-<p><i>fax2ps</i> reads one or more <small>TIFF</small>
-facsimile image files and prints a compressed form of
-PostScript on the standard output that is suitable for
-printing.</p>
-<!-- INDENTATION -->
-<p>By default, each page is scaled to reflect the image
-dimensions and resolutions stored in the file. The
-<b>&minus;x</b> and <b>&minus;y</b> options can be used to
-specify the horizontal and vertical image resolutions
-(lines/inch), respectively. If the <b>&minus;S</b> option is
-specified, each page is scaled to fill an output page. The
-default output page is 8.5 by 11 inches. Alternate page
-dimensions can be specified in inches with the
-<b>&minus;W</b> and <b>&minus;H</b> options.</p>
-<!-- INDENTATION -->
-<p>By default <i>fax2ps</i> generates PostScript for all
-pages in the file. The <b>&minus;p</b> option can be used to
-select one or more pages from a multi-page document.</p>
-<!-- INDENTATION -->
-<p><i>fax2ps</i> generates a compressed form of PostScript
-that is optimized for sending pages of text to a PostScript
-printer attached to a host through a low-speed link (such as
-a serial line). Each output page is filled with white and
-then only the black areas are drawn. The PostScript
-specification of the black drawing operations is optimized
-by using a special font that encodes the move-draw
-operations required to fill the black regions on the page.
-This compression scheme typically results in a substantially
-reduced PostScript description, relative to the
-straightforward imaging of the page with a PostScript
-<i>image</i> operator. This algorithm can, however, be
-ineffective for continuous-tone and white-on-black images.
-For these images, it sometimes is more efficient to send the
-raster bitmap image directly; see <b>tiff2ps</b>(1).</p>
