It is usually invoked as a filter program by the _s_e_n_d_f_a_x(1) program. Input files may be specified on the command line. If none are given, then _t_e_x_t_f_m_t will read from standard input. By default, _t_e_x_t_f_m_t will generate an output document that is formtted with a single vertical column of text, set in a 10 point fixed width font, and with a simple page header that consists of the file name, last modification date, and the page number. Pages are generated according to the default page dimensions (see _p_a_g_e_s_i_z_e_s(4F)). When multi-column output is requested, text is set by default with a 7 point fixed width font. OOOOPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS Many of the options to _t_e_x_t_f_m_t have been chosen for compatibility with the Adobe Systems' _e_n_s_c_r_i_p_t program; other options are for features that are not provided by _e_n_s_c_r_i_p_t. ----1111 Set text in one column. ----2222 Set text two columns. ----BBBB Suppress page headers. ----cccc Clip long text lines instead of wrapping them at page margins. ----DDDD Do not use ISO 8859-1 encoding in the generated POSTSCRIPT. ----ffff _f_o_n_t Set text using the POSTSCRIPT font named _f_o_n_t. ----GGGG Use a gaudy-style page header. ----mmmm _c_o_l_s Set text in _c_o_l_s columns. ----MMMMllll====#,rrrr====#,tttt====#,bbbb====# Set the page margins; the default margins are: left and right .25 inch, top .85 inch, bottom .5 inch.

Images are normally created with a system-default page size (usually letter-size pages, 8.5" by 11", for sites in North America). Alternate page sizes are specified symbolically using either the name or abbreviation of an entry in the _p_a_g_e_s_i_z_e_s(4F) database; e.g. _a_3 (ISO A3), _a_4 (ISO A4), _a_5 (ISO A5), _a_6 (ISO A6), _b_4 (ISO B4), _n_a-_l_e_t (North American Letter), _u_s-_l_e_g (American Legal), _u_s-_l_e_d (American Ledger), _u_s-_e_x_e (American Executive), _j_p-_l_e_t (Japanese Letter), and _j_p-_l_e_g (Japanese Legal). Comparisons are case-insensitive and any match of a substring of the full page-size name is sufficient; e.g. ``legal'' would match ``American Legal''. ----UUUU Reverse collate pages; that is the last page will appear first in the resultant POSTSCRIPT, then the next-to-last page, etc. ----VVVV _s_p_a_c_i_n_g Set the line height; the default height is 1.2 x point size.
