Overview
Reads a Group 3 fax file (raw or digifax) as input. If no filename is given, stdin is used. Produces a printable HP-PCL file as output.
Options
-
-kludge -
Tells g3tolj to skip the first lines for synchronisation.
-
-reversebits -
Tells g3tolj to interpret bits least-significant first, instead of the default most-significant first. Apparently some fax modems do it one way and others do it the other way. If you get a whole bunch of "invalid code" messages, try using this flag.
-
-scale N -
Scale the output to match the printer resolution and paper size, the default of 1.40 will do in most cases.
-
-aspect N -
Scale the output to match the printer resolution and paper size, the default of 1.0 will do for high resolution faxes, 2.0 will do for low resolution faxes.
-
-resolution 75|100|150|300 -
Selects print resolution. The default is 300.
-
-compress 0|1|2 -
Selects compression method for the print output. 0 = none, 1 = rll, 2 = tiff. The default is 0.
-
-pagelength N -
Defines the pagelength in inches, the default is 10.95. After this length a pagebreak is generated and the last part of the previous page is duplicated on the next page
-
-duplength N -
Defines the length in inches that will be duplicated after a pagebreak, The default is 0.7.
