How are Windows users supposed to print the PostScript refcards?

How are Windows users supposed to print the PostScript refcards?

[Reiner Steib]

Hi,

I wonder how users on Windows are supposed to print etc/refcard.ps and
the other refcards.  By default Windows doesn't assign any program to
"*.ps" so I guess most user won't know how to print them.

If it's possible to print them on Windows, it should be documented
(e.g. in etc/README).  Else, we could consider to include PDF files in
the Windows distribution.

Bye, Reiner.

Regardless of Windows, I agree that PDF would be preferable.
But let's not add the "you need acrocrap breeder to read this", of course.
There are plenty of Free pdf viewers around.

If the printer supports PostScript, then by just copying them to the
printer (via any usual Windows UI, e.g. drag-n-drop, or print.exe, or
anything else).

If the printer do not support PostScript, then with Ghostscript, as on
any other platform.

Does any other platform assign any program to *.ps?

    But let's not add the "you need acrocrap breeder to read this", of course.

We never recommend a non-free program, and of course that includes
acrocrap.

I believe that Mac by default assigns "Preview".  Preview will call a
PS to PDF utility, then view the PDF file.

And under the GNU/Linux I use (Mandriva), PostScript files are opened
by Evince by default.

I'd expect that the usual Windows UI to print files is to double click
on the file in explorer and print via File/Print in the associated
application or use Print from the context menu (in explorer).

print.exe worked for me when I tried (but I was afraid to get 2500
lines of PostScript code instead of a two page refcard).

Fine with me.  Providing PDFs for every PS in etc would need ~ 1MB, so
I think it's not a big deal.  I'd suggest to do it for already for
22.2.

Objections?

Might work, I didn't try.

How about deleting the postscript files and replacing them with the
pdfs?  After all, a few MB here, a few MB there, and soon we're
talking about real memory.

Note sure which part of your answer was ironic :-) Seriously, adding PDF
is an idea we can consider ; AFAIK /normal/ people tend to use PDF over
PS. Is deleting PS files such a harm ?

Well, with your proposition, we'd use less MB:

$ cd ~/src/emacs/etc
$ for f (*.ps) ps2pdf $f
$ du -hc *.ps | tail -n1
3.0M    total
$ du -hc *.pdf | tail -n1
1.2M    total

That's like asking "Is deleting .o files so harmful?" :-)  The PS
files are intermediate files, not even readable as source except to
dvips developers IMO.  PDF is superior in every way, including the
fact that some versions of Adobe Acrobat crash when faced with
Adobe-standard-conforming PDF files produced by some versions of
Ghostscript. :-)

ISTR that bug was restricted to certain Japanese fonts and Acrobat 5
on Windows, or so, so probably it won't bother anybody today.

Nah, not quite.  PS files are directly viewable, directly printable, and
a near-raw format, whereas .o files are just not executable as-is.
There are people in my lab that still tweak their resulting .ps files to
add more room here and there.

They are not intermediate files, they are one kind of final files.

> PDF is superior in every way

I do agree, but we don't use any feature of the PDF format in the
refcards, so the point is not here ;-)

Not on an out-of-the-box Mac with a directly connected non-PS printer,
they're not.  Obviously the same is true of Windows, or this thread

Ok, you're right. I'm not sure what point you want to make though : even
on a Linux you can have neither a PS viewer nor a PDF one.  I was just
saying that PS /can be/ directly viewed and that PS is the default
format for a lot of printer, so there's no real point abandoning it.

An out-of-the-box Windows can't read PDF, AFAIK. And BTW, when you do a
« Print into a file » on Windows, you get PS files.

But we're arguing considerably about nothing and making noise. I think
the only thing we have to wait for is a decision, for example by RMS.

Well, on Mac OSX you can view it in Preview, which converts it to PDF.  I 
guess you can print it also, but I'm not sure.

Still not sure if it's worth arguing, but indeed, apple.com says :

Only if the corresponding printer is a PS printer.  For a PCL printer

   guess you can print it also, but I'm not sure.

Macos natively support both Postscript and PDF. The graphics library
used by all the Macos application is PDF-based (the source of all the
graphics on screen is PDF). Before Macos 10, the graphics library used
Postscript.

I think adding *.pdf is fine (only ~ 1 MB) for a real benefit of many
users.  I didn't suggest to remove the PS versions, because on typical
GNU/Linux systems, the PDF would be converted to PS during the
printing process (e.g. with CUPS filters) so I'd rather keep the PS
files.  If size disk space is important, we may gzip the PS files like
we do for *.el.  Older Unix or GNU/Linux systems might not even be
able to print PDF while they can handle PS fine.

There's no reason to convert ps-prin0.ps and ps-prin1.ps to PDF.  And
we surely should not delete these two PS files.

PS files can be generated just fine on those older systems.  And given that
on OT1H xpdf has worked fine for many years now, and OTOH PDFs are
sufficiently widespread that anyone whose system can't print PDFs will have
encountered many other more serious problems, I think that removing PS is
very reasonable.

PDF can be rendered faster than PS, is generally safer than PS (by virtue
of not being Turing-complete), is generally smaller as well, and can be
handled (e.g. searched) more easily.

The only downside I know of PDFs is that the tools to manipulate them
(e.g. put them in 2up or copy/paste some part of it) are rather lacking
in the Free Software world.

To make it more clear: I just didn't propose to remove the PS files,
but I won't object.

Some minor remarks...

> PS files can be generated just fine on those older systems.

Some refcards need special TeX variants (cs-refcard, pl-refcard).  But
if the user is interested in those refcard, probably these TeX
variants are available, too.

The pdfpages for pdfLaTeX does it.  But it's not a simple as running
psnup.

Copy/paste doesn't work worse than for PS.

This is one point we all agree on, so let's do it.

I do agree.  And I think there's no point saying on the one side ``Hey,
buddy, you can use Emacs on your good'ol MO-5 and your toaster !'' and on
the other side ``What ? You don't have a PDF viewer or converter ? Go
die !''.

Well, it means that we have to modify each .tex file to use proper
\pdfpagewidth and \pdfpageheight (surrounded by tests for « Are we
outputing it PDF »), or use the package geometry for the few LaTeX
files.  It's another task, for sure.

I'd give it a try if the final decision is to remove the .ps files.

I was proposing the previous patch because I'd prefer keep them.

Are we waiting for the poll to end or for a decision from RMS ?

Re: How are Windows users supposed to print the PostScript refcards?

[Richard Stallman]

Sorry, I have no opinion about this.
I don't know a lot about support for PS or PDF on various systems.

I suggest this heuristic: if neither one of the formats has a clear
advantage in portability, pick the one that is most convenient on
GNU/Linux.

How about adding PDF versions now for 22.2+ and the trunk now and
decide about removing PS before releasing Emacs 23.1 (adding a note in
the Makefile or FOR-RELEASE?

This is fine with me.  I think the NEWS file should contain a word
like :

** PDF files for the refcards and other cards are now shipped by
   default.  We plan to remove the PS files in a near future (23.1).

So nobody objected. If nobody does before EOD (End Of Day), I'll install
the Makefile change.

BTW, I tried to do the change to the .tex files to use pdftex (for the
future), with an annex file like the following :

\input ifpdf.sty

\ifpdf
  \def\pdflayout=(#1#2){
    \if0#1 % A4
      \pdfpagewidth=21cm
      \pdfpageheight=29.7cm
    \else\if1#1 % Letter
      \pdfpagewidth=8.5in
      \pdfpageheight=11in
    \fi\fi
    \if l#2 % Landscape
      \edef\oldwidth{\the\pdfpagewidth}
      \pdfpagewidth=\pdfpageheight
      \pdfpageheight=\oldwidth
    \fi
  }
\else
  \def\pdflayout=(#1#2){}
\fi


but I was unable to find the `csplain' binary file, so I couldn't test
my try for all .tex files.  Does someone have this file and know if
there's a cspdfplain ?

According to
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/csplain.html,
csplain is included in both TeX Live and teTeX.

Under Debian, you need the texlive-lang-czechslovak package, in which
there is a symlink /usr/bin/pdfcsplain -> pdftex.

"pdfcsplain sk-refcard" produces DVI output on my system (openSUSE
10.2, teTeX 3.0).  pdfcsplain is a shell script which calls "pdfetex
-progname=pdfcsplain -default-translate-file=il2-cs" here.

For PDF, "pdfcsplain '\pdfoutput=1\input sk-refcard'" or "csplain
'\pdfoutput=1\input sk-refcard'" work here.

WRT to Michaël's previous patch...

-refcards: refcard.ps cs-refcard.ps de-refcard.ps fr-refcard.ps \
+REFCARDS = refcard.ps cs-refcard.ps de-refcard.ps fr-refcard.ps \
           pl-refcard.ps pt-br-refcard.ps ru-refcard.ps sk-refcard.ps
+refcards: ${REFCARDS} ${REFCARDS:.ps=.pdf}

... I'd suggest "refcards_ps" and "refcards_pdf" instead of "refcards"
and "REFCARDS".

Bye, Reiner.

Personally I think that's a waste of time and disk space. I would just
change them all to pdf now and be done with it. Some of them never had
any ps version in CVS at all, just the tex, and no-one ever
complained, AFAIK. pdf is better for Windows and Mac (AFAIK), and any
sane GNU/Linux system can handle pdf or tex just fine.

I think in many cases PDFs are better supported than postscript on
GNU/Linux too.  Postscript is a lovely and elegant language, but it's
pretty clear where the development effort is going these days...

It seems that I'm the only one here willing to keep the PS files :-)
Well, I had a longish discussion with some of my geek friends, and they
all agreed that PS should be removed, the sooner the better.

Thus, well, so be it.

The patch is somewhat longer, but it's the cost to pay to have a shiny
PDF-compliant distribution, I think.
