-c, --check, --dry-run
don't perform any action
Fixes:
- Remove junk before and after PostScript content - Use only
Unix end of lines (
)
- Remove empty lines - Fix Apple prologue (fixmacps) - Fix
FrameMaker prologue (fixfmps) - Fix CorelDraw prologue (fixnt) -
Fix Windows NT 3.5/4.0 prologue (fixnt) - Fix Windows 95 pro-
logue - Ensure there is a `%%BeginSetup/%%EndSetup' section -
Removes Canvas' extraneaous `%%EndDocument:' comments - Split
too long lines
If the FILE seems really in a bad state, ghostscript may be used to
perform a full rewrite. The output might then be significantly bigger,
but much safer.
