If PNG- + root is '-', the image is sent to stdout (this is probably only useful + when converting a single page). + +CONFIGURATION FILE + Pdftopng 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 /etc/xpdfrc (but this + location can be changed when pdftopng is built). See the xpdfrc(5) man + page for details. + +OPTIONS + Many of the following options can be set with configuration file com- + mands. These are listed in square brackets with the description of the + corresponding command line option. + + -f number + Specifies the first page to convert. + + -l number + Specifies the last page to convert. + + -r number + Specifies the resolution, in DPI. The default is 150 DPI. + + -mono Generate a monochrome image (instead of a color image). + + -gray Generate a grayscale image (instead of a color image). + + -alpha Generate an alpha channel in the PNG file. This is only useful + with PDF files that have been constructed with a transparent + background. The -alpha flag cannot be used with -mono. + + -rot angle + Rotate pages by 0 (the default), 90, 180, or 270 degrees. + + -freetype yes | no + Enable or disable FreeType (a TrueType / Type 1 font raster- + izer). 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] + + -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. + + -verbose + Print a status message (to stdout) before processing each page. + [config file: printStatusInfo] + + -q Don't print any messages or errors. [config file: errQuiet] + + -v Print copyright and version information. + + -h Print usage information. (-help and --help are equivalent.) + +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. + +AUTHOR + The pdftopng software and documentation are copyright 1996-2022 Glyph & + Cog, LLC. + +SEE ALSO + xpdf(1), pdftops(1), pdftotext(1), pdftohtml(1), pdfinfo(1), pdf- + fonts(1), pdfdetach(1), pdftoppm(1), pdfimages(1), xpdfrc(5) + http://www.xpdfreader.com/ + + + + 18 Apr 2022 pdftopng(1) |
