8. Printing and PostScript8.1 Text to PostScript conversionSometimes you have just a plain ASCII KOI8-R text and you want to print
it just to get it on the paper. One of the easiest ways to achieve
that is to use special programs converting text to PostScript.There are a number of programs doing such conversion. I personally
prefer a2ps. Originally developed as a simple text-to-PostScript
converter it became a big and highly configurable program with many
options and allows you to manage various page layouts, syntax
highlighting etc. Another tool (now available as a part of the
GNU project) is enscript.An a2ps converterA text to PostScript converter has been around for a while and is one
of the most versatile printing tools. The author proved to be very
open to suggestions, so since the release 4.9.8 a2ps supports
Cyrillic right off-the-shelf. All you need is a PostScript printer.The command I use is:
a2ps -X koi8r --print-anyway <file>The GNU enscriptThe GNU enscript program is also designed for converting text to
PostScript and it also has a non-ASCII codeset support. It doesn't
have Cyrillic PostScript fonts, but it is very easy to get them, as
will be explained below (thanks to Michael Van Canneyt):Install the newest enscript. As of now, the most recent
release is 1.5. You may either get the one from the GNU FTP archive, or take
an RPM package from the Redhat site.Now, if you are a lucky RedHat Linux user, download and install Cyrillic Textbook font.If you don't use RPM, download a file textbook.tar.gz from
the Cyrillic Software collection on sunsite.unc.edu. Extract it to a directory, where
enscript fonts are located (usually
/usr/share/enscript). Now change to that directory and run
the following command:
mkafmmap *.afmThe setup is finished. Try to print some text in KOI8-R Cyrillic
with the following command:
enscript --font=Textbook8 --encoding=koi8 some.fileIf you want a really quick and dirty solution and you don't care about
the output quality and all you need is just Cyrillic on the paper, try
the rtxt2ps package. It is a very simple no-frills
text-to-PostScript conversion program. The output quality is not very
good (or, to be honest, just bad) but it does it's job.8.2 Text to TeX conversionIf all you need is just to print an ASCII text without any additional
word processing, you may try to use some programs, which would convert
your Cyrillic text to a ready-to-process TeX file. One of the best
programs for such purposes is translit (see section conversion
). In this case, you don't even have to bother about
installing the Cyrillic fonts for TeX, since translit uses a
Washington Cyrillic package, which is included in most TeX
distributions (or am I wrong?)
