NAME

       psresize - rescales and centers a document for new output paper size

SYNOPSIS

       psresize  [ -wwidth ] [ -hheight ] [ -ppaper ] [ -Wwidth ] [ -Hheight ]
       [ -Ppaper ] [ -q ] [ infile [ outfile ] ]

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
       a0, a1,  a2,  a3,  a4,  a5,  b5,  letter,  legal,  tabloid,  statement,
       executive,  folio,  quarto  or 10x14.  The default output paper size is
       a4.

       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.  The default input paper size is a4.

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

EXAMPLES

       The  following  command  can  be  used to convert a document on A4 size
       paper to letter size paper:

       psresize -PA4 -pletter in.ps out.ps
