DESCRIPTION

12       vdump  turns  the  vasari  format  file in its argument to encapsulated
13       PostScript on its  stadard  output.  The  result  can  be  either  sent
14       directly  to a printer or included in any document processor which sup‐
15       ports encapsulated PostScript diagrams - eg. WordPerfect, Tex etc.  For
16       example:
17
18              example% vdump campin.v | lpr -Plaser
19
20       or
21
22              example% vdump -l -s4 -D campin.v > campin.PS
23
24       vdump  normally  outputs  portrait, you can force output to portrait or
25       landscape with the -p or -l flags.
26
27       The -a flag makes vdump select either portrait or landscape orientation
28       so as to get the largest possible image onto an A4 sheet.
29
30       vdump will dump one or three band unsigned char images only.

38
39       -s<factor>
40              Set  a sub-sampling factor (default 1).  -s1 will not sub-sample
41              at all, -s4 will reduce by a factor of 4.

44              simply supresses the generation of a showpage command.
