92
93
94 Pdffonts reads a configuration file at startup. It first
95 tries to find the user's private config file, ~/.xpdfrc. If
96 that doesn't exist, it looks for a system-wide config file,
97 typically /usr/local/etc/xpdfrc (but this location can be
98 changed when pdffonts is built). See the xpdfrc(5)
99 man page for details.
100 !!OPTIONS

102
