The vsim.ps include file
The Postscript file that VSIM creates (if you print to a file) includes a file named
vsim.ps that is shipped with ModelSim. The file is "included" in the Postscript
output from the waveform display; it sets the fonts, spacing, and print header and
footer (the font and spacing is based on those used in the Wave window). If you
want to change any of the Postscript defaults, you can do it by making changes in
this file. Note that you should copy the file before making your changes so that
you can save the original.
