## DESCRIPTION

Temporarily attaches the Postscript display manager and outputs the current MGED display to the specified output_file in PostScript format. The -f option allows the font to be user- specified. The -t option allows the user to provide a title (the default is No Title). The -c option allows the user to specify the creator of the file (the default is LIBDM dm-ps). The s specifies the size of the drawing in inches. The l specifies the width of the lines drawn.

## EXAMPLES

The first example shows the use of the `postscript` command to place a PostScript version of the current MGED display in a specified file and give it a particular title. The second example is much like the first except that a line width is specified and the title and output file names are different.
