-# num  Print num copies of each page.

-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9, --columns=num
        Specify how many columns each page have.  With the long option --columns=num you can specify more
        than 9 columns per page.

-a pages, --pages=pages
        Specify  which  pages  are  printed.   The page specification pages can be given in the following
        formats:

        begin-end
                print pages from begin to end

-end    print pages from 0 to end

begin-  print pages from begin to end

page    print page page

odd     print odd pages

even    print even pages

-A align, --file-align=align
        Align separate input files to even align page count.  This option is useful in two-side and  2-up
        printings (--file-align=2).

-b header, --header=header
        Use  the  text  header as a page header.  The default page header is constructed from the name of
        the file and from its last modification time.

        The header string header can contain the same formatting escapes which can be specified  for  the
        %Format  directives  in the user defined fancy headers.  For example, the following option prints
        the file name, current date and page numbers:

-B, --no-header
        Do not print page headers.

-c, --truncate-lines
        Cut lines that are too long for the page.  As a default, enscript wraps long lines  to  the  next
        line so no information is lost.

        You can also use the --slice option which slices long lines to separate pages.

-C[start_line], --line-numbers[=start_line]
        Precede each line with its line number.  The optional argument start_line specifies the number of
        the first line in the input.  The number of the first line defaults to 1.

-d name Spool output to the printer name.

-D key[:value], --setpagedevice=key[:value]
        Pass a page device definition to the generated PostScript output.  If no value is given, the  key
        key is removed from the definitions.

        For example, the command

        enscript -DDuplex:true foo.txt

        prints file foo.txt in duplex (two side) mode.

        Page  device  operators are implementation dependent but they are standardized.  See section PAGE
        DEVICE OPTIONS for the details.

-e[char], --escapes[=char]
        Enable special escapes interpretation (see section SPECIAL ESCAPES).  If  the  argument  char  is
        given, it changes the escape character to char.  The default escape character is 0.

-E[lang], --highlight[=lang]
        Highlight  source  code by creating a special input filter with the states program.  The optional
        argument lang specifies the language to highlight.  As a default the  states  makes  an  educated
        guess.

        You  can  print a short description of the supported highlighting languages and file formats with
        the command:

        enscript --help-highlight

        The highlighting rules are defined in the `/usr/share/enscript/hl/*.st' files which can be edited
        to create highlighting definitions for new languages.

        Note! You can not use your own input filters with this option.

-f name, --font=name
        Select  a  font  that  is  used  for  the  body text.  The default body font is Courier10, unless
        multicolumn landscape printing mode is selected, in which case the default font is Courier7.

        The font specification name contains two parts: the name of the font and its size  in  PostScript
        points.  For example, "Times-Roman12" selects the "Times-Roman" font with size 12pt.

        The font specification name can also be given in format `name@ptsize', where the name of the font
        and its point size are separated by a `@' character.  This allows enscript  to  use  fonts  which
        contain digit characters in their names.

        The  font  point size can also be given in the format width/height where the width and the height
        specify the size of the font in x- and y-directions.  For example, "Times-Roman@10/12" selects  a
        10 points wide and 12 points high "Times-Roman" font.

        You  can  also  give the font sizes as decimal numbers.  For example, "Times-Roman10.2" selects a
        10.2pt "Times-Roman" font.

-F name, --header-font=name
        Select a font for the header texts.

-g, --print-anyway
        Print a file even if it contains binary data.  The option is implemented only  for  compatibility
        purposes.  Enscript prints binary files anyway regardless of the option.

-G, --fancy-header[=name]
        Print  a  fancy  page  header  name to the top of each page.  The option -G specifies the default
        fancy header.  See section CONFIGURATION FILES to  see  how  the  default  fancy  header  can  be
        changed.

-h, --no-job-header
        Suppress printing of the job header page.

-H[num], --highlight-bars[=num]
        Specify  how  high the highlight bars are in lines.  If the num is not given, the default value 2
        is used.  As a default, no highlight bars are printed.

-i num, --indent=num
        Indent every line num characters.  The indentation can  also  be  specified  in  other  units  by
        appending an unit specifier after the number.  The possible unit specifiers and the corresponding
        units are:

        c       centimeters

        i       inches

        l       characters (default)

        p       PostScript points

-I filter, --filter=filter
        Read all input files through an input filter filter.  The input filter can be a single command or
        a  command  pipeline.   The  filter can refer to the name of the input file with the escape `%s'.
        The name of the standard input can be changed with the option `--filter-stdin'.

        For example, the following command prints the file `foo.c' by using only upper-case characters:

-j, --borders
        Print borders around columns.

-J title
        An alias for the option -t, --title.

-k, --page-prefeed
        Enable page prefeed.

-K, --no-page-prefeed
        Disable page prefeed (default).

-l, --lineprinter
        Emulate lineprinter.  This  option  is  a  shortcut  for  the  options  --lines-per-page=66,  and
        --no-header.

-L num, --lines-per-page=num
        Print  only num lines for each page.  As a default, the number of lines per page is computed from
        the height of the page and from the size of the font.

-m, --mail
        Send a mail notification to user after the print job has been completed.

-M name, --media=name
        Select an output media name.  Enscript's default output media is  determined  from  libpaper  and
        falls back to A4.

-n num, --copies=num
        Print num copies of each page.

-N nl, --newline=nl
        Select  the  newline  character.  The possible values for nl are: n (unix newline, 0xa hex) and r
        (mac newline, 0xd hex).

-o file An alias for the option -p, --output.

-O, --missing-characters
        Print a listing of character codes which couldn't be printed.

-p file, --output=file
        Leave the output to file file.  If the file is `-', enscript sends the  output  to  the  standard
        output stdout.

-P name, --printer=name
        Spool the output to the printer name.

-q, --quiet, --silent
        Make enscript really quiet.  Only fatal error messages are printed to stderr.

-r, --landscape
        Print in the landscape mode; rotate page 90 degrees.

-R, --portrait
        Print in the portrait mode (default).

-s num, --baselineskip=num
        Specify the baseline skip in PostScript points.  The number num can be given as a decimal number.
        When enscript moves from line to line, the current point y coordinate is moved (font point size +
        baselineskip) points down.  The default baseline skip is 1.

-S key[:value], --statusdict=key[:value]
        Pass  a  statusdict definition to the generated PostScript output.  If no value is given, the key
        key is removed from the definitions.

        The statusdict operators are implementation dependent; see the printer's  documentation  for  the
        details.

        For example, the command

        enscript -Ssetpapertray:1 foo.txt

        prints  the file foo.txt by using paper from the paper tray 1 (assuming that the printer supports
        paper tray selection).

-t title, --title=title
        Set banner page's job title to title.  The option sets also the name of the input file stdin.

-T num, --tabsize=num
        Set the tabulator size to num characters.  The default is 8.

-u[text], --underlay[=text]
        Print the string text under every page.  The properties of the  text  can  be  changed  with  the
        options --ul-angle, --ul-font, --ul-gray, --ul-position, and --ul-style.

        If  no  text  is given, the underlay is not printed.  This can be used to remove an underlay text
        that was specified with the `Underlay' configuration file option.

-U num, --nup=num
        Print num logical pages on each output page (N-up printing).  The values num must be a  power  of
        2.

-v, --verbose[=level]
        Tell what enscript is doing.

-V, --version
        Print enscript version information and exit.

-w [lang], --language[=lang]
        Generate output for the language lang.  The possible values for lang are:

-X name, --encoding=name
        Use the input encoding name.  Currently enscript supports the following encodings:

-z, --no-formfeed
        Turn off the form feed character interpretation.

-Z, --pass-through
        Pass  through  all PostScript and PCL files without any modifications.  This allows that enscript
        can be used as a lp filter.

        The PostScript files are recognized by looking up the `%!' magic cookie from the beginning of the
        file. Note! Enscript recognized also the Windoze damaged `^D%!' cookie.

        The PCL files are recognized by looking up the `^[E' or `^[%' magic cookies from the beginning of
        the file.

--color[=bool]
        Use colors in the highlighting outputs.

--download-font=fontname
        Include the font description file (.pfa or .pfb file) of  the  font  fontname  to  the  generated
        output.

--extended-return-values
        Enable  extended  return values.  As a default, enscript returns 1 on error and 0 otherwise.  The
        extended return values give more details about the printing operation.  See  the  section  RETURN
        VALUE for the details.

--filter-stdin=name
        Specify  how  the  stdin is shown to the input filter.  The default value is an empty string ("")
        but some programs require that the stdin is called something else, usually "-".

--footer=footer
        Use the text footer as a page footer.  Otherwise the option works like the --header option

--h-column-height=height
        Set the horizontal column height to be height PostScript points.  The option  sets  the  formfeed
        type to horizontal-columns.

--help  Print a short help message and exit.

--help-highlight
        Describe all supported --highlight languages and file formats.

--highlight-bar-gray=gray
        Specify the gray level which is used in printing the highlight bars.

--list-media
        List the names of all known output media and exit successfully.

--mark-wrapped-lines[=style]
        Mark wrapped lines in the output with the style style.  The possible values for the style are:

        none    do not mark them (default)

        plus    print a plus (+) character to the end of each wrapped line

        box     print a black box to the end of each wrapped line

        arrow   print a small arrow to the end of each wrapped line

--non-printable-format=format
        Specify how the non-printable characters are printed.  The possible values for the format are:

        caret   caret notation: `^@', `^A', `^B', ...

        octal   octal notation: `\000', `\001', `\002', ... (default)

        questionmark
                replace non-printable characters with a question mark `?'

        space   replace non-printable characters with a space ` '

--nup-columnwise
        Change the layout of the sub-pages in the N-up printing from row-wise to columnwise.

--nup-xpad=num
        Set the page x-padding of the n-up printing to num PostScript points.  The default is 10 points.

--nup-ypad=num
        Set the page y-padding of the n-up printing to num PostScript points.  The default is 10 points.

--page-label-format=format
        Set the page label format to format.  The page label format specifies  how  the  labels  for  the
        `%%Page:' PostScript comments are formatted.  The possible values are:

        short   Print the current pagenumber: `%%Page: (1) 1' (default)

        long    Print the current filename and pagenumber: `%%Page: (main.c:  1) 1'

--ps-level=level
        Set  the  PostScript  language  level  that  enscript uses for its output to level.  The possible
        values are 1, and 2.

--printer-options=options
        Pass extra options to the printer command.

--rotate-even-pages
        Rotate each even-numbered page 180 degrees.

--slice=num
        Print the vertical slice num.  The slices are vertical regions  of  input  files.   A  new  slice
        starts  from  the  point  where  the line would otherwise be wrapped to the next line.  The slice
        numbers start from 1.

--style=style
        Set the highlighting style to style.  The possible values are: a2ps, emacs,  emacs_verbose,  ifh,
        and msvc.

--swap-even-page-margins

--toc   Print a table of contents to the end of the output.

--word-wrap
        Wrap long lines from word boundaries.

--ul-angle=angle
        Set  the  angle  of  the  underlay  text  to  angle.   As a default, the angle is atan(-d_page_h,
        d_page_w).

--ul-font=name
        Select a font for the underlay text.  The default underlay font is Times-Roman200.

--ul-gray=num
        Print the underlay text with the gray value num (0 ... 1), the default gray value is .8.

--ul-style=style
