Quick Compiler flag reference

I'd like to print a short overview of all compiler flags that can be used for the Intel Fortran Compiler v11. As all available pdf-documents are to big, I'm now focussing on converting the man page (man ifort) to a pdf. This however proves to be difficult as the majority of the lines are to wide to be contained in the standard ps output (eg. man -t ifort > ifort.ps). Any ideas how I can fix this or how I can create such a quick reference pdf for the compiler flags? Best regards Koen Poppe

Do you need ALL the possible compiler options, or just a simple 2-sided trifold with the most common and useful options?

Early in the game, people need to know about -assume options, which -fp settings may be over-ridden, and that -O1 means no vectorization (since 10.0). Perhaps also that it is unlikely to be useful to add SSSE3 as well as SSE3, or (for now) SSE4.2in addition toSSE4.1.

This is not realy what I'm looking for. I'm looking for something with the clarity of the manpage, but then correctly printable. Can anyone confirm the behaviour with the long lines?

This is how I've solved it: I've dumped the man page to an ascii file, embedded it in a "pre" environment in a html page. With find/replace and regular expressions I've given it some mark-up. It's not ideal but it worked.

If anyone would like a pdf of it, I can always send it.
