in batch mode to send certain frames of an NCGM to a color PostScript printer?
First, modify the file $NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/ncarv_spool and add the line: pscolor : -d ps.color -d simulatebg : | lpr -Pxxxx where xxxx is the name of your PostScript printer. Then, if your metafile is called gmeta and you want to print frames 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8, you would type the following: ictrans -e ‘spooler pscolor’ -e ‘1,4P’ -e ‘8P’ -e ‘quit’ gmeta For more information you can see the man pages for ictrans and/or ncarv_spool. • How can I get the “Print” button in idt to work? You need to set up an ncarv_spool file that indicates what your various output devices are. For example, if you have two PostScript printers, where one is a color printer called “lpc” and the other one is a black-and-white printer called “lpbw”, then your ncarv_spool file might look something like this: pscolor : -d ps.color -d simulatebg : | lpr -Plpc psbw : -d ps.mono : | lpr -Plpbw Put this file in the directory $NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg. Then, when you run idt and click on the “Print” button, you should see
