jwz@lucid.com (Jamie Zawinski) (10/18/90)
Here is the most recent version of audio-tape.ps, the all-singing, all-dancing
PostScript program for generating audio cassette labels. It's pretty easy
to use even if you're not that familiar with PostScript - just fill in the
blanks. Extensively documented, too.
I am posting the whole thing, in its 58k glory, because the last time I
released a version of it, I first said "send mail if you want it," and the
seventy responses I got in the first day caused me to post it anyway.
Please let me know if you find any problems with it. Enjoy...

%% There are a few examples at the end of this file; print this for a

%% =========================================================================
%% HOW TO USE THIS
%% =========================================================================
%%
%% To print a tape label, you construct a call to one of several PostScript
%% procedures defined in this file. The calling syntax is fairly simple,
%% and you don't need to know PostScript to do it. Just fill in the blanks.
%%
%% For a tape label with one album on each side, both albums by the same band,
%% do this:
%%
%% (Band Name) (Album 1 Name) (Album 1 Date)
%% (Album 2 Name) (Album 2 Date)
%% [ <...album 1 songs....> ] [ <...album 2 songs....> ]
%% two-albums
%%
%% For a tape label with one album on each side, both albums by different
%% bands, do this:
%%
%% (Band 1 Name) (Album 1 Name) (Album 1 Date)
%% [ <...album 1 songs....> ]
%% (Band 2 Name) (Album 2 Name) (Album 2 Date)
%% [ <...album 2 songs....> ]
%% two-bands
%%
%% For a tape label with one double album consuming both sides, do this:
%%
%% (Band Name) (Album Name) (Album Date)
%% [ <...songs, side 1....> ]
%% [ <...songs, side 2....> ]
%% double-album
%%
%% For a tape label with three or four albums/EPs by the same band, do this:
%%
%% (Band Name) (Album 1.1 Name) (Album 1.2 Name) (Album 1.* Date)
%% (Album 2.1 Name) (Album 2.2 Name) (Album 2.* Date)
%% [ <...songs, side 1....> ]
%% [ <...songs, side 2....> ]
%% N-albums
%%
%% (Either of the strings (Album 1.2 Name) or (Album 1.2 Name) may be
%% an empty string; things will be positioned appropriately.)
%%
%% For a tape label with three or four albums/EPs by two different bands,
%% do this:
%%
%% (Band 1 Name) (Album 1.1 Name) (Album 1.2 Name) (Album 1.* Date)
%% [ <...songs, side 1...> ]
%% (Band 2 Name) (Album 2.1 Name) (Album 2.2 Name) (Album 2.* Date)
%% [ <...songs, side 2...> ]
%% two-bands-N-albums
%%
%%
%% In the above examples, [ <songs> ] should really be of the form
%%
%% [ (song 1) ... (song N) ] that is, an array of strings; or it
%% may also be of the form
%%
%% [[ (song 1) (song 1 time) ] that is, an array of arrays, where
%% [ (song 2) (song 2 time) ] each sub-array holds exactly two
%% ... strings. The first string is the name
%% [ (song N) (song N time) ]] of a song, and the second string is
%% the start-time, length, counter, or
%% whatever of the song. The song name is printed flushleft, and the song
%% time is printed flushright.
%%
%% If an entry in the song array is of the form
%% [ (song N) (song N time) ...font... ]
%% where ...font... is one of /B, /I, /BI, or /Title. This is explained a
%% little later.
%% =========================================================================
%% WHAT YOU WILL GET
%% =========================================================================
%%
%% The labels are printed two-per-page. You do not need to insert "showpage"s
%% in this file; that happens automagically.
%%
%% The band-names and album-names are printed on the spine of the label.
%% For the one-band-on-both-sides cases, the band-name is printed tall enough
%% to fill the label. For the two-band cases, the band names are printed one
%% atop the other. Album names are scaled so that all album names fit on
%% one atop the other on the spine.
%%
%% In all cases (spine, song lists, etc) it is not possible for a string to
%% be "too long" - font-widths are scaled so that the strings fit in the
%% available space (taking into account adjascent strings of the same height;
%% strings stacked above/next to each other are scaled as a unit. You'll
%% see what I mean.)
%%
%% Songs are printed in two columns on the back of the tape label, or on the
%% inside of the tape label (user-configurable). The name of the album is
%% printed above the song lists. When there are more than two albums on a
%% tape, the names of all three or four albums are printed on the spine, and
%% the names of albums 1.1 and 2.1 are printed above the song listings on
%% the inside.
%%
%% It is possible to specify the font of individual lines in the song listings
%% by placing a font-keyword in the third position of an element of the
%% song-list array. Valid face-specifiers are /B (bold), /I (italic), /BI
%% (bold italic), and /Title. If the font is unspecified, /B, /I, or /BI,
%% then the font used for the song name is determined by one of the variables
%% /song-font, /song-font-bold, /song-font-italic, or /song-font-bold-italic.
%% The font will always be scaled to be /song-font-height points tall.
%%
%% If, however, the font is specified as /Title, then the font used will b
%% the value of /title-font, and it will be /title-font-height tall; it will
%% also be underlined. The intent here is that specifying the font as /Title
%% makes an entry in the song listings look just like the album titles above
%% the listings. That way, if you have more than one album on the same side
%% of a tape, you can display a title for both of them, which was not possible
%% in versions prior to 1.5. (Extra hack: [(song) /Title] is considered to
%% be the same as [(song) () /Title], since the time is ignored for titles.)
%%
%% It is possible to include arbitrary graphics in place of the band-name
%% on the spine, to duplicate the way a band normally renders its name, or
%% whatever. It is also (as of v1.4) possible to include an arbitrary
%% graphic on the inside flap, or printed (lightly) under the song listings.
%% See below.
%% =========================================================================
%% HOW TO USE THIS UNDER UNIX
%% =========================================================================
%%
%% Of course, it's possible to just edit this file and print it each time you
%% want to print a label, but that kind of a pain. And you don't want a copy
%% of this file sitting around for every tape label you print, it's too big.
%% Here's one way to easily do it.
%%
%% - Save a copy of this file in a file called "audio-tape-1.4.ps" in a safe
%% place, so that if you screw up, you can do it again.
%% - Make a copy of this file called "audio-tape-prolog.ps" which consists
%% of everything from the beginning of the file up to and including the
%% line which says "%%EndProlog". Delete everything between the lines
%% which say "%%BeginDocumentation" and "%%EndDocumentation" - those lines
%% are the documentation you are reading now, and there's no sense in
%% sending N k of comments to the printer.
%% - Make a file called "audio-tape-trailer.ps" which consists of everything
%% from the line which says "%%Trailer" to the end of the file (just a few
%% lines).
%% - When you edit a new tape label, put it in its own file. Include in this
%% file only what the "How to Use This" section had you type in.
%% - To print a label or set of labels, do something like
%% "cat audio-tape-prolog.ps my-label.ps audio-tape-trailer.ps | lpr"
%% This will concatentate the PostScript code, the definitions of your
%% labels, and the necessary trailer together, and hand that as input to
%% "lpr" or whatever command you use for printing.
%%
%% I also have some Common Lisp code which maintains a database of tapes, and
%% can generate this PostScript code directly. It uses a simple textual file
%% format for storing the song listings; if you want it, send me mail. If you
%% use TI Explorer Lisp Machines, I have a totally whizzy menu-driven
%% interface to editing, searching, and printing these labels. Again, just ask.
%% =========================================================================
%% SIMPLE CUSTOMIZATION
%% =========================================================================
%%
%% To change the fonts of various things, change the values of the variables
%% /song-font, /band-font, /album-font, /inner-album-font, or /date-font.
%% It is not possible to change the height or aspect ratio of the fonts, as
%% those are computed at runtime.
%%
%% If you prefer the labels to be printed in such a way that the song listings
%% will appear on the inside of the tape box instead of the outside, set the
%% variable /songs-go-inside to true. It defaults to false.
%%
%% If you prefer the labels to be printed so that a band's graphic goes on the
%% inside of the tape box instead of the outside, set /icons-go-inside to
%% false. It defaults to false.
%%
%% If you prefer to have the spine of the label wrong-side-up, set /flip-spine
%% to true. It defaults to false.
%%
%% If /songs-go-inside and /icons-go-inside have the same value (both inside
%% or both outside) then the songs will be printed overlaying the icon. The
%% icon will be printed at 25% intensity so that you can still read the songs
%% on top of dark areas. This is customizable by changing the variable
%% /icon-fade-factor.
%%
%% One problem I encountered with this code was that my co-worker's tapes all
%% looked just like mine... I got around this by adding the parameter
%% /signature - set this to a string of your name or something, and it will
%% be printed on the back-spine of all of your labels. It can be multiple
%% lines by specifying it as [ (line 1) (line 2) ... ] instead of as a string.
%% (Embedding newlines in a string will not do what you want.)
%% =========================================================================
%% SOPHISTICATED CUSTOMIZATION
%% =========================================================================
%%
%% Defining a new magic-name-printer is pretty simple. Just define a
%% procedure for drawing the name, and index it in "magic-name-dict" under
%% the string which is the band's name. There are some fairly sophisticated
%% examples of this in this file. If you define any more, send them to me
%% and I'll include them in the next distribution (whether I like the band
%% or not :-)).
%%
%% Adding an icon-printer is similar - you use "magic-icon-dict" instead of
%% "magic-name-dict". For magic-names, define the procedures to draw in
%% a device-scale (1 unit = 1 point) space with origin at the upper left.
%% For icons, define the procedure to be in a one-unit tall space - 1 unit
%% will correspond to the entire height of the flap on which the icon is
%% drawn. For icons, the origin is at the XY center instead of the upper
%% left. This is all kind of arbitrary, but it doesn't matter too much,
%% because the beauty of PostScript is that you can scale/translate within
%% your procedure to work in the space that is most convenient to you.
%%
%% When you add something to magic-name-dict or magic-icon-dict, be sure to
%% use "CIput" instead of "put" to insure case-insensitivity.
%%
%% When /songs-go-inside and /icons-go-inside have the same value, meaning
%% that the songs will be printed overlaying the icon, we cause the icon to
%% be printed at quarter-intensity by changing the transfer function. If
%% your icon is written in such a way that this is not desirable, it's
%% possible to defeat it within a given icon printer by doing something
%% like "{} settransfer" within the scope of a "gsave".
%%
%% Note that magic-name and magic-icon printers are not used unless the label
%% being printed is a double album, or the albums on both sides are by the
%% same band.
%% =========================================================================
%% WISHLIST
%% =========================================================================
%%
%% o A general font-change mechanism would be nice, for font changes in the
%% signature as well as in the song listings.
%%
%% o Maybe there should be a way to print arbitrary text on the inside flap,
%% aside from defining a magic-icon printer.
%%
%% o The magic-icon-printers should be used even if there are two different
%% bands on one tape - print two of them side by side if necessary.
%%
%% o Maybe the magic-name printers should be invoked even if both sides of
%% the tape are not by the same band.
%%
%% o The height of the song listing font should be autoscaled in the event
%% that the user has more than twenty or so songs on one side of a tape.
%%
%% o When printing a song with the /Title flag, the title-fonts at the top
%% of the listings should be scaled along with the inline font. Also, the
%% normal song listings should not be autoscaled along with the inline
%% title as happens now. The titles should be treated as a unit, and the
%% songs as a unit, even though they may occupy the same region.
%% =========================================================================
%% WHAT THE CURRENTLY DEFINED MAGIC-NAME-PRINTERS DO
%% =========================================================================
%%
%% o Siouxsie and the Banshees is printed in an alternating sized, alternating
%% cased font, with the "and" over the "the" like on many early albums.
%% o Cabaret Voltaire is printed in a font that looks like the one on the
%% cover of "Micro-Phonies."
%% o New Order is printed with a black "New" overlapping a hollow "Order" as
%% on "Low Life" etc.
%% o OMD is printed on two lines, one font thicker than the other. The OE is
%% printed with an OE character.
%% o Front 242 is printed similarly.
%% o Love and Rockets has an icon - a heart on a rocket in a circle.
%% o Bauhaus has an icon - the Beggars' Banquet "face-in-circle" logo.
%% o Nitzer Ebb has three icons:
%% o If the album name is "That Total Age", the gear/star/hammer logo is
%% printed.
%% o If the album name is "Belief", a low-resolution bitmap of the angry
%% looking eye from the cover of that album is printed. This is a fair
%% example of how to incorperate such bitmaps, and it doesn't take up
%% that much space, either.
%% o Otherwise, the star-over-gear icon from the Warsaw Ghetto EP is used.
%% o Nine Inch Nails has an icon - "NIN" in a box with the first N backwards.
%%

%% CHANGELOG
%% =========================================================================
%% some time in 1988... created by Jamie Zawinski.
%% 30 may 90 Jamie Zawinski
%% fixed a bug which made it impossible to have the band-name and
%% album-name in different fonts for double-albums.
%% 27 jul 90 Jamie Zawinski
%% fixed the above fix.
%% 28 jul 90 Jamie Zawinski
%% Modified the magic-name printers to work around a bug in version 1.1
%% of Adrian Aylward's Amiga postscript interpreter (post). In that
%% implementation, 'get' doesn't work on dictionaries whose keys are
%% string instead of names; so I added some calls to 'cvn' before
%% storing into 'magic-name-dict'.
%% 6 aug 90 Jamie Zawinski
%% Implemented magic-icons for arbitrary graphics on the back.
%% Improved auto-scaling a great deal.
%% 9 aug 90 Jamie Zawinski
%% Made songs able to be strings as well as [()()], and made the signature
%% able to be multiple lines. Made sig able to be in a different font
%% than the song listings. Made magic-name and magic-icon lookups happen
%% case-insensitively.
%% 17 oct 90 Jamie Zawinski
%% Made it possible to change the fonts of individual song listings, and
%% have album-titles embedded in the middle of the song listings. Fixed
%% the auto-scaling of v1.5 to produce the exact same output as v1.4
%% except where v1.5 does better.
