Greetings, I searched the archive, found some stuff that's useful but not yet exactly what I am looking for.
I have been charged with taking some reports that were designed to be line-printed in landscape (i.e., 132 characters wide), and magically get them into tiff in portrait format....so they can be viewed by a Medical Coder in another location. It's a good thing I believe in Open Source. I have been using a command like a2ps -1 -l132 -ooutput.ps output then gs -sDEVICE=tiffg4 -sOutputFile=output.tiff output.ps What I get is very close, but needs fine-tuning. I need a document that can be viewed on the screen for doing data entry. So, I need to make this report a bit easier to read. Ideas: -bold - ( um, I found this in the docs, did it once, lost it....will search again :-) -interline spacing - makes it easier to pick out data (I saw something for this in the docs for enscript, but I don't think that's a better tool) -eliminate all headers/trailers (like --noheaders) -eliminate borders so font can be bigger (have not found this yet). Switching font may be helpful, eg, an Arial.....but I haven't figured that out yet. I would appreciate any pointers to more detailed examples (on web or even a book). Thanks Seth
