NAME

       fixps - sanitize PostScript files

SYNOPSIS

       fixps [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION

       Try to fix common PostScript problems that break postprocessing.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              display this help and exit

       -v, --version
              display version information and exit

       -q, --quiet
              don't print informational messages

       -o, --output=FILE
              save result in FILE.  If FILE is `-', send to stdout

       -f, --force
              force full rewrite by ghostscript

       -n, --no-fix
              don't fix the FILE, but still honor `-o'

       -c, --check, --dry-run
              don't perform any action

   Fixes:
              - Remove junk before and after PostScript content - Use only Unix end of lines (

       )

              -  Remove  empty  lines  - Fix Apple prologue (fixmacps) - Fix FrameMaker prologue (fixfmps) - Fix
              CorelDraw prologue (fixnt) - Fix Windows NT 3.5/4.0 prologue (fixnt) - Fix Windows 95  prologue  -
              Ensure there is a `%%BeginSetup/%%EndSetup' section - Removes Canvas' extraneaous `%%EndDocument:'
              comments - Split too long lines

       If  the  FILE seems really in a bad state, ghostscript may be used to perform a full rewrite.  The output
       might then be significantly bigger, but much safer.
