vmi=vmotion-index Specify the vertical motion index value which determines the height of a
row. The unit of the index is 1/48 inch. This is equivalent to 48/line-per-
inch.
vprint Specify vertical printing mode for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean multibyte
characters. When this option is included, multibyte characters are printed
vertically in a rotated orientation; however, any single byte characters in
the text are still printed horizontally (text printing only). If the TrueType
fonts used support vertical variants of some of full width characters, those
characters will be used in vertical printing mode.
widenchar|wc Specify that narrow TrueType glyphs should be widened (doubled in width)
when they are displayed as a wide character (opposite of
nowc).
width=width Specify the width of page in columns for text printing.
[no]wrap Wrap or do not wrap long lines when printing a text file (default is
nowrap).
keyword=option If the given keyword does not match any of the predefined keyword-option
pairs above, it is treated as the selection of the given PPD option key as the
value of the PPD main keyword (equivalent to
opt=keyword:option).
option If the option name does not match any of the predefined option names
above, it is treated as follows (in descending order):
1. A setup macro name
2. A locale name or locale alias
3. A page size name, for example A4.
4. An input tray name
5. A codeset or Unicode transformation format name
6. A font or typeface name
If it matches none of the above, the option will be ignored.
Additional PPD dependent keyword/option pairs and predefined setup macros and aliases may be available
for use. Please run the configured model script directly without any option to see what additional options
are available.
Options Interdependency
Many of the supported -o options are inter-dependent. In other words, specifying one option will affect the
setting of the others. For example, the following option values are inter-related by the formulas:
lines-per-inch= lines/
(page-height - top-margin - bottom-margin)
char-per-inch
= width/(page-width - left-margin - right-margin)
A latter option may invalidate a former related option. For example, a letter size page (11in x 8.5in) with a
page margin of 0.5in and a lines-per-inch of 6 will print 60 lines per page. Specifying 66 as the number of
lines per page (lines) will then force the lines-per-inch to 6.6.
The following three groups of character spacing options are inter-related in descending priority order:
1.
hmi, vmi
2. cpi, lpi
3. width, lines
When conflicting hmi and cpi options are specified, there are two possibilities:
1. If the hmi option specifies character spacing wider than the cpi option, extra space is padded
between characters to satisfy both options.
2. If the hmi option specifies character spacing narrower than the cpi option, the print filter will try
to accommodate or adjust if the difference is only minor. In this situation, the individual charac-
ters will be printed closer together (more packed) than their natural character-to-character separa-
tion. Otherwise, the hmi option overrides the cpi option and the character width will be reduced
accordingly.
Similar results occur for conflicting vmi and lpi options.
