DESCRIPTION
Psresize
rescales and centres a document on a different size of paper.
The input PostScript file should follow the Adobe Document Structuring
Conventions.
The
-w
option gives the output paper width, and the
-h
option gives the output paper height, normally specified in
cm
or
in
to convert
PostScript's points (1/72 of an inch)
to centimeters or inches.
The
-p
option can be used as an alternative, to set the output paper size to
a3, a4, a5, b5, letter, legal, tabloid, statement, executive, folio, quarto, 10x24
or
_glibc,
where latter one means the format of the current locale. The default
output paper size is
_glibc.
The
-W
option gives the input paper width, and the
-H
option gives the input paper height.
The
-P
option can be used as an alternative, to set the input paper size.

Psresize
normally prints the page numbers of the pages output; the
-q
option suppresses this.
