SYNOPSIS
vdump [ -slpDa ] filename
DESCRIPTION
vdump turns the vasari format file in
its argument to encapsulated PostScript on its stadard output. The
result can be either sent directly to a printer or included in any
document processor which supports encapsulated PostScript diagrams
- eg. WordPerfect, Tex etc. For example:
- example% vdump campin.v | lpr -Plaser
or
- example% vdump -l -s4 -D campin.v > campin.PS
vdump normally outputs portrait, you can force output to
portrait or landscape with the -p or -l flags.
The -a flag makes vdump select either portrait or landscape
orientation so as to get the largest possible image onto an A4
sheet.
vdump will dump one or three band unsigned char images only.
OPTIONS
- -p
- Force portrait output.
- -l
- Force landscape output.
- -a
- Automatically select portrait/landscape.
- -s<factor>
- Set a sub-sampling factor (default 1). -s1 will not
sub-sample at all, -s4 will reduce by a factor of 4.
- -D
- Produce output suitable for including in documents. This option
simply supresses the generation of a showpage command.
