Comment(by hamish):
oh, and we might want to offer draft/print quality option for ps2pdf, see
http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Ps.map_scripts#Converting_PostScript_to_PDF
the default for gs is to reduce to 72dpi which is fine for on the computer
monitor and presentations, but not so good for printing hardcopies. it
might be worth considering making the high quality version the default
(the file size is bigger, but it doesn't scale as hugely you might expect,
more like 75% qual JPEG -> 90% qual JPEG).
`-dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -r1200`
that would need to be added twice, near the -dCompatibilityLevel= options,
from `ps2pdfwr`:
{{{
# We have to include the options twice because -I only takes effect if it
# appears before other options.
}}}
(but we are not using -I, so perhaps it doesn't matter and the early `-P-
-dSAFER -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4` can be removed)
