  The possible workstation types are:
     111 ps  Portrait
     112 ps  Landscape
     113 eps

void Open(const char *fname, Int_t wtype)

~TPostScript()
 Default PostScript destructor

void CellArrayBegin(Int_t W, Int_t H, Double_t x1, Double_t x2, Double_t y1, Double_t y2)
 Draw a Cell Array

 Drawing a PostScript Cell Array is in fact done thanks to three
 procedures: CellArrayBegin, CellArrayFill, and CellArrayEnd.

 CellArrayBegin: Initiate the Cell Array by writing the necessary
                 PostScript procedures and the initial values of the
                 required parameters. The input parameters are:
                 W: number of boxes along the width.
                 H: number of boxes along the height
                 x1,x2,y1,y2: First box coordinates.
 CellArrayFill:  Is called for each box of the Cell Array. The first
                 box is the top left one and the last box is the
                 bottom right one. The input parameters are the Red,
                 Green, and Blue components of the box colour. These
                 Levels are between 0 and 255.
 CellArrayEnd:   Finishes the Cell Array.

 PostScript cannot handle arrays larger than 65535. So the Cell Array
 is drawn in several pieces.

void CellArrayFill(Int_t r, Int_t g, Int_t b)

void CellArrayEnd()

void DefineMarkers()

void DrawBox(Double_t x1, Double_t y1, Double_t x2, Double_t y2)

void DrawFrame(Double_t xl, Double_t yl, Double_t xt, Double_t yt, Int_t mode, Int_t border, Int_t dark, Int_t light)
 Draw a Frame around a box

 mode = -1  box looks as it is behind the screen
 mode =  1  box looks as it is in front of the screen
 border is the border size in already precomputed PostScript units
 dark  is the color for the dark part of the frame
 light is the color for the light part of the frame

void DrawPolyLine(Int_t nn, TPoints *xy)
 Draw a PolyLine

  Draw a polyline through  the points xy.
  If nn=1 moves only to point x,y.
  If nn=0 the x,y are  written  in the PostScript file
          according to the current transformation.
  If nn>0 the line is clipped as a line.
  If nn<0 the line is clipped as a fill area.

void DrawPolyLineNDC(Int_t nn, TPoints *xy)

void MakeGreek()
 Reencode the Greek (/Symbol) font into the special font (/Special)

void MovePS(Int_t ix, Int_t iy)
 Move to a new position

void NewPage()
 Move to a new PostScript page

void Range(Float_t xsize, Float_t ysize)
 Set the range for the paper in centimeters

void SaveRestore(Int_t flag)
 Compute number of gsaves for restore
 This allows to write the correct number of grestore at the
 end of the PS file.

void SetFillColor( Color_t cindex )
 Set color index for fill areas

void SetFillPatterns(Int_t ipat, Int_t color)
 Patterns definition

 Define the pattern ipat in the current PS file. ipat can vary from
 1 to 25. Together with the pattern, the color (color) in which the
 pattern has to be drawn is also required. A pattern is defined in the
 current PS file only the first time it is used. Some level 2
 Postscript functions are used, so on level 1 printers, patterns will
 not work. This is not a big problem because patterns are
 defined only if they are used, so if they are not used a PS level 1
 file will not be polluted by level 2 features, and in any case the old
 patterns used a lot of memory which made them almost unusable on old
 level 1 printers. Finally we should say that level 1 devices are
 becoming very rare. The official PostScript is now level 3 !

void SetLineColor( Color_t cindex )
 Set color index for lines

void SetLineStyle(Style_t linestyle)
 Change the line style

   linestyle = 2 dashed
             = 3  dotted
             = 4  dash-dotted
              else = solid

 See TStyle::SetLineStyleString for style definition

void SetLineWidth(Width_t linewidth)
 Change the line width

void SetMarkerColor( Color_t cindex )
 Set color index for markers

void SetColor(Int_t color)
 Set the current color.

void SetColor(Float_t r, Float_t g, Float_t b)
 Set directly current color (don't go via TColor).

void SetTextColor( Color_t cindex )
 Set color index for text

void Text(Double_t xx, Double_t yy, const char *chars)
 Write a string of characters

 This routine writes the string chars into a PostScript file
 at position xx,yy in world coordinates.

 Note the special action of the following special characters:

       ` : go to Greek
       ' : go to special
       ~ : go to ZapfDingbats
       ? : go to subscript
       ^ : go to superscript
       ! : go to normal level of script
       & : backspace one character
       # : end of Greek or of ZapfDingbats

 Note1: This special characters have no effect on the screen.
 Note2: To print one of the characters above in the Postscript file
        use the escape character "@" in front of the character.

void TextNDC(Double_t u, Double_t v, const char *chars)
 Write a string of characters in NDC

Int_t UtoPS(Double_t u)
 Convert U from NDC coordinate to PostScript

Int_t VtoPS(Double_t v)
