+.SH NAME
+postbgi \- PostScript translator for BGI (Basic Graphical Instructions) files
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B postbgi
+[ options ] [ files ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Postbgi
+translates BGI (Basic Graphical Instructions)
+.I files
+into PostScript and writes the results on the
+standard output.
+If no
+.I files
+are specified, or if \- is one of the input
+.I files,
+the standard input is read.
+The following
+.I options
+are understood:
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-c num
+Print
+.I num
+copies of each page.
+By default only one copy is printed.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-f name
+Print text using font
+.I name.
+Any PostScript font can be used,
+although the best results will only be
+obtained with constant width fonts.
+The default font is Courier.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-m num
+Magnify each logical page by the factor
+.I num.
+Pages are scaled uniformly about the origin,
+which by default is located at the center of
+each page.
+The default magnification is 1.0.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-n num
+Print
+.I num
+logical pages on each piece of paper,
+where
+.I num
+can be any positive integer.
+By default
+.I num
+is set to 1.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-o list
+Print pages whose numbers are given in the comma-separated
+.IR list .
+The list contains single numbers
+.I N
+and ranges
+.IB N1 \- N2.
+A missing 
+.I N1
+means the lowest numbered page, a missing
+.I N2
+means the highest.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-p mode
+Print
+.I files
+in either
+.B portrait
+or
+.B landscape
+.I mode.
+Only the first character of
+.I mode
+is significant.
+The default
+.I mode
+is portrait.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-w num
+Set the line width used for graphics to
+.I num
+points, where a point is approximately 1/72
+of an inch.
+By default
+.I num
+is set to 0.0 points, which forces lines to be
+one pixel wide.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-x num
+Translate the origin
+.I num
+inches along the positive x axis.
+The default
+coordinate system has the origin fixed at the
+center of the page, with positive
+x to the right and positive y up the page.
+Positive
+.I num
+moves everything right.
+The default offset is 0 inches.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-y num
+Translate the origin
+.I num
+inches along the positive y axis.
+Positive
+.I num
+moves everything up the page.
+The default offset is 0 inches.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-A file
+Append a simple accounting record to
+.I file
+after all the input
+.I files
+have been successfully translated.
+By default no accounting data is produced.
+.TP 1.0i
+.BI \-L file
+Use
+.I file
+as the PostScript prologue,
+which by default is /usr/lib/postscript/postbgi.ps.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+0 exit status is returned if
+.I files
+were successfully processed.
+.SH BUGS
+The default line width is too small for 'write to white'
+print engines, like the one used by the PS-2400.
+.SH FILES
+/usr/lib/postscript/postbgi.ps
