DESCRIPTION

14       ipetoipe converts between the various Ipe file formats.
15
16
17       -pdf   convert to PDF format
18
19       -eps   convert to EPS (encapsulated Postscript) format
20
21       -ps    convert to Postscript format
22
23       -xml   convert to XML format
24
25       -export
26              do not include Ipe markup in the output file.
27              Warning: this means that Ipe  will  not  be  able  to  read  the
28              resulting output file.
29
30       -from and -to
31              restrict  exporting  to PDF to this page range.  This only works
32              in conjunction with the -export option.
33
34       -noshading
35              do not shade the background of PDF output (if a shading has been
36              defined in the document's style sheet).
37
38       -lastview
39              create  a Postscript/PDF page only for the last view of each Ipe
40              page.  This is often convenient for making handouts  for  slides
41              used in a presentation.
42
43       -runlatex
44              run  Latex even for XML output. This has the effect of including
45              the dimensions of each text object in the XML file.
46
47       -nocolor
48              do not use any color commands in  Postscript  output.   This  is
49              useful  if  you are preparing a manuscript for publication where
50              the publisher checks that the figures are grayscale only.   Note
51              that  this  option  doesn't actually verify that the figure con‐
52              tains no color (a figure using color processed with this  option
53              will cause a Postscript error when displayed).
54
55       -styleupdate
56              update  all  style  sheets  in  the document from external style
57              sheet files in the current directory.  The external file's  name
58              must  match  the  name of the style sheet and have the extension
59              'isy'.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

63       ipetoipe respects the following environment variables:
64
65
66       IPELATEXDIR
67              the directory where ipetoipe runs Pdflatex.
68
69
70       IPEPDFLATEX
71              the name of the Pdflatex executable.  If  Pdflatex  is  on  your
72              path, the value pdflatex is sufficient.
73
74
75       TEXINPUTS
76              when  running  Pdflatex, Ipe prepends both the current directory
77              (where Ipe was started) as the directory containing the  current
78              document to the TEXINPUTS environment variable.
