NAME
       Tk_CanvasPsY,   Tk_CanvasPsBitmap,  Tk_CanvasPsColor,  Tk_CanvasPsFont,
       Tk_CanvasPsPath,	Tk_CanvasPsStipple - utility procedures	for generating
       Postscript for canvases

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<tk.h>

       double
       Tk_CanvasPsY(canvas, canvasY)

       int
       Tk_CanvasPsBitmap(interp, canvas, bitmap, x, y, width, height)

       int
       Tk_CanvasPsColor(interp,	canvas,	colorPtr)

       int
       Tk_CanvasPsFont(interp, canvas, tkFont)

       Tk_CanvasPsPath(interp, canvas, coordPtr, numPoints)

       int
       Tk_CanvasPsStipple(interp, canvas, bitmap)

ARGUMENTS
       Tk_Canvas canvas	(in)		    A  token  that identifies a	canvas
					    widget for which Postscript	is be-
					    ing	generated.

       double canvasY (in)		    Y-coordinate  in  the space	of the
					    canvas.

       Tcl_Interp *interp (in/out)	    A Tcl interpreter;	Postscript  is
					    appended to	its result, or the re-
					    sult may be	replaced with an error
					    message.

       Pixmap bitmap (in)		    Bitmap to use for generating Post-
					    script.

       int x (in)			    X-coordinate within	bitmap of left
					    edge of region to output.

       int y (in)			    Y-coordinate  within bitmap	of top
					    edge of region to output.

       int width (in)			    Width of region of bitmap to  out-
					    put, in pixels.

       int height (in)			    Height of region of	bitmap to out-
					    put, in pixels.

       XColor *colorPtr	(in)		    Information	about color  value  to
					    set	in Postscript.

       Tk_Font tkFont (in)		    Font for which Postscript is to be
					    generated.

       double *coordPtr	(in)		    Pointer to an array	of coordinates
					    for	 one  or more points specified
					    in canvas coordinates.  The	 order
					    of	values	in coordPtr is x1, y1,
					    x2,	y2, x3,	y3, and	so on.

       int numPoints (in)		    Number of points at	coordPtr.

DESCRIPTION
       These procedures	are called by canvas type managers to carry out	common
       functions  related  to  generating  Postscript.	Most of	the procedures
       take a canvas argument, which refers to a canvas	widget for which Post-
       script is being generated.

       Tk_CanvasPsY  takes as argument a y-coordinate in the space of a	canvas
       and returns the value that should be used for that point	in  the	 Post-
       script  currently  being	 generated  for	canvas.	 Y coordinates require
       transformation because Postscript uses an origin	at the lower-left cor-
       ner  whereas X uses an origin at	the upper-left corner.	Canvas x coor-
       dinates can be used directly in Postscript without transformation.

       Tk_CanvasPsBitmap generates Postscript to describe a region of  a  bit-
       map.  The Postscript is generated in proper image data format for Post-
       script, i.e., as	data between angle brackets, one bit per  pixel.   The
       Postscript  is appended to interp-_result and TCL_OK is returned	unless
       an error	occurs,	in which case TCL_ERROR	is returned and	interp-_result
       is overwritten with an error message.

       Tk_CanvasPsColor	 generates Postscript to set the current color to cor-
       respond to its colorPtr argument, taking	into  account  any  color  map
       specified  in the postscript command.  It appends the Postscript	to in-
       terp-_result and	returns	TCL_OK unless an error occurs, in  which  case
       TCL_ERROR  is  returned and interp-_result is overwritten with an error
       message.

       Tk_CanvasPsFont generates Postscript that  sets	the  current  font  to
       match  tkFont  as  closely as possible.	Tk_CanvasPsFont	takes into ac-
       count any font map specified in the postscript command, and it does the
       best  it	 can  at  mapping X fonts to Postscript	fonts.	It appends the
       Postscript to interp-_result and	returns	TCL_OK unless an error occurs,
       in  which  case TCL_ERROR is returned and interp-_result	is overwritten
       with an error message.

       Tk_CanvasPsPath generates Postscript to set the current path to the set
       of  points  given  by coordPtr and numPoints.  It appends the resulting
       Postscript to interp-_result.

       Tk_CanvasPsStipple generates Postscript that will fill the current path
       in  stippled  fashion.	It  uses bitmap	as the stipple pattern and the
       current Postscript color;  ones in the stipple bitmap are drawn in  the
       current	color, and zeroes are not drawn	at all.	 The Postscript	is ap-
       pended to interp-_result	and TCL_OK is returned,	unless	an  error  oc-
       curs,  in  which	case TCL_ERROR is returned and interp-_result is over-
       written with an error message.
