OPTIONS

19       -o output
20              The image format is deduced from the output file name.  Embed %d
21              in  the  name  to  indicate  the  page  number   (for   example:
22              "page%d.png").
23
24       -p password
25              Use the specified password if the file is encrypted.
26
27       -r resolution
28              Render  the page at the specified resolution.  The default reso‐
29              lution is 72 dpi.
30
31       -R angle
32              Rotate clockwise by given number of degrees.
33
34       -a     Save the alpha channel.  The default behavior is to render  each
35              page  with a white background.  With this option, the page back‐
36              ground is transparent.  Only supported for pam  and  png  output
37              formats.

41              ignored.

44              to render and print a summary at the end.
