Sets text in two columns. The default is one
column.
Prints four half-size pages per sheet (in other
words, 4-up).
Identifies the beginning-of-page module. You may
create a PostScript module which will be executed
before each page is formatted. Because of
PostScript's opaque paint imaging model, marks
laid down by this module may be overwritten by the
page. A possible use might be to print
"CONFIDENTIAL" or "DRAFT" in grey letters
across each page.

page is printed at this distance from the bottom of
the page. The default is 0.5" (360 decipoints).
Sets the compression factor for the body font. This
is a number from 1 to 500, representing the
percentage by which the font's normal character
width is compressed or expanded.
Examples
