- scalefactor ] [ -im text ] [ -l length ] [ -LM size ] [ -o

-
- DESCRIPTION
- The program html2ps converts one or more HTML files to
- PostScript. If no filename is given, html2ps reads from
- standard input. If more than one file is specified, they
- will be concatenated.
-
- The current version does not support in-line images, the
- <ISINDEX> tag and <FORM> with associated tags.
-
- OPTIONS
- -a Do not interpret nested highlighting tags additively.
- For example "<B><I>some text</I></B>" will normally
- produce bold italic text. With the -a option, the text
- will be italic but not bold (only the innermost tag is
- interpreted).
-
- -C Check the syntax of the HTML file (using an external
- syntax checker). No PostScript code is generated. The
- default is to not make a syntax check.
-
- -c Like the -C option, but PostScript code is also gen-
- erated. If you use this option, you may also have to
- use the -o option, to avoid getting the syntax checker
- output mixed with the PostScript code.
-
- -cw program
- Specifies which program the HTML syntax should be
- checked with. The default is to use weblint.
-
- -f font
- The font used for normal text. The default font is n
- (NewCenturySchlbk). Other choices are t (Times), h
- (Helvetica), hn (Helvetica-Narrow), p (Palatino), a
- (AvantGarde) and b (Bookman). New fonts can easily be
- added.
-
- -F Draw a frame around the text on each page. The default
- is to not draw a frame.
-
- -hn scalefactor
- Scale the text in headers of level n (1..6) with a fac-
- tor scalefactor. The default is 1.
-
- -im text
- Specifies which text should be written as a replacement
- for in-line images, when the <IMG> tag has no ALT
- attribute. The default text is "[IMAGE]".
-
- -L Generate code for printing in landscape mode. The
- default is portrait mode.
-
- -l length
- The maximum length of the text on each page in centime-
- ters. The default is 23 cm in portrait mode, 15 cm in
- landscape mode.
-
- -LM size
- The size of the left margin in centimeters. The default
- is 2.5 cm.
-
- -n Insert page numbers. The default is to not number the
- pages.
-
- -o file
- Write the PostScript code to file. The default is to
- write to standard output.
-
- -p scalefactor
- Scale preformatted text with a factor scalefactor. The
- default is 1.
-
- -PS size
- The vertical size in centimeters of the paper the docu-
- ment will be printed on. You may also give the names A4
- (29.7 cm) or US (27.9 cm). The default size is A4.
-
- -s scalefactor
- Scale the entire document with a factor scalefactor.
- The default is 1.

- Possible choices are n (normal), b (bold), i (italic),
- bi (bold italic), f (fixed), fb (fixed bold), fi (fixed
- italic) and fbi (fixed bold italic). The default is b
- for all header levels.
-
- -TM size
- The size of the top margin in centimeters. The default
- is 3 cm. Note: To get the size of the top margin
- correct (when printing in portrait mode on other than
- the A4 paper size), you must also give the -PS option.

- -u Do not underline anchor text. The default is to under-
- line anchor text.
