12
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'.
60
61
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.
