NAME

       fixnt - Filter for the Windows NT postscript printer driver.

SYNOPSIS

       fixnt < BADFILE.ps > GOODFILE.ps

DESCRIPTION

       The  Windows  NT  postscript  driver  has  a  tendency  to  make broken
       postscript files, that are  incompatible  with  psutils.   fixnt  is  a
       filter that fixes these problems, allowing the use of psnup(1).

       The  filter  takes  the  broken postscript file on stdin, and outputs a
       fixed postscript file on stdout.  It has no other form  for  invocation
       and takes no options on the command-line.

OPTIONS

       fixnt  takes no options.

BUGS

       fixnt  does  not  check  for NTPSOct94.  For a workaround, use a sed(1)
       command to replace ’NTPSOct94’ with ’NTPSOct95’, like so:
              sed ’s/NTPSOct94/NTPSOct95/g’
       This is particularly important for Windows NT 3.5 users.
