Summary

Turns your emacs buffer into a handwritten document

Commentary

The function `handwrite' creates PostScript output containing a
handwritten version of the current buffer.

Other functions that may be useful are:

    `handwrite-10pt': set the font size to 10 and find corresponding
                      values for the line spacing and the number of lines
                      on a page.
    `handwrite-11pt': which is similar
    `handwrite-12pt': which is also similar
    `handwrite-13pt': which is similar, too

    `handwrite-set-pagenumber': set and unset page numbering


If you are not satisfied with the type page there are a number of
variables you may want to set.

To use this, say `M-x handwrite' or type at your prompt
"emacs -l handwrite.el".

I tried to make it `iso_8859_1'-friendly, but there are some exotic
characters missing.


Known bugs:
- Page feeds do not work, and are ignored instead.
- Tabs are not always properly displayed.
- Handwrite may create corrupt PostScript if it encounters
  unknown characters.

Thanks to anyone who emailed me suggestions!
