How do I create a postscript file of my LaTeX document under UNIX?
The standard way to convert a LaTeX document to a postscript file under UNIX is to use dvips. Dvips converts a dvi file into a ps file. After having created your dvi file, named mypaper.dvi, say, simply type dvips -o mypaper.ps mypaper on the command line. This creates a postscript file with the name mypaper.ps. A shorter version of the same command is dvips mypaper -o but this may not work on all installations. Postscript files may be viewed with ghostview (distributed with ghostscript).
