Using the xetops Utility

The xetops utility produces a bitmapped graphics printed image.

The Simplified Chinese Solaris operating environment includes the xetops utility so any system can print Simplified Chinese on a PostScript printer.

Using xetops is described in Simplified Chinese Solaris User's Guide, in the chapter "Simplified Chinese Printing Facilities," and in the xetops(1) man page.

A typical command line for printing a file named filename containing Simplified Chinese characters with or without ASCII/English characters, would be as follows:

system% pr filename | xetops | lp 

Make filename the name of the file to print. This file can contain ASCII/English characters as well as Simplified Chinese.
