Description
Psresize
rescales and centres a document on a different size of paper.
The input PostScript file should follow the Adobe Document Structuring
Conventions.
The -w option gives the output paper width, and the -h
option gives the output paper height, normally specified in `cm'
or `in' to convert PostScript's points (1/72 of an inch)
to centimeters or inches. The -p option can be used as an
alternative, to set the output paper size to
a3, a4, a5, b5, letter, legal, tabloid, statement, executive, folio, quarto
or 10x14. The default output paper size is
a4.
The -W option gives the input paper width, and the -H
option gives the input paper height.
The -P option can be used as an alternative, to set the input paper
size. The default input paper size is a4.
Psresize normally prints the page numbers of the pages output; the
-q option suppresses this.
Examples
The following command can be used to convert a document on A4 size paper to
letter size paper:
psresize -PA4 -pletter in.ps > out.ps
