.TH PS2PS 1 "21 February 2000" 6.0 "Ghostscript Tools" \" -*- nroff -*-
.SH NAME
ps2ps \- Ghostscript PostScript "distiller"
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBps2ps\fR [ \fIoptions\fR ] \fIinput.ps output.ps\fR
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBps2ps\fR uses \fIgs\fR(1) to convert \fBPostScript\fR(tm) file
"input.ps" to simpler and (usually) faster PostScript in
"output.ps".  Normally the output is allowed to use PostScript Level 2
constructs, but the \fB\-dLanguageLevel=1\fR option restricts the output to
Level 1.
.PP
Use \fBps2ps\fR only for ordinary PostScript (PS) files; for
Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files, use \fBeps2eps\fR.
.SH FILES
Run "\fBgs -h\fR" to find the location of Ghostscript documentation on your
system, from which you can get more details.
.SH VERSION
This document was last revised for Ghostscript version 6.01.
