The rules of substitution described in Table 8–2 are applied in the following
example. The command is used on a document that requires number-up=2
and width=80:
# /usr/pd/bin/trn_textps -N2 -w80
The attributes that are not specified in the print request are not represented
or replaced with default values, while those that are specified are converted
to their substitution equivalents.
In addition, if the document attribute, number-up, has a value of 1, 2, or
4, the filter prints 1 (with margins), 2, or 4 pages per sheet. Note that a
number-up value of 0 or none is valid and suppresses number-up processing.
The document attribute, content-orientation, affects number-up
processing in the placement of the logical pages on the sheet of paper.
