I did not write this code. I brought it into a git repo because it is easier than wget'ting the files every time I need them from the author's page: http://www.eprg.org/pdfcorner/text2pdf/ text2pdf [options] [filename] text2pdf makes a 7-bit clean PDF file (version 1.1) from any input file. It reads from standard input or a named file, and writes the PDF file to standard output. There are various options as follows: -h show this message -f<font> use PostScript <font> (must be in standard 14, default: Courier) -I use ISOLatin1Encoding -s<size> use font at given pointsize (default 10) -v<dist> use given line spacing (default 12 points) -l<lines> lines per page (default 60, determined automatically if unspecified) -c<chars> maximum characters per line (default 80) -t<spaces> spaces per tab character (default 8) -F ignore formfeed characters (^L) -A4 use A4 paper (default Letter) -A3 use A3 paper (default Letter) -x<width> independent paper width in points -y<height> independent paper height in points -2 format in 2 columns -L landscape mode Note that where one variable is implied by two options, the second option takes precedence for that variable. (e.g. -A4 -y500) In landscape mode, page width and height are simply swapped over before formatting, no matter how or when they were defined. text2pdf v1.1 (c) Phil Smith, 1996
