Here you have the new release of `poster', to scale postscript images to a larger size, and print them on larger media and/or tile them to print on multiple sheets. With respect to the earlier release: - support is added for foreign (Non European A*) media sizes. - options for scaling became more flexible - original restrictions on white margins in your drawing are removed. For a complete explanation see the accompanying manual. This distribution has the following files: ========================================== README (which you are reading now) Makefile (To compile `poster' in UNIX environments) poster.c (The complete source code) poster.1 (A troff-source manual page for online installation in UNIX) manual.ps (A formatted version of poster.1 in postscript) Furthermore for your convenience: poster.tar.gz (The compressed collection of the above 5 files) getopt.c (you normally don't need to fetch this, see below) Here a few words on the installation of `poster': ================================================== The complete program consists of really only one file: `poster.c'. Before starting compilation you might want to take a look on the C sources in `poster.c', where you can set a few options around line 30: Maybe you want to change the `DefaultMedia' and `DefaultImage' from "A4" to better reflect your local situation (such as "Letter"). Media names can be chosen from the `mediatable' further down the code. (Maybe you even want to add new media sizes/names there, you can do that without requiring any other change elsewhere) The `Gv_gs_orientbug 1' disables a feature of this program to ask for landscape (horizontal) previewing of rotated images. Our currently installed combination of ghostview 1.5 with ghostscript 3.33 cannot properly do a landscape viewing of the `poster' output. The problem does not exist in combination with an older ghostscript 2.x, and has the attention of the ghostview authors. If you have a different postscript previewing environment, you might want to remove or comment-out the `#define Gv_gs_orientbug 1' line. You should be able to compile this with any ansi-C compiler in a Posix or Xopen environment. You can probably compile it with a command like: cc -O -o poster poster.c -lm (i.e. compile with optimization, and link with the math library) (Some environments miss the required 'getopt()' call, with the <unistd.h> include file, if your environment supports none of the SVID, XPG or POSIX standards. If you have this problem, you can comment out the '#include <unistd.h>' line in `poster.c', fetch `getopt.c' from the poster directory, and compile and link these two files together.) (Note that this program might trigger a stupid bug in the HPUX 9.? C library, causing the sscanf() call to produce a core dump. For proper operation, DON'T give the `+ESlit' option to the HP cc, or use gcc WITH the `-fwritable-strings' option.) The resulting executable is fully self-contained, and doesn't require you to install other files at `special' places in the OS. For UNIX environments (the primary target for the program) there is a man page available `poster.1', which you can copy to /usr/local/man/man1/ to obtain online manual support for the users. The formatted version of this manual is available as a postscript file `manual.ps', such that people who don't know how to format unix man pages, still have documentation to read and print. Success!
