NAME psfiletype - determine format of file for PostScript conversion SYNOPSIS /usr/etc/appletalk/psfiletype file DESCRIPTION The psfiletype program scans the given file to figure out what kind of file it is; mainly to distinguish between PostScript and image files so that they may be printed correctly on a PostScript printer. After determining the data type, psfiletype prints one of the strings: image, eps, PostScript, unsupported, or unknown. The result ``unsupported'' means that the file is an image, but the imagetops program won't be able to convert it to PostScript. DIAGNOSTICS Psfiletype exits with status 1 if it cannot read the file SEE ALSO imagetox(1), imagetops(1)
