Is it possible to import a Linux textinfo document and then convert

Woops! It's actually a Linux man page - tree.1.gz

I'm need a way to typeset it for printing out.

I copied and pasted the screen text to a text file and printed that. 
The line length has messed up the output though.


If you just need a nice printed version of the man page:

man -t manpage

dumps a man page in nicely formattted postscript to stdout. You can 
pipe this directly into lpr, gv, pstopdf or whatever.


Daniel



Thanks for that Daniel :)

I actually made a PDF conversion by doing:

man -t manpage  manpage.ps

ps2pdf manpage.ps

I was then able to view the pdf file with KPDF. I also 
managed to print the pages out on both sides of the paper. 
Printing directly to lpr only worked for printing on one 
side of the paper.


The only problem is that the page numbers are not being 
printed out on each page. But they are printed if I print 
from a PDF generated by LyX.


Any suggestions please?
