1 LaserWriter 2 Forms The following forms are defined for use with the LaserWriter. Parameters are passed as follows on the print command: /param=(parameter=value,...) Form Parameters HEADERS Print file with filename and page number headers. ncopies: Number of copies. (default: 1) fsize: Font size in points. (default: 10) wide: If true set landscape mode. (default: false) title: If false suppress the page headers. (default: true) ncolumns: Number of columns. (default: 1) linelimit: Max number of lines per page. (default 66) (Under VMS >= 4.4, HEADERS is the default for spooled files) LETTER Same as HEADERS except default title to false. LANDSCAPE Same as LETTER except default wide to true, fsize to 8. 2UP Same as LANDSCAPE except default title to true and ncolumns to 2. PAINT Print a MacPaint image. ncopies: Number of copies. (default: 1) scale: Scale factor. (default: 4, recommended: 1-4) BITIMAGE Print an uncompressed image. ncopies: Number of copies. (default: 1) scale: Scale factor. (default: 1) xsize: Number of pixels in a row. (default: 512) ysize: Number of pixel columns. (default: 512) pxlwid: Number of bits in a pixel, default 1, values: 1,2,4,8 ZETA Print a zeta plot file. ncopies: Number of copies. (default: 1) scale: Scale factor. (default: 1) zFont: false - selects Helvetica font for internal character true - (default) uses Zeta characters 2 Spooling Spooled file names have the following syntax: _FormName._ParameterList where ParameterList is a list of parameters separated by "_". Keywords are separated from their values with "-". Example: $ copy thing.mpt alw:_paint._scale-4_ncopies-5 2 Examples 1. $ PRINT/QUEUE=ALW/FORM=HEADERS/PARAM=(NCOPIES=4,FSIZE=14) STUFF.TXT Prints 4 copies of STUFF.TXT with a font size of 14. 2. $ PRINT/QUEUE=ALW/FORM=POST/NOTE="/debug true def" USER.PS "Prints" (executes) a user's PostScript file. The first line sent to the printer will be "/debug true def". 3. $ FORTRAN /LIST=ALW:_LANDSCAPE TEST.FOR Compile a program, spooling the output to the LaserWriter.
