DESCRIPTION
     The program html2ps converts  one  or  more  HTML  files  to
     PostScript.  If  no  filename  is  given, html2ps reads from
     standard input. If more than one  file  is  specified,  they
     will be concatenated.
 
     The current version does not  support  in-line  images,  the
     <ISINDEX> tag and <FORM> with associated tags.
 
OPTIONS
     -a   Do not interpret nested highlighting  tags  additively.
          For  example  "<B><I>some  text</I></B>"  will normally
          produce bold italic text.  With the -a option, the text
          will  be italic but not bold (only the innermost tag is
          interpreted).
 
     -C   Check the syntax of the HTML file  (using  an  external
          syntax  checker).  No PostScript code is generated. The
          default is to not make a syntax check.
 
     -c   Like the -C option, but PostScript code  is  also  gen-
          erated.   If  you use this option, you may also have to
          use the -o option, to avoid getting the syntax  checker
          output mixed with the PostScript code.
 
     -cw program
          Specifies which  program  the  HTML  syntax  should  be
          checked with. The default is to use weblint.
 
     -f font
          The font used for normal text. The default  font  is  n
          (NewCenturySchlbk).   Other  choices  are  t (Times), h
          (Helvetica), hn  (Helvetica-Narrow),  p  (Palatino),  a
          (AvantGarde)  and  b (Bookman). New fonts can easily be
          added.
 
     -F   Draw a frame around the text on each page. The  default
          is to not draw a frame.
 
     -hn scalefactor
          Scale the text in headers of level n (1..6) with a fac-
          tor scalefactor. The default is 1.
 
     -im text
          Specifies which text should be written as a replacement
          for  in-line  images,  when  the  <IMG>  tag has no ALT
          attribute. The default text is "[IMAGE]".
 
     -L   Generate code  for  printing  in  landscape  mode.  The
          default is portrait mode.
 
     -l length
          The maximum length of the text on each page in centime-
          ters.  The  default is 23 cm in portrait mode, 15 cm in
          landscape mode.
 
     -LM size
          The size of the left margin in centimeters. The default
          is 2.5 cm.
 
     -n   Insert page numbers. The default is to not  number  the
          pages.
 
     -o file
          Write the PostScript code to file. The  default  is  to
          write to standard output.
 
     -p scalefactor
          Scale preformatted text with a factor scalefactor.  The
          default is 1.
 
     -PS size
          The vertical size in centimeters of the paper the docu-
          ment will be printed on. You may also give the names A4
          (29.7 cm) or US (27.9 cm). The default size is A4.
 
     -s scalefactor
          Scale the entire document with  a  factor  scalefactor.
          The default is 1.
 
     -tn style
          Set the style of the text in headers of level n (1..6).
          Possible  choices are n (normal), b (bold), i (italic),
          bi (bold italic), f (fixed), fb (fixed bold), fi (fixed
          italic)  and  fbi (fixed bold italic). The default is b
          for all header levels.
 
     -TM size
          The size of the top margin in centimeters. The  default
          is  3  cm.  Note:  To  get  the  size of the top margin
          correct (when printing in portrait mode on  other  than
          the A4 paper size), you must also give the -PS option.
 
     -U   Print usage information.
 
     -u   Do not underline anchor text. The default is to  under-
          line anchor text.

          default is 16 cm in portrait mode, 24.5 cm in landscape
          mode.
