NAME

       ipetoipe - Convert between Ipe file formats

SYNOPSIS

       ipetoipe ( -pdf | -eps | -xml ) { options } input-file [ output-file ]

DESCRIPTION

       ipetoipe converts between the three Ipe file formats XML, PDF, and EPS.	 Options are:

       -pdf   convert to PDF format

       -eps   convert to EPS (encapsulated Postscript) format

       -xml   convert to XML format

       -export
	      do not include Ipe markup in the output file.
	      Warning: this means that Ipe will not be able to read the resulting output file.

       -pages from-to
	      restrict exporting to PDF to this page range.  This implies  the -export option.

       -view page-view
	      only export this single view from the document.  This implies  the -export option.

       -markedview
	      create  a Postscript/PDF page only for the marked views of marked Ipe pages. This is for instance convenient for making handouts for
	      slides used in a presentation. This implies the -export option.

       -runlatex
	      run Latex even for XML output. This has the effect of including the dimensions of each text object in the XML file.

       -nocolor
	      do not use any color commands in Postscript output.  This is useful if you are preparing a manuscript for publication where the pub-
	      lisher  checks that the figures are grayscale only.  Note that this option doesn't actually verify that the figure contains no color
	      (a figure using color processed with this option will cause a Postscript error when displayed).

       -nozip do not compress streams in PDF or Postscript output.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       ipetoipe respects the following environment variables:

       IPELATEXDIR
	      the directory where ipetoipe runs Pdflatex.

       IPEDEBUG
	      set this to 1 for debugging output.

NAME

       ps2pdf - Convert PostScript to PDF using ghostscript
       ps2pdf12 - Convert PostScript to PDF 1.2 (Acrobat 3-and-later compatible) using ghostscript
       ps2pdf13 - Convert PostScript to PDF 1.3 (Acrobat 4-and-later compatible) using ghostscript
       ps2pdf14 - Convert PostScript to PDF 1.4 (Acrobat 5-and-later compatible) using ghostscript

SYNOPSIS

       ps2pdf  [options...] {input.[e]ps|-} [output.pdf|-]
       ps2pdf12  [options...] {input.[e]ps|-} [output.pdf|-]
       ps2pdf13  [options...] {input.[e]ps|-} [output.pdf|-]
       ps2pdf14  [options...] {input.[e]ps|-} [output.pdf|-]

DESCRIPTION

       The ps2pdf scripts are work-alikes for nearly all the functionality (but not the user interface) of Adobe's Acrobat(TM) Distiller(TM) prod-
       uct: they convert PostScript files to Portable Document Format (PDF) files.

       If the output filename is not specified, the output is placed in a file of the same name with a '.pdf' extension  in  the  current  working
       directory.  Either  the	input filename or the output filename can be '-' to request reading from stdin or writing to stdout, respectively,
       when used as a filter.

       The three scripts differ as follows:

       -      ps2pdf12 will always produce PDF 1.2 output (Acrobat 3-and-later compatible).

       -      ps2pdf13 will always produce PDF 1.3 output (Acrobat 4-and-later compatible).

       -      ps2pdf14 will always produce PDF 1.4 output (Acrobat 5-and-later compatible).

       -      ps2pdf per se currently produces PDF 1.4 output.	However, this may change in the future. If you care about the compatibility  level
	      of the output, use ps2pdf12, ps2pdf13 or ps2pdf14, or use the -dCompatibility=1.x switch in the command line.

       There  are  some limitations in ps2pdf's conversion. See the HTML documentation for more information. A large number of Adobe Distiller(TM)
       parameters which can be used to control the conversion are also documented there, including instructions for  generating  PDF/X	and  PDF/A
       documents.

OPTIONS

       The ps2pdf scripts use the same options as gs(1).

EXAMPLES

       Converting a figure.ps to figure.pdf:

	      ps2pdf figure.ps

       A conversion with more specifics:

	      ps2pdf -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress figure.ps proof.pdf

       Converting as part of a pipe:

	      make_report.pl -t ps | ps2pdf -dCompatibility=1.3 - - | lpr
