Hi,
Using lp-book with current CVS checkout to generate a postscript file.
The file prints OK but it contains no %%Pages or %%Page comments so page
movement is disabled in gv.
There appear to be dvips options to turn off structured comments but
none to turn them on. In the dvips documentation I came across:
Using `bop-hook' or `eop-hook' to preserve information across pages
breaks compliance with the Adobe document structuring conventions, so
if you use any such tricks, you may also want to use the `-N' option to
turn off structured comments (such as `%%Page'). Otherwise, programs
that read your file will assume its pages are independent.
Looking in the final ps file I found these macros are indeed used. I
would like to investigate further as I believe a lot of GNU/Linux users
do use gv to preview postscript. Does anyone know the anwers to the
following:
1] Where do they come from? (They are not in the fonts.ps file)
2] Are they used to preserve information across pages?
3] If the answer to [2] is "No", why are structured comments turned off?
4] If the answer to [2] is "Yes", is this really necessary?
5] How have structured comments been turned off? - The documentation
implies you need to use the -N or -K options to do this.
