Dvips
*****

  This manual documents Dvips, a program to translate a DVI file into
PostScript.  It corresponds to version 5.66a (February 1997) of the
Dvipsk distribution, a slightly modified variant of the original Dvips
program with path searching rules consistent with the Web2c TeX
implementation, the GNU font utilities, Xdvik, and Dviljk.
