What were you trying to do?
Print out 4 pages of text in portrait mode on a single sheet using
multips.
What's wrong:
The documentation has the wrong information on the defaults. By
using the defaults I got only one row of sheets per page and 2 columns.
What should have happened:
The man page states that the default for r (rows per page) is
2 and the default for c (columns per page) is also 2. It should say that the
default for r (rows per page) is only 1. Bye setting both r and c to 2 I
then was able to get 4 sheets per page.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Documentation error is under the heading Options, subheading r and c.
