## Class Description

     TPostScript

     Graphics interface to PostScript.

     This code was initially developed in the context of HIGZ and PAW
     by Olivier Couet and Pierre Juillot.
     It has been converted to a C++ class by Rene Brun.

TPostScript() : TVirtualPS()

     Default PostScript constructor

TPostScript(const char *fname, Int_t wtype) :TVirtualPS(fname, wtype)

     Initialize the PostScript interface

      fname : PostScript file name
      wtype : PostScript workstation type

      The possible workstation types are:
         111 ps  Portrait
         112 ps  Landscape
         113 eps

void Open(const char *fname, Int_t wtype)

     Open a PostScript file

~TPostScript()

     Default PostScript destructor

void Close(Option_t *)

     Close a PostScript file

void On()

     Activate an already open PostScript file

void Off()

     Deactivate an already open PostScript file

void CellArrayBegin(Int_t W, Int_t /*H*/, Double_t x1, Double_t x2, Double_t y1, Double_t y2)

     Draw a Cell Array

     Drawing a PostScript Cell Array is in fact done thanks to three
     procedures: CellArrayBegin, CellArrayFill, and CellArrayEnd.

     CellArrayBegin: Initiate the Cell Array by writing the necessary
                     PostScript procedures and the initial values of the
                     required parameters. The input parameters are:
                     W: number of boxes along the width.
                     H: number of boxes along the height
                     x1,x2,y1,y2: First box coordinates.
     CellArrayFill:  Is called for each box of the Cell Array. The first
                     box is the top left one and the last box is the
                     bottom right one. The input parameters are the Red,
                     Green, and Blue components of the box colour. These
                     Levels are between 0 and 255.
     CellArrayEnd:   Finishes the Cell Array.

     PostScript cannot handle arrays larger than 65535. So the Cell Array
     is drawn in several pieces.

void CellArrayFill(Int_t r, Int_t g, Int_t b)

void CellArrayEnd()

void DefineMarkers()

     Define the markers

void DrawBox(Double_t x1, Double_t y1, Double_t x2, Double_t y2)

     Draw a Box

void DrawFrame(Double_t xl, Double_t yl, Double_t xt, Double_t yt, Int_t mode, Int_t border, Int_t dark, Int_t light)

     Draw a Frame around a box

     mode = -1  box looks as it is behind the screen
     mode =  1  box looks as it is in front of the screen
     border is the border size in already precomputed PostScript units
     dark  is the color for the dark part of the frame
     light is the color for the light part of the frame

void DrawPolyLine(Int_t nn, TPoints *xy)

     Draw a PolyLine

      Draw a polyline through  the points xy.
      If nn=1 moves only to point x,y.
      If nn=0 the x,y are  written  in the PostScript file
              according to the current transformation.
      If nn>0 the line is clipped as a line.
      If nn<0 the line is clipped as a fill area.

void DrawPolyLineNDC(Int_t nn, TPoints *xy)

     Draw a PolyLine in NDC space

      Draw a polyline through the points xy.
      If nn=1 moves only to point x,y.
      If nn=0 the x,y are  written  in the PostScript file
              according to the current transformation.
      If nn>0 the line is clipped as a line.
      If nn<0 the line is clipped as a fill area.

     Draw markers at the n WC points x, y

void DrawPolyMarker(Int_t n, Double_t *x, Double_t *y)

              according to the current NT.
      If nn>0 the line is clipped as a line.
      If nn<0 the line is clipped as a fill area.

void DrawPS(Int_t nn, Double_t *xw, Double_t *yw)

     Draw a PolyLine

     Draw a polyline through  the points xw,yw.
     If nn=1 moves only to point xw,yw.

     +------------+------------------+-----------------------------------+

void MakeGreek()

     Reencode the Greek (/Symbol) font into the special font (/Special)

void MovePS(Int_t ix, Int_t iy)

     Move to a new position

void NewPage()

     Move to a new PostScript page

void Range(Float_t xsize, Float_t ysize)

     Set the range for the paper in centimeters

void SaveRestore(Int_t flag)

     Compute number of gsaves for restore
     This allows to write the correct number of grestore at the
     end of the PS file.

void SetFillColor( Color_t cindex )

     Set color index for fill areas

void SetFillPatterns(Int_t ipat, Int_t color)

     Patterns definition

     Define the pattern ipat in the current PS file. ipat can vary from
     1 to 25. Together with the pattern, the color (color) in which the
     pattern has to be drawn is also required. A pattern is defined in the
     current PS file only the first time it is used. Some level 2
     Postscript functions are used, so on level 1 printers, patterns will
     not work. This is not a big problem because patterns are
     defined only if they are used, so if they are not used a PS level 1
     file will not be polluted by level 2 features, and in any case the old
     patterns used a lot of memory which made them almost unusable on old
     level 1 printers. Finally we should say that level 1 devices are
     becoming very rare. The official PostScript is now level 3 !

void SetLineColor( Color_t cindex )

     Set color index for lines

void SetLineJoin( Int_t linejoin )

     Set the value of the global parameter TPostScript::fgLineJoin.
     This parameter determines the appearance of joining lines in a PostScript
     output.
     It takes one argument which may be:
       - 0 (miter join)
       - 1 (round join)
       - 2 (bevel join)
     The default value is 0 (miter join).

/* */

     To change the line join behaviour just do:
     TPostScript::SetLineJoin(2); // Set the PS line join to bevel.

void SetLineStyle(Style_t linestyle)

     Change the line style

       linestyle = 2 dashed
                 = 3  dotted
                 = 4  dash-dotted
                  else = solid

     See TStyle::SetLineStyleString for style definition

void SetLineWidth(Width_t linewidth)

     Change the line width

void SetMarkerColor( Color_t cindex )

     Set color index for markers

void SetColor(Int_t color)

     Set the current color.

void SetColor(Float_t r, Float_t g, Float_t b)

     Set directly current color (don't go via TColor).

void SetTextColor( Color_t cindex )

     Set color index for text

void Text(Double_t xx, Double_t yy, const char *chars)

     Write a string of characters

     This routine writes the string chars into a PostScript file
     at position xx,yy in world coordinates.

     Note the special action of the following special characters:

           ` : go to Greek
           ' : go to special
           ~ : go to ZapfDingbats
           ? : go to subscript
           ^ : go to superscript
           ! : go to normal level of script
           & : backspace one character
           # : end of Greek or of ZapfDingbats

     Note1: This special characters have no effect on the screen.
     Note2: To print one of the characters above in the Postscript file
            use the escape character "@" in front of the character.

void TextNDC(Double_t u, Double_t v, const char *chars)

     Write a string of characters in NDC

Int_t UtoPS(Double_t u)

     Convert U from NDC coordinate to PostScript

Int_t VtoPS(Double_t v)

     Convert V from NDC coordinate to PostScript

Int_t XtoPS(Double_t x)

     Convert X from world coordinate to PostScript

Int_t YtoPS(Double_t y)

     Convert Y from world coordinate to PostScript

void Zone()

     Initialize the PostScript page in zones
