obtained only with con‐
stant width fonts. The default font is Courier.
-m num Magnify each logical page by the factor num. Pages are
scaled uniformly about the origin which, by default, is
located at the center of each page. The default magnifica‐
tion is 1.0.
-n num Print num logical pages on each piece of paper, where num
can be any positive integer. By default, num is set to 1.
-o list 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 highest. The page range is an expression of logi‐
cal pages rather than physical sheets of paper. For example,
if you are printing two logical pages to a sheet, and you
specified a range of 4, then two sheets of paper would
print, containing four page layouts. If you specified a page
range of 3-4, when requesting two logical pages to a sheet;
then only page 3 and page 4 layouts would print, and they
would appear on one physical sheet of paper.
-p mode Print files in either portrait or landscape mode. Only the
first character of mode is significant. The default mode is
landscape.
-w num Set the line width used for graphics to num points, where a
point is approximately 1/72 of an inch. By default, num is
set to 0 points, which forces lines to be one pixel wide.
-x num Translate the origin num inches along the positive x axis.
The default coordinate system has the origin fixed at the
center of the page, with positive x to the right and posi‐
tive y up the page. Positive num moves everything right. The
default offset is 0.0 inches.
-y num Translate the origin num inches along the positive y axis.
Positive num moves everything up the page. The default off‐
set is 0.0.

0 Successful completion.

as the one used by the PS-2400.
