Hi,
drawing the announcement card for my baby with groff ;-)
I want to put two of them on one page. Of course, I could
write the groff code twice, or make an EPS file and include
twice the EPS code in my document, but I would like to know
if I can play with the postscript like that:
My postscript file is:
%%BeginPageSetup
BP
%%EndPageSetup
% the whole stuff
EP
Is it possible to make of "the whole stuff" a postscript macro
with something like:
/myprettycard {
% the whole stuff
} def
myprettycard
% some translate code
myprettycard
Why do I want to do that ? Because "the whole stuff" has is a pretty big
stuff with pictures in it, and I want to make a smaller postscript file
by playing with macros. Of course I could have asked on comp.lang.postscript,
but I thought groffers would know better what the postscript output is
made of ;-)
Do you think it is possible ?
