Thanks for your interest Funs. This is actually what I figured out. I wrote a script using Gnu 'sed' and now I am able to change multiple ps files at once. 13 0 -0.5 0 works for my case. :) > On 11 Dec 2013, at 01:52, Funs Seelen wrote: > > Hi Arda, > > Whatever script you use doesn't matter.

Hi Arda, Whatever script you use doesn't matter. The point is that you search and replace text in the ps-file, so open the file with a text editor (e.g. gedit). For me it usually works to change the following line for all textfields in the patch (e.g. use Ctrl-H): Old: 13 -0.0 0.0 0 false DrawT

Hi, After a few hours of work I decided that my solution was not a good idea. :) If I go back with Mr. Puckette’s script, how can I use it ? Is it a command line script or a piece of code that will work in pure data ? Thanks. On 10 Dec 2013, at 10:34, Arda Eden wrote: > Mr. Puckette, > Actual

Mr. Puckette, Actually I am not familiar with awk and I couldn’t figure out how to use this script. Anyway, your script gave me an idea. I edited a postscript file and found the line related to the text justification. I think I can write a shell script now and mass change the necessary lines in

I’m not familiar with Latex, but are you able to pull in PDFs? Just double click the .ps file and Preview will convert it to PDF. See if that looks a little better. I am just now finishing a book on Pd, and use PDF figures converted from PostScript. I see the same vertical alignm

Hi all - I've used awk scripts. The exact thing to do depends on font size and on windowing system. Most recently my awk script was this: BEGIN {last = -10} /findfont 8/ { last=NR $1 = "/Courier-Bold" $3 = 11.7 + 2 } { if (NR == last+2) { $1

Hi,I am just about to finish a Turkish book about Pure Data. I am writing my book using Latex. The patch file example figures I use are directly printed (to file) as postscript files. But the fonts inside the object boxes are vertically justified to the top and that looks ugly (see the sample in at
