How to remove black frames around n-up pages?
Windows driver generates black frames around virtual pages when it does n-up printing. The frames are drawn in nupshowpage procedure. To remove the frames this procedure must be modified. On level 3 interpreters Hack-MSDriver-n-up IdiomSet can identify and replace this procedure when the job file is loaded by the interpreter. No modification of the job file is needed. To activate the replacement you need to copy the idiom file to /Resource/IdiomSet/ directory on the printer or host-based interpreter. The PostScript root directory on a host-based interpreter likely to be different from the system root. For one-time replacement you can also prepend the IdiomSet file to the job file. For level 1 and 2 interpreters one has to remove framenup { … } if fragment from the job file itself using any text editor.
