the system-wide configuration file for Cedilla.
HEADER AND FOOTER FORMAT
The format passed to the -h and -f options is of the form
- [left,]center[,right]
-
where left, center and right are strings that may contain any of the following sequences:
- %% typeset a percent sign
- %, typeset a comma
- %p typeset the page number as an Arabic number
- %P typeset the page number in words
- %r typeset the page number as a small Roman number

NOTES
By design, Cedilla only accepts input data in UTF-8. You are expected to use an external converter such as iconv(1) or luit(1) in order to print text encoded in a legacy encoding.
Cedilla is unable to print data that comes from a pipe; this is unavoidable, as Cedilla makes two passes over its input file.
