psmandup FILE
PSMANDUP(1) FSF PSMANDUP(1) NAME psmandup - print duplex on non duplex printers SYNOPSIS psmandup FILE DESCRIPTION Tries to produce a version of the PostScript FILE to print in manual Duplex. OPTIONS -h, --help display this help and exit -v, --version display version information and exit -q, --quiet don't print informational messages -o, --output=FILE save result in FILE. If FILE is `-', send to stdout -n, --no-fix don't call fixps to fix PS problems in FILE -f, --front output only the front pages (recto) on the regular tray -b, --back output only the back pages (verso) on the manual feed tray Produced output is meant for PS level 2 printers which don't support Duplex printing, but support Manual Feed. Once the first set of pages is printed (odd pages), manual feed is asked: introduce the odd pages to print the even pages on the other side. Because there is usually a short time out for manually fed jobs, you should really be next to the printer. If ever the time out expired, use the option -b to send only the missing part. Environment variables FIXPS, PSSELECT and PSSET, if defined, are used to find the tools. News, updates and documentation: http://www.inf.enst.fr/~demaille/a2ps/ AUTHOR Written by Akim Demaille.
