NAME
any2ps - Converts a file to mule internal code and then to PostScript formatSYNOPSIS
any2ps [-in coding_system] [m2ps_flags] < infile > outfileFLAGS
-in coding_system Specifies the coding system (in the input file) that needs to be converted to mule *internal* code. By default, the input file is assumed to be in mule *internal* code, which means that code conversion is not done. m2ps_flags Specifies one or more flags passed by any2ps to the m2ps program. Refer to m2ps(1) for a description of these flags.PARAMETERS
infile Specifies the input file to be converted to *internal* code. outfile Specifies the output PostScript file.DESCRIPTION
The any2ps command is an alternative to running the coco and m2ps programs separately. Like the programs that it invokes, any2ps is derived from software supplied by the Free Software Foundation. The any2ps program performs the following operations: 1. Invokes coco to convert the input file from the specified coding system to Mule internal code (called *internal* code) 2. Passes the converted result, along with the specified m2ps flags, to m2ps for processing The m2ps program then generates the PostScript program file to be printed.RELATED INFORMATION
