+These commands eliminate the compiling and installing of the

+This command modifies the configure script to search for
+<application>Ghostscript</application> fonts
+at the location where they were installed by the <acronym>BLFS</acronym>
+instructions.</para>
+
+<para><parameter>--sysconfdir=/etc/a2ps</parameter>: Configuration data

+<para><parameter>--with-medium=letter</parameter>: This switch changes
+the default paper format of A4 to letter. Installations that utilize A4
+would eliminate this switch.</para>
