.SH DESCRIPTION |
| 12 |
.I Impress |
| 13 |
reads each metafile |
| 14 |
.I file |
| 15 |
in sequence and converts it to output suitable for the imagen |
| 16 |
line of printers. |
| 17 |
If the option |
| 18 |
.I c |
| 19 |
is specified, the input files are only conditioned for output, ie. |
| 20 |
expanded (see pexpand). |
| 21 |
This is useful if many copies of the same output is desired. |
| 22 |
If the option |
| 23 |
.I r |
| 24 |
is instead specified, the input is assumed already to be conditioned. |
| 25 |
If no input files are specified, the standard input is read. |
