Traditional Chinese Solaris User's Guide

Printing With the xetops Utility

The xetops utility allows you to print Traditional Chinese characters using a PostScript-based printer in zh_TW, zh_TW.BIG5 or zh_HK.BIG5HK locales. The utility converts Traditional Chinese text into a bitmapped graphics printed image.

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


system% pr filename | xetops | lp 

The file may contain ASCII/English characters as well as Traditional Chinese. Refer to the xetops(1) man page for more detailed information.
