NAME
xpdf - Portable Document Format (PDF) file viewer for X (version 3.02)
SYNOPSIS
xpdf
[options]
[PDF-file
[page | +dest]]
zxpdf
[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. (This is only useful with PDF files that provide
named destination targets.)
You can also start xpdf without opening any files:
xpdf
Compressed files (gz and bz2) may be viewed using the command:
zxpdf file.pdf.gz
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, /etc/xpdf/xpdfrc. 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.)
[X resource: xpdf.geometry]
-title title
Set the window title. By default, the title will be "xpdf: foo.pdf".
[X resource: xpdf.title]
-cmap
Install a private colormap. This is ignored on TrueColor visuals.
[X resource: 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.
[X resource: xpdf.rgbCubeSize]
-rv
Set reverse video mode. This reverses the colors of everything except
images. It may not always produce great results for PDF files which
do weird things with color. This also causes the paper color to
default to black.
[X resource: xpdf.reverseVideo]
-papercolor color
Set the "paper color", i.e., the background of the page display. This
will not work too well with PDF files that do things like filling in
white behind the text.
[X resource: xpdf.paperColor]
-mattecolor color
Set the matte color, i.e., the color used for background outside the
actual page area. (There is a separate setting,
xpdf.fullScreenMatteColor, for full-screen mode.)
[X resource: xpdf.matteColor]
-z zoom
Set the initial zoom factor. A number specifies a zoom percentage,
where 100 means 72 dpi.You may also specify 'page', to fit the page
to the window size, or 'width', to fit the page width to the window
width.
[config file: initialZoom; or X resource: xpdf.initialZoom]
-cont
Start in continuous view mode, i.e., with one vertical scroll bar for
the whole document.
[config file: continuousView]
-t1lib yes | no
Enable or disable t1lib (a Type 1 font rasterizer). This defaults to
"yes".
[config file: enableT1lib]
-freetype yes | no
Enable or disable FreeType (a TrueType / Type 1 font rasterizer).
This defaults to "yes".
[config file: enableFreeType]
-aa yes | no
Enable or disable font anti-aliasing. This defaults to "yes".
[config file: antialias]
-aaVector yes | no
Enable or disable vector anti-aliasing. This defaults to "yes".
[config file: vectorAntialias]
-ps PS-file
Set the default file name for PostScript output (i.e., the name which
will appear in the print dialog). This can also be of the form
[config file: psFile]
-paper size
Set the paper size to one of "letter", "legal", "A4", or "A3". This
can also be set to "match", which will set the paper size to match the
size specified in the PDF file.
[config file: psPaperSize]
-paperw size
Set the paper width, in points.
[config file: psPaperSize]
-paperh size
Set the paper height, in points.
[config file: psPaperSize]
-level1
Generate Level 1 PostScript. The resulting PostScript files will be
significantly larger (if they contain images), but will print on Level
1 printers. This also converts all images to black and white.
[config file: psLevel]
-enc encoding-name
Sets the encoding to use for text output. The
encoding-name
must be defined with the unicodeMap command (see
xpdfrc(5)).
This defaults to "Latin1" (which is a built-in encoding).
[config file: textEncoding]
-eol unix | dos | mac
Sets the end-of-line convention to use for text output.
[config file: textEOL]
-opw password
Specify the owner password for the PDF file. Providing this will
bypass all security restrictions.
-upw password
Specify the user password for the PDF file.
-fullscreen
Open xpdf in full-screen mode, useful for presentations.
-remote name
Start/contact xpdf remote server with specified name (see the
REMOTE SERVER MODE
section below).
-exec command
Execute a command (see the
COMMANDS
section below) in an xpdf remote server window (with -remote only).
-reload
Reload xpdf remote server window (with -remote only).
-raise
Raise xpdf remote server window (with -remote only).
-quit
Kill xpdf remote server (with -remote only).
-cmd
Print commands as they're executed (useful for debugging).
[config file: printCommands]
-q
Don't print any messages or errors.
[config file: errQuiet]
-cfg config-file
Read
config-file
in place of ~/.xpdfrc or the system-wide config file.
-v
Print copyright and version information.
-h
Print usage information.
(-help
and
--help
are equivalent.)
Several other standard X options and resources will work as expected:
-display display
[X resource: xpdf.display]
-fg color
(-foreground
is equivalent.)
[X resource: xpdf*Foreground]
-bg color
(-background
is equivalent.)
[X resource: xpdf*Background]
-font font
(-fn
is equivalent.)
[X resource: xpdf*fontList]
The color and font options only affect the user interface elements,
not the PDF display (the 'paper').
The following X resources do not have command line option equivalents:
xpdf.toolTipEnable
Enables (if set to true) or disables (if set to false) the tool-tips
on the toolbar buttons.
xpdf.fullScreenMatteColor
Sets the matte color to be used in full-screen mode. The default
setting is "black".
CONTROLS
On-screen controls, at the bottom of the xpdf window
left/right arrow buttons
Move to the previous/next page.
double left/right arrow buttons
Move backward or forward by ten pages.
dashed left/right arrow buttons
Move backward or forward along the history path.
'Page' entry box
Move to a specific page number. Click in the box to activate it, type
the page number, then hit return.
zoom popup menu
Change the zoom factor (see the description of the -z option above).
binoculars button
Find a text string.
print button
Bring up a dialog for generating a PostScript file. The dialog has
options to set the pages to be printed and the PostScript file name.
The file name can be '-' for stdout or '|command' to pipe the
PostScript through a command, e.g., '|lpr'.
'?' button
Bring up the 'about xpdf' window.
link info
The space between the '?' and 'Quit' buttons is used to show the URL
or external file name when the mouse is over a link.
'Quit' button
Quit xpdf.
Menu
Pressing the right mouse button will post a popup menu with the
following commands:
Open...
Open a new PDF file via a file requester.
Open in new window...
Create a new window and open a new PDF file via a file requester.
Reload
Reload the current PDF file. Note that Xpdf will reload the file
automatically (on a page change or redraw) if it has changed since it
was last loaded.
Save as...
Save the current file via a file requester.
Continuous view
Toggles between single page and continuous view modes.
Rotate counterclockwise
Rotate the page 90 degrees counterclockwise.
Rotate clockwise
Rotate the page 90 degrees clockwise. The two rotate commands are
intended primarily for PDF files where the rotation isn't correctly
specified in the file.
Zoom to selection
Zoom in to the currently selected rectangle.
Close
Close the current window. If this is the only open window, the
document is closed, but the window is left open (i.e., this menu
command won't quit xpdf).
Quit
Quit xpdf.
Outline
If the PDF contains an outline (a.k.a., bookmarks), there will be an
outline pane on the left side of the window. The width of the outline
pane is adjustable with a vertical split bar via the knob near its
bottom end.
Text selection
Dragging the mouse with the left button held down will highlight an
arbitrary rectangle. Any text inside this rectangle will be copied to
the X selection buffer.
Links
Clicking on a hyperlink will jump to the link's destination. A link
to another PDF document will make xpdf load that document. A 'launch'
link to an executable program will display a dialog, and if
you click 'ok', execute the program. URL links call an external
command (see the
WEB BROWSERS
section below).
Panning
Dragging the mouse with the middle button held down pans the window.

WEB BROWSERS
If you want to run xpdf automatically from netscape or mosaic (and
probably other browsers) when you click on a link to a PDF file, you
need to edit (or create) the files
.mime.types
and
.mailcap
in your home directory. In
.mime.types
add the line:
application/pdf pdf
In
.mailcap
add the lines:
# Use xpdf to view PDF files.
application/pdf; xpdf -q %s
Make sure that xpdf is on your executable search path.
When you click on a URL link in a PDF file, xpdf will execute the
command specified by the urlCommand config file option, replacing an
occurrence of '%s' with the URL. For example, to call netscape with
the URL, add this line to your config file:
urlCommand "netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)'"
COMMANDS
Xpdf's key and mouse bindings are user-configurable, using the bind and
unbind options in the config file (see
xpdfrc(5)).
The bind command allows you to bind a key or mouse button to a
sequence of one or more commands.

longer available, but the following bindings are equivalent:
bind h any scrollLeft(16)
bind l any scrollRight(16)
bind k any scrollUp(16)
bind j any scrollDown(16)
REMOTE SERVER MODE
Xpdf can be started in remote server mode by specifying a server name
(in addition to the file name and page number). For example:
xpdf -remote myServer file.pdf
If there is currently no xpdf running in server mode with the name 'myServer',
a new xpdf window will be opened. If another command:
xpdf -remote myServer another.pdf 9
is issued, a new copy of xpdf will not be started. Instead, the first
xpdf (the server) will load
another.pdf
and display page nine. If the file name is the same:
xpdf -remote myServer another.pdf 4
the xpdf server will simply display the specified page.
The -raise option tells the server to raise its window; it can be
specified with or without a file name and page number.
The -quit option tells the server to close its window and exit.
EXIT CODES
The Xpdf tools use the following exit codes:
0
No error.
1
Error opening a PDF file.
2
Error opening an output file.
3
Error related to PDF permissions.
99
Other error.
