A minimalistic PostScript™ output is available from AB-BLAST 3.0 when
mformat=4
is specified on the command line.
The output is a crude, 2-dimensional schematic representation
of the HSPs found.
The resultant output files can be printed “as is” on PostScript™
printers but will eat reams of paper,
at a rate of one page per reported database sequence!
You have been warned!!!
Files can be viewed directly in some PostScript™ viewers,
or converted from PS to PDF for viewing by
Adobe Reader.
An appropriate filename extension for PostScript™ output is
.ps.
The tools
gimp-print,
ps2pdf
and
ghostscript
may also aid in converting from PostScript™ to PDF.
