6 xpdfrc - configuration file for Xpdf tools (version 4.02)
7
9 All of the Xpdf tools read a single configuration file. If you have a
10 .xpdfrc file in your home directory, it will be read. Otherwise, a
11 system-wide configuration file will be read from /usr/local/etc/xpdfrc,
12 if it exists. (This is its default location; depending on build
13 options, it may be placed elsewhere.) On Win32 systems, the xpdfrc
14 file should be placed in the same directory as the executables.
15 The xpdfrc file consists of a series of configuration options, one per
17 line. Blank lines and lines starting with a ´#' (comments) are
18 ignored.
19 Arguments may be quoted, using "double-quote" characters, e.g., for
21 file names that contain spaces.
22 The following sections list all of the configuration options, sorted
24 into functional groups. There is an examples section at the end.
25
27 include config-file
28 Includes the specified config file. The effect of this is
29 equivalent to inserting the contents of config-file directly
30 into the parent config file in place of the include command.
31 Config files can be nested arbitrarily deeply.
32
34 fontFile PDF-font-name font-file
35 Maps a PDF font, PDF-font-name, to a font for display or Post‐
36 Script output. The font file, font-file, can be any type
37 allowed in a PDF file. This command can be used for 8-bit or
38 16-bit (CID) fonts.
39 fontDir dir
41 Specifies a search directory for font files. There can be mul‐
42 tiple fontDir commands; all of the specified directories will be
43 searched in order. The font files can be Type 1 (.pfa or .pfb)
44 or TrueType (.ttf or .ttc); other files in the directory will be
45 ignored. The font file name (not including the extension) must
46 exactly match the PDF font name. This search is performed if
47 the font name doesn't match any of the fonts declared with the
48 fontFile command. There are no default fontDir directories.
49 fontFileCC registry-ordering font-file
51 Maps the registry-ordering character collection to a font for
52 display or PostScript output. This mapping is used if the font
53 name doesn't match any of the fonts declared with the fontFile,
54 fontDir, psResidentFont16, or psResidentFontCC commands.
55
57 psFontPassthrough yes | no
58 If set to "yes", pass 8-bit font names through to the PostScript
59 output without substitution. Fonts which are not embedded in
60 the PDF file are expected to be available on the printer. This
61 defaults to "no".
62 psResidentFont PDF-font-name PS-font-name
64 When the 8-bit font PDF-font-name is used (without embedding) in
65 a PDF file, it will be translated to the PostScript font
66 PS-font-name, which is assumed to be resident in the printer.
67 Typically, PDF-font-name and PS-font-name are the same. By
68 default, only the Base-14 fonts are assumed to be resident.
69 psResidentFont16 PDF-font-name wMode PS-font-name encoding
71 When the 16-bit (CID) font PDF-font-name with writing mode wMode
72 is used (without embedding) in a PDF file, it will be translated
73 to the PostScript font PS-font-name, which is assumed to be res‐
74 ident in the printer. The writing mode must be either ´H' for
75 horizontal or ´V' for vertical. The resident font is assumed to
76 use the specified encoding (which must have been defined with
77 the unicodeMap command).
78 psResidentFontCC registry-ordering wMode PS-font-name encoding
80 When a 16-bit (CID) font using the registry-ordering character
81 collection and wMode writing mode is used (without embedding) in
82 a PDF file, the PostScript font, PS-font-name, is substituted
83 for it. The substituted font is assumed to be resident in the
84 printer. The writing mode must be either ´H' for horizontal or
85 ´V' for vertical. The resident font is assumed to use the spec‐
86 ified encoding (which must have been defined with the unicodeMap
87 command).
88 psEmbedType1Fonts yes | no
90 If set to "no", prevents embedding of Type 1 fonts in generated
91 PostScript. This defaults to "yes".
92 psEmbedTrueTypeFonts yes | no
94 If set to "no", prevents embedding of TrueType fonts in gener‐
95 ated PostScript. This defaults to "yes".
96 psEmbedCIDTrueTypeFonts yes | no
98 If set to "no", prevents embedding of CID TrueType fonts in gen‐
99 erated PostScript. For Level 3 PostScript, this generates a CID
100 font, for lower levels it generates a non-CID composite font.
101 This defaults to "yes".
102 psEmbedCIDPostScriptFonts yes | no
104 If set to "no", prevents embedding of CID PostScript fonts in
105 generated PostScript. For Level 3 PostScript, this generates a
106 CID font, for lower levels it generates a non-CID composite
107 font. This defaults to "yes".
108
110 psPaperSize width(pts) height(pts)
111 Sets the paper size for PostScript output. The width and height
112 parameters give the paper size in PostScript points (1 point =
113 1/72 inch).
114 psPaperSize letter | legal | A4 | A3 | match
116 Sets the paper size for PostScript output to a standard size.
117 The default paper size is set when xpdf and pdftops are built,
118 typically to "letter" or "A4". This can also be set to "match",
119 which will set the paper size to match the size specified in the
120 PDF file.
121 psImageableArea llx lly urx ury
123 Sets the imageable area for PostScript output. The four inte‐
124 gers are the coordinates of the lower-left and upper-right cor‐
125 ners of the imageable region, specified in points (with the ori‐
126 gin being the lower-left corner of the paper). This defaults to
127 the full paper size; the psPaperSize option will reset the
128 imageable area coordinates.
129 psCrop yes | no
131 If set to "yes", PostScript output is cropped to the CropBox
132 specified in the PDF file; otherwise no cropping is done. This
133 defaults to "yes".
134 psUseCropBoxAsPage yes | no
136 If set to "yes", PostScript output treats the CropBox as the
137 page size. By default, this is "no", and the MediaBox is used
138 as the page size.
139 psExpandSmaller yes | no
141 If set to "yes", PDF pages smaller than the PostScript imageable
142 area are expanded to fill the imageable area. Otherwise, no
143 scaling is done on smaller pages. This defaults to "no".
144 psShrinkLarger yes | no
146 If set to yes, PDF pages larger than the PostScript imageable
147 area are shrunk to fit the imageable area. Otherwise, no scal‐
148 ing is done on larger pages. This defaults to "yes".
149 psCenter yes | no
151 If set to yes, PDF pages smaller than the PostScript imageable
152 area (after any scaling) are centered in the imageable area.
153 Otherwise, they are aligned at the lower-left corner of the
154 imageable area. This defaults to "yes".
155 psDuplex yes | no
157 If set to "yes", the generated PostScript will set the "Duplex"
158 pagedevice entry. This tells duplex-capable printers to enable
159 duplexing. This defaults to "no".
160 psLevel level1 | level1sep | level2 | level2gray | level2sep | level3 |
162 level3gray | level3Sep
163 Sets the PostScript level to generate. This defaults to
164 "level2".
165 psPreload yes | no
167 If set to "yes", PDF forms are converted to PS procedures, and
168 image data is preloaded. This uses more memory in the Post‐
169 Script interpreter, but generates significantly smaller PS files
170 in situations where, e.g., the same image is drawn on every page
171 of a long document. This defaults to "no".
172 psOPI yes | no
174 If set to "yes", generates PostScript OPI comments for all
175 images and forms which have OPI information. This option is
176 only available if the Xpdf tools were compiled with OPI support.
177 This defaults to "no".
178 psASCIIHex yes | no
180 If set to "yes", the ASCIIHexEncode filter will be used instead
181 of ASCII85Encode for binary data. This defaults to "no".
182 psLZW yes | no
184 If set to "yes", the LZWEncode filter will be used for lossless
185 compression in PostScript output; if set to "no", the RunLength‐
186 Encode filter will be used instead. LZW generates better com‐
187 pression (smaller PS files), but may not be supported by some
188 printers. This defaults to "yes".
189 psUncompressPreloadedImages yes | no
191 If set to "yes", all preloaded images in PS files will uncom‐
192 pressed. If set to "no", the original compressed images will be
193 used when possible. The "yes" setting is useful to work around
194 certain buggy PostScript interpreters. This defaults to "no".
195 psMinLineWidth float
197 Set the minimum line width, in points, for PostScript output.
198 The default value is 0 (no minimum).
199 psRasterResolution float
201 Set the resolution (in dpi) for rasterized pages in PostScript
202 output. (Pdftops will rasterize pages which use transparency.)
203 This defaults to 300.
204 psRasterMono yes | no
206 If set to "yes", rasterized pages in PS files will be monochrome
207 (8-bit gray) instead of color. This defaults to "no".
208 psRasterSliceSize pixels
210 When rasterizing pages, pdftops splits the page into horizontal
211 "slices", to limit memory usage. This option sets the maximum
212 slice size, in pixels. This defaults to 20000000 (20 million).
213 psAlwaysRasterize yes | no
215 If set to "yes", all PostScript output will be rasterized. This
216 defaults to "no".
217 psNeverRasterize yes | no
219 Pdftops rasterizes an pages that use transparency (because Post‐
220 Script doesn't support transparency). If psNeverRasterize is
221 set to "yes", rasterization is disabled: pages will never be
222 rasterized, even if they contain transparency. This will likely
223 result in incorrect output for PDF files that use transparency,
224 and a warning message to that effect will be printed. This
225 defaults to "no".
226 fontDir dir
228 See the description above, in the DISPLAY FONTS section.
229
231 textEncoding encoding-name
232 Sets the encoding to use for text output. (This can be overrid‐
233 den with the "-enc" switch on the command line.) The encod‐
234 ing-name must be defined with the unicodeMap command (see
235 above). This defaults to "Latin1".
236 textEOL unix | dos | mac
238 Sets the end-of-line convention to use for text output. The
239 options are:
240 unix = LF
242 dos = CR+LF
243 mac = CR
244 (This can be overridden with the "-eol" switch on the command
246 line.) The default value is based on the OS where xpdf and
247 pdftotext were built.
248 textPageBreaks yes | no
250 If set to "yes", text extraction will insert page breaks (form
251 feed characters) between pages. This defaults to "yes".
252 textKeepTinyChars yes | no
254 If set to "yes", text extraction will keep all characters. If
255 set to "no", text extraction will discard tiny (smaller than 3
256 point) characters after the first 50000 per page, avoiding
257 extremely slow run times for PDF files that use special fonts to
258 do shading or cross-hatching. This defaults to "yes".
259 nameToUnicode map-file
261 Specifies a file with the mapping from character names to Uni‐
262 code. This is used to handle PDF fonts that have valid encod‐
263 ings but no ToUnicode entry. Each line of a nameToUnicode file
264 looks like this:
265 hex-string name
267 The hex-string is the Unicode (UCS-2) character index, and name
269 is the corresponding character name. Multiple nameToUnicode
270 files can be used; if a character name is given more than once,
271 the code in the last specified file is used. There is a built-
272 in default nameToUnicode table with all of Adobe's standard
273 character names.
274 cidToUnicode registry-ordering map-file
276 Specifies the file with the mapping from character collection to
277 Unicode. Each line of a cidToUnicode file represents one char‐
278 acter:
279 hex-string
281 The hex-string is the Unicode (UCS-2) index for that character.
283 The first line maps CID 0, the second line CID 1, etc. File
284 size is determined by size of the character collection. Only
285 one file is allowed per character collection; the last specified
286 file is used. There are no built-in cidToUnicode mappings.
287 unicodeToUnicode font-name-substring map-file
289 This is used to work around PDF fonts which have incorrect Uni‐
290 code information. It specifies a file which maps from the given
291 (incorrect) Unicode indexes to the correct ones. The mapping
292 will be used for any font whose name contains font-name-sub‐
293 string. Each line of a unicodeToUnicode file represents one
294 Unicode character:
295 in-hex out-hex1 out-hex2 ...
297 The in-hex field is an input (incorrect) Unicode index, and the
299 rest of the fields are one or more output (correct) Unicode
300 indexes. Each occurrence of in-hex will be converted to the
301 specified output sequence.
302 unicodeRemapping remap-file
304 Remap Unicode characters when doing text extraction. This spec‐
305 ifies a file that maps from a particular Unicode index to zero
306 or more replacement Unicode indexes. Each line of the remap
307 file represents one Unicode character:
308 in-hex out-hex1 out-hex2 ...
310 Any Unicode characters not listed will be left unchanged. This
312 function is typically used to remap things like non-breaking
313 spaces, soft hyphens, ligatures, etc.
314 unicodeMap encoding-name map-file
316 Specifies the file with mapping from Unicode to encoding-name.
317 These encodings are used for text output (see below). Each line
318 of a unicodeMap file represents a range of one or more Unicode
319 characters which maps linearly to a range in the output encod‐
320 ing:
321 in-start-hex in-end-hex out-start-hex
323 Entries for single characters can be abbreviated to:
325 in-hex out-hex
327 The in-start-hex and in-end-hex fields (or the single in-hex
329 field) specify the Unicode range. The out-start-hex field (or
330 the out-hex field) specifies the start of the output encoding
331 range. The length of the out-start-hex (or out-hex) string
332 determines the length of the output characters (e.g., UTF-8 uses
333 different numbers of bytes to represent characters in different
334 ranges). Entries must be given in increasing Unicode order.
335 Only one file is allowed per encoding; the last specified file
336 is used. The Latin1, ASCII7, Symbol, ZapfDingbats, UTF-8, and
337 UCS-2 encodings are predefined.
338 cMapDir registry-ordering dir
340 Specifies a search directory, dir, for CMaps for the reg‐
341 istry-ordering character collection. There can be multiple
342 directories for a particular collection. There are no default
343 CMap directories.
344 toUnicodeDir dir
346 Specifies a search directory, dir, for ToUnicode CMaps. There
347 can be multiple ToUnicode directories. There are no default
348 ToUnicode directories.
349 mapNumericCharNames yes | no
351 If set to "yes", the Xpdf tools will attempt to map various
352 numeric character names sometimes used in font subsets. In some
353 cases this leads to usable text, and in other cases it leads to
354 gibberish -- there is no way for Xpdf to tell. This defaults to
355 "yes".
356 mapUnknownCharNames yes | no
358 If set to "yes", and mapNumericCharNames is set to "no", the
359 Xpdf tools will apply a simple pass-through mapping (Unicode
360 index = character code) for all unrecognized glyph names. (For
361 CID fonts, setting mapNumericCharNames to "no" is unnecessary.)
362 In some cases, this leads to usable text, and in other cases it
363 leads to gibberish -- there is no way for Xpdf to tell. This
364 defaults to "no".
365 mapExtTrueTypeFontsViaUnicode yes | no
367 When rasterizing text using an external TrueType font, there are
368 two options for handling character codes. If mapExtTrueType‐
369 FontsViaUnicode is set to "yes", Xpdf will use the font encod‐
370 ing/ToUnicode info to map character codes to Unicode, and then
371 use the font's Unicode cmap to map Unicode to GIDs. If mapExt‐
372 TrueTypeFontsViaUnicode is set to "no", Xpdf will assume the
373 character codes are GIDs (i.e., use an identity mapping). This
374 defaults to "yes".
375 dropFont font-name
377 Drop all text drawn in the specified font. To drop text drawn
378 in unnamed fonts, use:
379 dropFont ""
381 There can be any number of dropFont commands.
383
385 enableFreeType yes | no
386 Enables or disables use of FreeType (a TrueType / Type 1 font
387 rasterizer). This is only relevant if the Xpdf tools were built
388 with FreeType support. ("enableFreeType" replaces the old
389 "freetypeControl" option.) This option defaults to "yes".
390 disableFreeTypeHinting yes | no
392 If this is set to "yes", FreeType hinting will be forced off.
393 This option defaults to "no".
394 antialias yes | no
396 Enables or disables font anti-aliasing in the PDF rasterizer.
397 This option affects all font rasterizers. ("antialias" replaces
398 the anti-aliasing control provided by the old "t1libControl" and
399 "freetypeControl" options.) This default to "yes".
400 vectorAntialias yes | no
402 Enables or disables anti-aliasing of vector graphics in the PDF
403 rasterizer. This defaults to "yes".
404 antialiasPrinting yes | no
406 If this is "yes", bitmaps sent to the printer will be
407 antialiased (according to the "antialias" and "vectorAntialias"
408 settings). If this is "no", printed bitmaps will not be
409 antialiased. This defaults to "no".
410 strokeAdjust yes | no | cad
412 Sets the stroke adjustment mode. If set to "no", no stroke
413 adjustment will be done. If set to "yes", normal stroke adjust‐
414 ment will be done: horizontal and vertical lines will be moved
415 by up to half a pixel to make them look cleaner when vector
416 anti-aliasing is enabled. If set to "cad", a slightly different
417 stroke adjustment algorithm will be used to ensure that lines of
418 the same original width will always have the same adjusted width
419 (at the expense of allowing gaps and overlaps between adjacent
420 lines). This defaults to "yes".
421 forceAccurateTiling yes | no
423 If this is set to "yes", the TilingType is forced to 2 (no dis‐
424 tortion) for all tiling patterns, regardless of the setting in
425 the pattern dictionary. This defaults to "no".
426 screenType dispersed | clustered | stochasticClustered
428 Sets the halftone screen type, which will be used when generat‐
429 ing a monochrome (1-bit) bitmap. The three options are dis‐
430 persed-dot dithering, clustered-dot dithering (with a round dot
431 and 45-degree screen angle), and stochastic clustered-dot
432 dithering. By default, "stochasticClustered" is used for reso‐
433 lutions of 300 dpi and higher, and "dispersed" is used for reso‐
434 lutions lower then 300 dpi.
435 screenSize integer
437 Sets the size of the (square) halftone screen threshold matrix.
438 By default, this is 4 for dispersed-dot dithering, 10 for clus‐
439 tered-dot dithering, and 100 for stochastic clustered-dot
440 dithering.
441 screenDotRadius integer
443 Sets the halftone screen dot radius. This is only used when
444 screenType is set to stochasticClustered, and it defaults to 2.
445 In clustered-dot mode, the dot radius is half of the screen
446 size. Dispersed-dot dithering doesn't have a dot radius.
447 screenGamma float
449 Sets the halftone screen gamma correction parameter. Gamma val‐
450 ues greater than 1 make the output brighter; gamma values less
451 than 1 make it darker. The default value is 1.
452 screenBlackThreshold float
454 When halftoning, all values below this threshold are forced to
455 solid black. This parameter is a floating point value between 0
456 (black) and 1 (white). The default value is 0.
457 screenWhiteThreshold float
459 When halftoning, all values above this threshold are forced to
460 solid white. This parameter is a floating point value between 0
461 (black) and 1 (white). The default value is 1.
462 minLineWidth float
464 Set the minimum line width, in device pixels. This affects the
465 rasterizer only, not the PostScript converter (except when it
466 uses rasterization to handle transparency). The default value
467 is 0 (no minimum).
468 enablePathSimplification yes | no
470 If set to "yes", simplify paths by removing points where it
471 won't make a significant difference to the shape. The default
472 value is "no".
473 overprintPreview yes | no
475 If set to "yes", generate overprint preview output, honoring the
476 OP/op/OPM settings in the PDF file. Ignored for non-CMYK out‐
477 put. The default value is "no".
478
480 These settings only apply to the Xpdf GUI PDF viewer.
481 initialZoom percentage | page | width
483 Sets the initial zoom factor. A number specifies a zoom per‐
484 centage, where 100 means 72 dpi. You may also specify ´page',
485 to fit the page to the window size, or ´width', to fit the page
486 width to the window width.
487 defaultFitZoom percentage
489 If xpdf is started with fit-page or fit-width zoom and no window
490 geometry, it will calculate a desired window size based on the
491 PDF page size and this defaultFitZoom value. I.e., the window
492 size will be chosen such that exactly one page will fit in the
493 window at this zoom factor (which must be a percentage). The
494 default value is based on the screen resolution.
495 initialDisplayMode single | continuous | sideBySideSingle | sideBySide‐
497 Continuous | horizontalContinuous
498 Sets the initial display mode. The default setting is "continu‐
499 ous".
500 initialToolbarState yes | no
502 If set to "yes", xpdf opens with the toolbar visible. If set to
503 "no", xpdf opens with the toolbar hidden. The default is "yes".
504 initialSidebarState yes | no
506 If set to "yes", xpdf opens with the sidebar (tabs, outline,
507 etc.) visible. If set to "no", xpdf opens with the sidebar
508 collapsed. The default is "yes".
509 initialSelectMode block | linear
511 Sets the initial selection mode. The default setting is "lin‐
512 ear".
513 paperColor color
515 Set the "paper color", i.e., the background of the page display.
516 The color can be #RRGGBB (hexadecimal) or a named color. This
517 option will not work well with PDF files that do things like
518 filling in white behind the text.
519 matteColor color
521 Set the matte color, i.e., the color used for background outside
522 the actual page area. The color can be #RRGGBB (hexadecimal) or
523 a named color.
524 fullScreenMatteColor color
526 Set the matte color for full-screen mode. The color can be
527 #RRGGBB (hexadecimal) or a named color.
528 reverseVideoInvertImages yes | no
530 If set to "no", xpdf's reverse-video mode inverts text and vec‐
531 tor graphic content, but not images. If set to "yes", xpdf
532 inverts images as well. The default is "no".
533 popupMenuCmd title command ...
535 Add a command to the popup menu. Title is the text to be dis‐
536 played in the menu. Command is an Xpdf command (see the COM‐
537 MANDS section of the xpdf(1) man page for details). Multiple
538 commands are separated by whitespace.
539 maxTileWidth pixels
541 Set the maximum width of tiles to be used by xpdf when rasteriz‐
542 ing pages. This defaults to 1500.
543 maxTileHeight pixels
545 Set the maximum height of tiles to be used by xpdf when raster‐
546 izing pages. This defaults to 1500.
547 tileCacheSize tiles
549 Set the maximum number of tiles to be cached by xpdf when ras‐
550 terizing pages. This defaults to 10.
551 workerThreads numThreads
553 Set the number of worker threads to be used by xpdf when raster‐
554 izing pages. This defaults to 1.
555 launchCommand command
557 Sets the command executed when you click on a "launch"-type
558 link. The intent is for the command to be a program/script
559 which determines the file type and runs the appropriate viewer.
560 The command line will consist of the file to be launched, fol‐
561 lowed by any parameters specified with the link. Do not use
562 "%s" in "command". By default, this is unset, and Xpdf will
563 simply try to execute the file (after prompting the user).
564 movieCommand command
566 Sets the command executed when you click on a movie annotation.
567 The string "%s" will be replaced with the movie file name. This
568 has no default value.
569 defaultPrinter printer
571 Sets the default printer used in the viewer's print dialog.
572 bind modifiers-key context command ...
574 Add a key or mouse button binding. Modifiers can be zero or
575 more of:
576 shift-
578 ctrl-
579 alt-
580 Key can be a regular ASCII character, or any one of:
582 space
584 tab
585 return
586 enter
587 backspace
588 esc
589 insert
590 delete
591 home
592 end

600 Context is either "any" or a comma-separated combination of:
602 fullScreen / window (full screen mode on/off)
604 continuous / singlePage (continuous mode on/off)
605 overLink / offLink (mouse over link or not)
606 scrLockOn / scrLockOff (scroll lock on/off)
607 The context string can include only one of each pair in the
609 above list.
610 Command is an Xpdf command (see the COMMANDS section of the
612 xpdf(1) man page for details). Multiple commands are separated
613 by whitespace.
614 The bind command replaces any existing binding, but only if it
616 was defined for the exact same modifiers, key, and context. All
617 tokens (modifiers, key, context, commands) are case-sensitive.
618 Example key bindings:
620 # bind ctrl-a in any context to the nextPage
622 # command
623 bind ctrl-a any nextPage
624 # bind uppercase B, when in continuous mode
626 # with scroll lock on, to the reload command
627 # followed by the prevPage command
628 bind B continuous,scrLockOn reload prevPage
629 See the xpdf(1) man page for more examples.
631 unbind modifiers-key context
633 Removes a key binding established with the bind command. This
634 is most useful to remove default key bindings before establish‐
635 ing new ones (e.g., if the default key binding is given for
636 "any" context, and you want to create new key bindings for mul‐
637 tiple contexts).
638 tabStateFile path
640 Sets the file used by the loadTabState and saveTabState commands
641 (see the xpdf(1) man page for more information).
642
644 drawAnnotations yes | no
645 If set to "no", annotations will not be drawn or printed. The
646 default value is "yes".
647 drawFormFields yes | no
649 If set to "no", form fields will not be drawn or printed. The
650 default value is "yes".
651 enableXFA yes | no
653 If set to "yes", an XFA form (if present) will be rendered in
654 place of an AcroForm. If "no", an XFA form will never be ren‐
655 dered. This defaults to "yes".
656 printCommands yes | no
658 If set to "yes", drawing commands are printed as they're exe‐
659 cuted (useful for debugging). This defaults to "no".
660 errQuiet yes | no
662 If set to "yes", this suppresses all error and warning messages
663 from all of the Xpdf tools. This defaults to "no".
