NAME
       mag - computes fontsizes and magsteps

SYNOPSIS
       mag [-Rdpi] magstep . . .

       mag [-r] [-Rdpi] fontsize . . .

DESCRIPTION
       This  tool  calculates fontsizes given magsteps.	 TeXfonts
       are provided as true sized  fonts  or  as  magnifications.
       The fontsize of a true sized font equals the resolution of
       the printer (ex.	 300).	The fontsize of a font	magnified
       n magsteps equals: 1.2nx300 rounded to its nearest integer
       value.  Fontnames for TeX fonts normally consists  of  the
       name  (cmr), pointsize (10), type (pk) and fontsize (360),
       for example: cmr10.360pk.

EXAMPLES
       The result of mag -R240 -2 0 0.5 1 will be:

	      167 240 263 288

       The inverse function is computed with the -r  option.  The
       result  of  mag	-r  -R240  167	240  263  288 will be the
       fontsteps:

	      -2 0 0.5 1

       The UNIX shells allow command substitution. One can write:

	      mag -r -R240 `mag -R240 -2 0 0.5 1`
