+ Ghostview -- An X11 user interface for ghostscript.
+
+Ghostview is full function user interface for ghostscript 2.4 and later.
+
+Brief list of features:
+ - Ghostview parses any known version of Adobe's Document Structuring
+ Conventions.
+ - Page size is automatically determined from the Document Structuring
+ Comments. The user is able to override the values from the comments.
+ - Window size is set to the bounding box for Encapsulated PostScript figures.
+ - Default page size is Letter and can be changed via Xresources or
+ application defaults file to A4 (or any other valid size) for our
+ European friends.
+ - Scrollbars appear when necessary.
+ - Page orientation is automatically determined from the Document Structuring
+ Comments. The user is able to override the values from the comments.
+ - Ability to view at 4 orientations: Portrait, Landscape, Upside-down,
+ and Seascape (for those who rotate landscape the other direction).
+ - Ability to restrict rendering to grayscale or monochrome. (Requires
+ ghostscript 2.6.1.)
+ - Ability to mark pages for printing, or saving. (Good for people that
+ printed a 100 page document and lost page 59 due to a printer jam.)
+ - Can popup zoom windows at printer resolution
+ (1 display dot = 1 printer dot).
+
+ The Ghostview distribution includes a Ghostview Widget that people
+ are encouraged to use in other programs.
