- INTRODUCTION
-
- DJDOC8 is a printing program that prints text files on HP Deskjet printers.
- It can print as much as 8 pages on one sheet of paper. It should work OK
- also on HP Deskjet Plus and HP Laserjet type printers (not tested however).
-

- USAGE
-
- The program is executed by the command
- djdoc8 [options] <filename(s)>
-
- The options are explained below. They may be tied together like -cot3 or
- given seperately like -c -o -t3. The filename(s) may include wildcards.
- Without any given options DJDOC8 defaults to as much text it can squeeze
- onto a piece of paper in as little time as possible. If you don't choose
- onesided operation printing will stop at every odd page number to allow
- you to turn the paper upside down in the tray again. If DJDOC8 is
- called without a filename or option it will give you the list of options.
-
- Options:
- -a : American 11" size paper (default A4 size paper)
- -c : print in two long columns (default two rows of two short columns)
- -n : no printing, only counting of pages (useful!)
- -o : onesided printing (default twosided printing)
- -q : near letter quality (default draft quality)
- -s : silent operation (default beep when ready)
- -u : unidirectional printing (default bidirectional printing)
- -l<number> : lines per page (default depends on -a option)
- -p<number> : page number to start (default 1)
- -t<number> : tab expansion factor (default 8)
-
- Enjoy!
