Since last May, we have print/u2ps; sadly, upstream seems to have ditched it:
https://github.com/arsv/u2ps/
This repository has been archived by the owner
on Sep 1, 2023. It is now read-only.
Is anyone aware of a continuation that is alive?
(I forked it back then, as did a few other people,
but none of those seems to be really maintained.)
To recall: u2ps is supposed to be better at Unicode,
which a2ps does not support at all. I am having problems
with the rendering the Unicode IPA notation, as shown
in the attached files.
I guess it's because the default font (which is FreeMono)
does not actually have the glyphs for those characters.
Trying to chnage the font as described in doc/fonts.txt
does not work, however: having a copy of fonts/charis
under /usr/locale/share/u2ps/fonts sill results in
$ u2ps -f Charis ipa.txt ipa.ps
unknown font set: Charis
Can anyone make the attached text file render correctly
using u2ps (or any other PS package, for that matter?)
