NAME

xpdf - Portable Document Format (PDF) file viewer for X (version 1.00)

SYNOPSIS

xpdf [options? [[PDF-file [[page |

• dest]]

DESCRIPTION

Xpdf is a viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. (These are also sometimes also called Acrobat' files, from the name of Adobe's PDF software.) Xpdf runs under the X Window System on UNIX, VMS, and OS/2.

To run xpdf, simply type:

xpdf file.pdf

where file.pdf is your PDF file. The file name can be followed by a number specifying the page which should be displayed first, e.g.:

xpdf file.pdf 18

You can also give a named destination, prefixed with +' in place of the page number.

You can also start xpdf without opening any files:

xpdf

CONFIGURATION FILE

Xpdf reads a configuration file at startup. It first tries to find the user's private config file, /.xpdfrc. If that doesn't exist, it looks for a system-wide config file, typically /usr/local/etc/xpdfrc (but this location can be changed when xpdf is built). See the xpdfrc(5) man page for details.

OPTIONS

Many of the following options can be set with configuration file commands or X resources. These are listed in square brackets with the description of the corresponding command line option.

-g geometry

Set the initial window geometry. (-geometry is equivalent.) __xpdf.geometry__?

-title title

Set the window title. By default, the title will be xpdf.title__]

-cmap

Install a private colormap. This is ignored on TrueColor? visuals. __xpdf.installCmap__?

-rgb number

Set the size of largest RGB cube xpdf will try to allocate. The default is 5 (for a 5x5x5 cube); set to a smaller number to conserve color table entries. This is ignored with private colormaps and on TrueColor? visuals.
