- The dvi2xx family consists of the following programs:
-
- Dvilj2 converts TeX-output .dvi files into HP PCL (i.e. HP
- Printer Control Language) commands suitable for printing on a HP
- LaserJet+, HP LaserJet II and fully compatible printers.
-
- Dvilj2p converts TeX-output .dvi files into HP PCL commands suit-
- able for printing on a HP LaserJet IIp, HP LaserJet III or HP
- Laserjet 2000 and fully compatible printers. This version uses a
- newer PCL command set and provides landscape printing.
-
- Dviljp and dvilj are similar to dvilj2p and dvilj2 but they sup-
- port only 128 character fonts. They may be used for Laserjet
- clones which do not support 256 character fonts.
-
- Dvi3812 converts TeX-output .dvi files into PMP files, the native
- command language of the IBM 3812 page printer.
-
- binary versions are available for:
- - aix 3.1 rs6000
- - hpux 7.0 risc
- - msdos
- - os/2
- - ultrix 4.2 risc

-
- config.h
- most important:
- FONTAREA:
- fontpath leading to font directories; can be
- overuled at runtiime by setting the
- environment variable TEXPXL or the command
- line option -a
- default: "/usr/local/lib/tex/pk300"
- (VMS default: "tex$pkdir:")
-
- MAKETEXPK:
- Name of the program which is called to generate a pk

- default: "MakeTeXPK"
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
- execution under MS-DOS:
- CONFIG.SYS:
- files=20
- buffers=30
- -----------------------------------------------------------------

- DESTDIR:
- Name of the directory where the neewly generated fonts
- should be placed finally
- default: /usr/local/lib/tex/pk/pk300
-

-
- directory for where the MetaFont compilation takes
- place, and where intermediate files are put in, and
- which is removed after the MakeTeXPK run.
- default: /usr/tmp/mtpk.$$
