<title>Converting a document to PostScript</title>
<p>
You can convert documents of the following format types to PostScript files:
</p>
<list>
<item><p>DjVu (.djvu, .djv)</p></item>
<item><p>Portable Document Format (.pdf)</p></item>
<item><p>Tagged Image File Format (.tiff, .tif)</p></item>
</list>
<p>
This works by opening the file in <app>Document Viewer</app> and "printing" the document as a PostScript file.
</p>

select <gui>Print</gui> or press
<keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>P</key></keyseq> and go to the
<gui>General</gui> tab.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>

<gui>Output format</gui>.
</p>
</item>
