dvips takes a DVI file file[.dvi] produced by TeX (or by some other
|
||
|
processor such as GFtoDVI) and converts it to PostScript, normally
|
||
|
sending the result directly to the (laser)printer. The DVI file may
|
||
|
be specified without the .dvi extension. Fonts used may either be
|
||
|
resident in the printer or defined as bitmaps in PK files, or a
|
||
|
`virtual' combination of both. If the mktexpk program is installed,
|
||
|
either be resident in the printer or defined as bitmaps in PK files,
|
||
|
or a `virtual' combination of both. If the mktexpk program is
|
||
|
installed, dvips will automatically invoke METAFONT to generate fonts
|
||
|
that don't already exist.
