\shead{NAME}
fbps -- convert grayscale to postscript
\shead{SYNOPSIS}
\nofill
fbps [-tT] [-pP] [ -s ] [ -w$<$width$>$ ] $<$ grayscale $>$ foo.PS
\fill
\shead{DESCRIPTION}
\par
Converts an fbm format file into a postscript file for printing. The
{\bf -s}
flag generates a file suitable for including in a postscript document
(for example, Scribe or LaTex output) with no document structuring,
titles, or trailing "showpage".  By default, the image's title is
printed in a large font centered over the image, and a small banner
giving the size is printed under the lower right corner.
The
{\bf -T}
and 
{\bf -P}
arguments disable the title and print size options.
\par\vspace{1.0\baselineskip}
There really ought to be an option to print the credits instead of the
size, but I haven't done it yet.
\shead{EXAMPLE}
\par
To convert a Sun 8bit grayscale rasterfile to a full page postscript file:
\par\vspace{1.0\baselineskip}
	\% fbps $<$ foo.8bit $>$ foo.PS
\par\vspace{1.0\baselineskip}
To convert a color GIF file to a 3 inch wide grayscale postscript file
for inclusion in a Scribe or TeX document:
\par\vspace{1.0\baselineskip}
	\% clr2gray $<$ foo.gif $|$ fbps -s -w3.0 $>$ foo.PS
\par\vspace{1.0\baselineskip}
To print a 1 bit deep Sun rasterfile in postscript, use fbcat and
pbm2ps:
\par\vspace{1.0\baselineskip}
	\% fbcat -P $<$ foo.1bit $|$ pbm2ps $>$ foo.PS
\shead{SEE ALSO}
fbcat(1) and pbm2ps(1) for converting 1 bit deep files to PostScript.
fbm(1) for general discussion, pbm(1) for PBM routines.
\shead{BUGS}
None known.
