-apsfilter is a magic printfilter, that saves you work to "look for" and
-"use different filter programs", that convert your file into something
-suitable for your printer.
+apsfilter is a magic printfilter, that allows you to print different document
+types "automagically" without having to convert them manually into something
+which is understood by your lineprinter. Apsfilter supports the following
+file and compression types: gzip, bzip, compress, freeze, pack, ASCII, BMP,
+Data (data,PCL,...), English, TeX DVI, FIG, GIF, Group 3 Fax, HTML, JPEG,
+Mail/News, PBM/PNM/PPM, PC Bitmap Data, PDF, Postscript(tm), raw, script
+(shell,..), Text, sunraster, tiff, roff (nroff, groff, troff).
 
-Here a "real life" example, how apsfilter makes your life easier
-printing different document format, even if compressed:
-    lpr ascii.Z test.gif picture.tiff TeX.dvi.gz webpage.html docu.pdf
+Example: lpr ascii.Z test.gif picture.tiff TeX.dvi.gz webpage.html docu.pdf
 
-- Apsfilter first translates every document into Postscript and then pipes
-  it through ghostscript, if you don't have a PS printer.
-- Printer Setup is done with the SETUP program.
+Prerequisites: Filter programs, installed automatically by FreeBSD ports
+collection, Postscript Printer or Printer supported by ghostscript, Berkeley
+compatible line printer scheduler (lpd) or Line Printer Next Generation
+(LPRng) which is so to say the successor.

-  see who is using apsfilter and where. That would be very kind !
+SETUP installs you printer by creating suitable /etc/printcap entries for
+serial and parallel printers and customizes apsfilter for your system/printer.
