CardStock / News: Recent posts

I changed the source to expand the EPS file in place, and defined the --defereps option to instead let the PS interpreter do that later.
This should allow network printers to be used, at the cost of a larger .ps file size (so what?). I don't know if there's much reason to keep the --defereps option, but it's there for now anyway.

Added the Avery:5267 format per Mihai Ibanescu's (Misa) contribution, but haven't tested it yet.... read more

cardstock is a Perl script which maps EPS images to business card stock (e.g., Avery) or other layouts, with postscript output.

The CardStock project consists of a perl script, cardstock.pl, which maps EPS images onto a page of business card stock, e.g., Avery #5376. Output is postscript code, and one or more images may be placed on a page. EPS, encapsulated postscript, can be created by many applications; for instance, XFig can be used to draw a business card, then export it as eps. The cardstock database is currently defined in the file, and is very limited, but easy to add to. Alternatively, all the cardstock layout parameters may be specified on the command line.

I've attempted to get cardstock configured on
Source Forge as a new project, and hopefully have
an accessible release. The single perl script has
all the code and documentation/manpage in pod
format.
