Hi folks.
I like to write my letters using jstar and then print them
like so:
pr -o4 -t myfile | lpr
After I see the pretty print I can do w/ libreoffice the plain old
10 pitch lineprinter font is kind of clunky.
I'd really like to change it to 12 pitch at the least. I'm a long time
WordStar devotee and want to stick w/ good old jstar.

The program you need to do simple formatting in PostScript before
handing the file to CUPS is the "enscript" program. Simple and well
documented.
Ah, good. I'll read up on this, too. Thank-you.
