Man1 - dvired.1

dvired - print dvi-files

dvired [ options ] file

dvired behaves like dvips, except for the fact that two logical pages are put onto each physical sheet of paper.

For options, see /dvips/(1). This program only interprets the following options:

-o file - redirect output into file.

-P printer - direct output to printer.

-f - direct output to stdout.

Any other option is passed directly to dvips.

It is assumed that the PRINTER-variable is set.

dvired -Plw foo - send output to printer lw.
dvired -o foo.ps foo - send output to file foo.ps.
dvired -pp4-7 foo - send 4 pages (reduced onto 2 sheets) of foo to the printer.
dvired foo -f | ghostview - - preview output with ghostview.

/dvips/(1)

dvired is fixed on A4 paper size. If you want to use it with other paper, you have to change the settings within the source.
