DESCRIPTION
Enscript converts text files to PostScript and spools gen-
erated PostScript output to the specified printer or leaves
it to file. If no input files are given, enscript processes
standard input. Enscript can be extended to handle dif-
ferent output media and it has many options which can be
used to customize printouts.
OPTIONS
-# num Print num copies of each page.
-1, -2, --columns=num
Specify how many columns each page have. With long
option --columns=num you can specify more than 2
columns per page.
-a pages, --pages=pages
Specify which pages are printed. Page specification
pages can be given in following formats:
begin-end
print pages from begin to end
-end print pages from 0 to end
begin- print pages from begin to end
page print page page
odd print odd pages
even print even pages
-A align, --file-align=align
Align separate input files to even align page count.
This is handy for two-side and 2-up printings
(--file-align=2).
-b header, --header=header
Use text header as a page header. The default page
header is constructed from file's name and last
modification time.
The header string header can contain the same for-
matting escapes which can be specified for the %For-
mat directives in the user defined fancy headers.
For example, the following option prints the file
name, current data and page numbers:
enscript --header='$n %W Page $% of $=' *.c
The header string can also contain left, center and
right justified fields which are separated with the
'|' character:
enscript --header='$n|%W|Page $% of $=' *.c
now the file name is printed left justified, the
date is centered to the header and the page numbers
are printed right justified.
-B, --no-header
Do not print page headers.
-c, --truncate-lines
Cut lines that are too long. As a default, enscript
wraps long lines so no information is lost.
See also option --slice which can be used to slice
long lines to separate pages.
-C[start_line], --line-numbers[=start_line]
Precede each line with its line number. Optional
argument start_line specifies the number of the
first line in the input. The number of the first
line defaults to 1.
-d name Spool output to the printer name.
-D key[:value], --setpagedevice=key[:value]
Pass a page device definition to the generated
PostScript output. If no value is given, key key is
removed from definitions.
For example, command
enscript -DDuplex:true foo.txt
prints file foo.txt in duplex (two side) mode.
Page device operators are implementation dependant
but they are standardized. See section PAGE DEVICE
OPTIONS for details.
-e[char], --escapes[=char]
Enable special escapes interpretation (see section
SPECIAL ESCAPES). If argument char is given, it
changes the escape character to char. The default
escape character is 0.
-E[lang], --pretty-print[=lang]
Pretty-print source code by creating a special input
filter with the states program. Optional argument
lang specifies the language to highlight, as a
default states makes an educated guess.
A description of supported highlighting languages
and file formats can be printed with command:
enscript --help-pretty-print
The highlighting rules are defined in the
`/opt/sfw/share/enscript/enscript.st' file which can
be edited to create highlighting definitions for new
languages.
Note! You can't use your own input filters with this
option.
-f name, --font=name
Select font that is used for body text. The default
body font is Courier10, unless multicolumn landscape
printing mode is selected, in which case the default
is Courier7.
Font specification name contains two parts: font's
name and font's size in points. For example
"Times-Roman12" selects "Times-Roman" font with size
12pt.
The font specification name can also be given in
format `name@ptsize', where font's name and point
size are separated by a `@' character. This allows
enscript to use fonts which contain digit characters
in their names.
The font point size can also be given in format
width/height where width and height specify the
font's size in x- and y-directions. For example
"Times-Roman@10/12" selects 10 points wide and 12
points high "Times-Roman" font.
Note! font sizes can be given as a decimal number.
For example "Times-Roman10.2" selects 10.2pt
"Times-Roman" font.
-F name, --header-font=name
Select font for header texts.
-g, --print-anyway
Print file even if it contains binary data. Option
is here only for compatibility since enscript prints
binary files anyway.
-G, --fancy-header[=name]
Print fancy page header name to top of each page.
Option -G specifies the default fancy header (see
section CONFIGURATION FILES to see how the default
fancy header can be changed).
-h, --no-job-header
Suppress printing of the job header page.
-H[num], --highlight-bars[=num]
Specify how high highlight bars are in lines. If
num is not given, the default value 2 is used. As a
default, no highlight bars are printed.
-i num, --indent=num
Indent every line num characters. The indentation
can also be specified in other units by appending an
unit specifier after the number. Possible unit
specifiers and the corresponding units are:
c centimeters
i inches
l characters (default)
p PostScript points
-I filter, --filter=filter
Read all input files through input filter filter.
Input filter can be a single command or a command
pipeline and it can refer to the name of the input
file with escape `%s'. The name of the input file
stdin can be changed with option `--filter-stdin'.
For example, the following command can be used to
print file `foo.c' by using only upper-case charac-
ters:
enscript --filter="cat %s | tr 'a-z' 'A-Z'" foo.c
And to highlight changes made to files since the
last checkout:
enscript --filter="rcsdiff %s | diffpp %s" -e *.c
Note! To include string "%s" to the filter command,
you must write it as "%%s".
-j, --borders
Print borders around columns.
-J title
An alias for option -t, --title.
-k, --page-prefeed
Enable page prefeed.
-K, --no-page-prefeed
Disable page prefeed (default).
-l, --lineprinter
Emulate lineprinter. This option is a shortcut for
options: --lines-per-page=66, --no-header.
-L num, --lines-per-page=num
Print only num lines per each page.
-m, --mail
Send mail notification to user after print job has
been completed.
-M name, --media=name
Select output media name. Enscript's default output
media is Letter.
-n num, --copies=num
Print num copies of each page.
-N nl, --newline=nl
Select the newline character. Possible values for
nl are: n (unix newline, 0xa hex) and r (mac new-
line, 0xd hex).
-o file An alias for option -p, --output.
-O, --missing-characters
Print a listing of character codes which couldn't be
printed.
-p file, --output=file
Leave output to file file. If file is `-', leave
output to stdout.
-P name, --printer=name
Spool output to the printer name.
-q, --quiet, --silent
Make enscript really quiet. Only fatal error mes-
sages are printed to stderr.
-r, --landscape
Print in landscape mode; rotate page 90 degrees.
-R, --portrait
Print in portrait mode (default).
-s num, --baselineskip=num
Specify the baseline skip in PostScript points.
Number num can be given as a decimal number. When
enscript moves from line to line, current point y
coordinate is moved (font point size + baselineskip)
points down. The default baseline skip is 1.
-S key[:value], --statusdict=key[:value]
Pass a statusdict definition to the generated
PostScript output. If no value is given, key key is
removed from definitions.
Statusdict operators are implementation dependant;
see printer's documentation for details.
For example, command
enscript -Ssetpapertray:1 foo.txt
prints file foo.txt by using paper from the paper
tray 1 (assuming that printer supports paper tray
selection).
-t title, --title=title
Set banner page's job title to title. Option sets
also the name of the input file stdin.
-T num, --tabsize=num
Set tabulator size to num (default is 8).
-u[text], --underlay[=text]
Print string text under every page. Text's proper-
ties can be changed with options --ul-angle,
--ul-font, --ul-gray, --ul-position and --ul-style.
If no text is given, no underlay is printed. This
can be used to remove underlay that was specified
with the `Underlay' configuration file option.
-U num, --nup=num
Print num logical pages on each output page (N-up
printing).
-v, --verbose[=level]
Tell what enscript is doing.
-V, --version

CONFIGURATION FILES
Enscript reads configuration information from following
sources (in this order): command line options, environment
variable ENSCRIPT, user's personal configuration file
($HOME/.enscriptrc), site configuration file
(/opt/sfw/etc/enscriptsite.cfg) and system's global confi-
guration file (/opt/sfw/etc/enscript.cfg).
The configuration files have the following format:
Empty lines and lines starting with `#' are comments.
All other lines are option lines and have format:
OPTION [arguments ...].
Following options can be specified:
AcceptCompositeCharacters: bool
Specify whatever PostScript font's composite charac-
ters are accepted as printable or should they be
considered as non-existent. The default value is
false (0).
AFMPath: path
Specifies search path for the AFM files.
AppendCtrlD: bool
Specify if the Control-D (^D) character should be
appended to the end of the output. The default
value is false (0).
Clean7Bit: bool
Specify how characters greater than 127 are printed.
Value true (1) generates 7-bit clean code by escap-
ing all characters greater than 127 to the
backslash-octal notation (default). Value false (0)
generates 8-bit PostScript code leaving all charac-
ters untouched.
DefaultEncoding: name
Select the default input encoding. Encoding name
name can be one of the values of the -X, --encoding
option.
DefaultFancyHeader: name
Select the default fancy header. Default header is
used when option -G is specified or option
--fancy-header is given without an argument.
System-wide default is `enscript'.
DefaultMedia: name
Select the default output media.
DefaultOutputMethod: method
Select the default target to which generated output
is send. Possible values for method are:
printer send output to printer (default)
stdout send output to stdout
DownloadFont: fontname
Include the font description file of the font
fontname to the generated output.
EscapeChar: num
Specify the escape character for special escapes.
The default value is 0.
FormFeedType: type
Specify what to do when a formfeed character is
encountered from the input. Possible values for
type are:
column move to the beginning of the next column
(default)
page move to the beginning of the next page

Specify whether the PageSize page device setting is
generated to the PostScript output. The default
value is true (1).
HighlightBarGray: gray
Specify the gray level which is used to print
highlight bars.
HighlightBars: num
Specify how high highlight bars are in lines. The
default value is 0 so no highlight bars are printed.

Mark wraped lines in the output with style style.
Possible values for format are the same which can be
given for the --mark-wrapped-lines option.
Media: name width height llx lly urx ury
Add a new output media with name name. Media's phy-
sical dimensions are width and height. Media's
bounding box is specified by points (llx, lly) and
(urx, ury). Enscript prints all graphics inside
media's bounding box.
User can select this media by giving option -M name.

CUSTOMIZATION
Users can create their own fancy headers by creating a
header description file and placing it in a directory which
is in enscript's library path. The name of the header file
must be in format: `headername.hdr'. Header can be selected
by giving option: --fancy-header=headername.
Header description file contains PostScript code that paints
the header. Description file must provide procedure
do_header which is called by enscript at the beginning of
every page.
Header description file contains two parts: comments and
code. Parts are separated by a line containing text:
% -- code follows this line --
Enscript copies only the code part of description file to
the generated PostScript output. The comments part can con-
tain any data, it is not copied. If separator line is miss-
ing, no data is copied to output.
Enscript defines following constants which can be used in
header description files:
d_page_w page width
d_page_h page height
d_header_x header lower left x coordinate
d_header_y header lower left y coordinate
d_header_w header width
d_header_h header height
d_footer_x footer lower left x coordinate
d_footer_y footer lower left y coordinate
d_footer_w footer width
d_footer_h footer height
d_output_w width of the text output area
d_output_h height of the text output area
user_header_p predicate which tells if user has defined
his/her own header string: true/false
user_header_left_str
if user_header_p is true, this is the left
field of the user supplied header string.
user_header_center_str
if user_header_p is true, this is the center
field of the user supplied header string
user_header_right_str
if user_header_p is true, this is the right
field of the user supplied header string
HF standard header font (from -F, --header-font
option). This can be selected simply by
invoking command: `HF setfont'.
pagenum the number of the current page
fname the full name of the printed file
(/foo/bar.c)
fdir the directory part of the file name (/foo)
ftail file name without the directory part (bar.c)
gs_languagelevel
PostScript interpreter's language level
(currently 1 or 2)
You can also use the following special comments to customize
your headers and to specify some extra options. Special
comments are like DSC comments but they start with a single
`%' character; special comments start from the beginning of
the line and they have the following syntax:
%commentname: options
Currently enscript support the following special comments:
%Format: name format
Define a new string constant name according to the
format string format. Format string start from the
first non-space character and it ends to the end of
the line. Format string can contain general `%'
escapes and input file related `$' escapes.
Currently following escapes are supported:
%% character `%'
$$ character `$'
$% current page number
$= number of pages in the current file
$(VAR) value of the environment variable VAR.
%c trailing component of the current working
directory
%C ($C) current time (file modification time) in
`hh:mm:ss' format
%d current working directory
%D ($D) current date (file modification date) in
`yy-mm-dd' format
%D{string} ($D{string})
format string string with the strftime(3)
function. `%D{}' refers to the current date
and `$D{}' to the input file's last modifi-
cation date.
%E ($E) current date (file modification date) in
`yy/mm/dd' format
%F ($F) current date (file modification date) in
`dd.mm.yyyy' format
%H document title
$L number of lines in the current input file.
This is valid only for the toc entries, it
can't be used in header strings.
%m the hostname up to the first `.' character
%M the full hostname
%n the user login name
$n input file name without the directory part
%N the user's pw_gecos field up to the first
`,' character
$N the full input file name
%t ($t) current time (file modification time) in
12-hour am/pm format
%T ($T) current time (file modification time) in
24-hour format `hh:mm'
%* ($*) current time (file modification time) in
24-hour format with seconds `hh:mm:ss'
$v the sequence number of the current input
file
$V the sequence number of the current input
file in the `Table of Contents' format: if
the --toc option is given, escape expands to
`num-'; if the --toc is not given, escape
expands to an empty string.
%W ($W) current date (file modification date) in
`mm/dd/yy' format
All format directives except `$=' can also be given
in format
escape width directive
where width specifies the width of the column to
which the escape is printed. For example, escape
"$5%" will expand to something like " 12". If the
width is negative, the value will be printed left-
justified.
For example, the `emacs.hdr' defines its date string
with the following format comment:
%Format: eurdatestr %E
which expands to:
/eurdatestr (96/01/08) def
%HeaderHeight: height
Allocate height points space for the page header.
The default header height is 36 points.
%FooterHeight: height
Allocate height points space for the page footer.
The default footer height is 0 points.
According to Adobe's Document Structuring Conventions (DSC),
all resources needed by a document must be listed in
document's prolog. Since user's can create their own
headers, enscript don't know what resources those headers
use. That's why all headers must contain a standard DSC
comment that lists all needed resources. For example, used
fonts can be listed with following comment:
%%DocumentNeededResources: font fontname1 fontname2
Comment can be continued to the next line with the standard
continuation comment:
%%+ font fontname3
SPECIAL ESCAPES
Enscript supports special escape sequences which can be used
to add some page formatting commands to ASCII documents. As
a default, special escapes interpretation is off, so all
ASCII files print out as everyone expects. Special escapes
interpretation is activated by giving option -e, --escapes
to enscript.
All special escapes start with the escape character. The
default escape character is ^@ (octal 000); escape character
can be changed with option -e, --escapes. Escape character
is followed by escape's name and optional options and argu-
ments.
Currently enscript supports following escapes:
bggray change the text background color. Escape's syntax
is:
^@bggray{gray}
where gray is the new text background gray value.
The default value is 1.0 (white).
color change the text color. Escape's syntax is:
^@color{red green blue}
where color components red, green and blue are given
as a decimal numbers between 0 and 1.
comment comment the rest of the line including the newline
character. Escape's syntax is:
^@comment text newline_character
escape change the escape character. Escape's syntax is
^@escape{code}
where code is the decimal code of the new escape
character.
epsf inline EPS file to the document. Escape's syntax
is:
^@epsf[options]{filename}
where options is an optional sequence of option
characters and values enclosed with brackets and
filename is the name of the EPS file.
If filename ends to the `|' character, then filename
is assumed to name a command that prints EPS data to
its standard output. In this case, enscript opens a
pipe to the specified command and reads EPS data
from pipe.
Following options can be given for the epsf escape:
c print image centered
r print image right justified
n do not update current point. Following out-
put is printed to that position where the
current point was just before the epsf
escape
nx do not update current point x coordinate
ny do not update current point y coordinate
xnum move image's top left x coordinate num char-
acters from current point x coordinate
(relative position)
xnuma set image's top left x coordinate to column
num (absolute position)
ynum move image's top left y coordinate num lines
from current line (relative position)
ynuma set image's top left y coordinate to line
num (absolute position)
hnum set image's height to num lines
snum scale image with factor num
sxnum scale image in x direction with factor num
synum scale image in y direction with factor num
As a default, all dimensions are given in lines
(vertical) and characters (horizontal). You can
also specify other units by appending an unit
specifier after number. Possible unit specifiers
and the corresponding units are:
c centimeters
i inches
l lines or characters (default)
p PostScript points
For example to print an image one inch high, you can
specify height by following options: h1i (1 inch),
h2.54c (2.54 cm), h72p (72 points).
font select current font. Escape's syntax is:
^@font{fontname}
where fontname is a standard font specification.
Special font specification default can be used to
select the default body font (enscript's default or
the one specified by the command line option -f,
--font).
ps include raw PostScript code to the output. Escape's
syntax is:
^@ps{code}
shade highlight regions of text by changing the text back-
ground color. Escape's syntax is:
^@shade{gray}
where gray is the new text background gray value.
The default value is 1.0 (white) which disables
highlighting.
PAGE DEVICE OPTIONS
Page device is a PostScript level 2 feature that offers an
uniform interface to control printer's output device.
Enscript protects all page device options inside an if block
so they have no effect in level 1 interpreters. Although
all level 2 interpreters support page device, they do not
have to support all page device options. For example some
printers can print in duplex mode and some can not. Refer
to the documentation of your printer for supported options.
Here are some usable page device options which can be
selected with the -D, --setpagedevice option. For a com-
plete listing, see PostScript Language Reference Manual:
section 4.11 Device Setup.
Collate boolean
how output is organized when printing multiple
copies
Duplex boolean
duplex (two side) printing
ManualFeed boolean
manual feed paper tray
OutputFaceUp boolean
print output `face up' or `face down'
Tumble boolean
how opposite sides are positioned in duplex printing
PRINTING EXAMPLES
Following printing examples assume that enscript uses the
default configuration. If default actions have been changed
from the configuration files, some examples will behave dif-
ferently.
enscript foo.txt
Print file foo.txt to the default printer.
enscript -Possu foo.txt
Print file foo.txt to printer ossu.
enscript -pfoo.ps foo.txt
Print file foo.txt, but leave PostScript output to
file foo.ps.
enscript -2 foo.txt
Print file foo.txt to two columns.
enscript -2r foo.txt
Print file to two columns and rotate output 90
degrees (landscape).
enscript -DDuplex:true foo.txt
Print file in duplex (two side) mode (printer depen-
dant).
enscript -G2rE -U2 foo.c
My default code printing command: gaudy header, two
columns, landscape, code highlighting, 2-up print-
ing.
enscript -E --color -Whtml --toc -pfoo.html *.h *.c
A nice HTML report of your project's C source files.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The environment variable ENSCRIPT can be used to pass
default options for enscript. For example, to select the
default body font to be Times-Roman 7pt, set the following
value to the ENSCRIPT environment variable:
-fTimes-Roman7
The value of the ENSCRIPT variable is processed before the
command line options, so command line options can be used to
overwrite these defaults.
Variable ENSCRIPT_LIBRARY specifies the enscript's library
directory. It can be used to overwrite the build-in default
`/opt/sfw/share/enscript'.
RETURN VALUE
Enscript returns value 1 to the shell if any errors were
encountered. On successfull termination, the return code is
constucted from the following flags:
0 no errors or warnings
2 some lines were truncated or wrapped
4 some characters were missing from the used fonts
8 some characters were unprintable
