I've not seen a FAQs for this group,
but I have (I hope) a relatively simple
new-user question (pointers to a suitable
FAQ would be appreciated).

In the MSDOS version of Ghostscript,
how does one zoom and pan a given page displayed
on a VGA monitor?

For the first page, I can use something like:
 GS> -400 -400 translate
 GS> 3.0 3.0 scale
 GS> (myfile.ps) run
but in the mode that I am currently running,
the subsequent pages are reset to letters
of unreadable size (I do not seem to be able
to insert the translate/scale commands
between the pauses).

Can I go backwards to a previous page?

Am I overlooking something in the DOC files?

Thanks in advance.
