Printing with LATEX

  Files created in LATEX may be processed using the command LATEX filename and then dvips  to print or file the output. For file previewing there is an xdvi  preview facility but those with workstations will undoubtedly have local facilities for this operation. Once you have obtained your DVI type files there are several ways to proceed: 
 
 dvips  xx 		 converts to postscript and
                        prints filename xx on default lpr printer.


 dvips -o  xx 		 creates a file called xx.ps, no printing. 
                           Subsequently the xx.ps postscript file


                        		 can be printed with lpr.


 dvips -o  yy xx 		 creates a file in postscript format called yy, 
                              no printing.

For further information in this area you should refer to the CERN guide called 'TEX at CERN' by Michel Goossens, available on self-service in the UCO.
