| 84 | .SH CONFIGURATION FILE
|
|---|
| 85 | Pdffonts reads a configuration file at startup. It first tries to
|
|---|
| 86 | find the user's private config file, ~/.xpdfrc. If that doesn't
|
|---|
| 87 | exist, it looks for a system-wide config file, typically
|
|---|
| 88 | /usr/local/etc/xpdfrc (but this location can be changed when pdffonts
|
|---|
| 89 | is built). See the
|
|---|
| 90 | .BR xpdfrc (5)
|
|---|
| 91 | man page for details.
|
|---|
| 92 | .SH OPTIONS
|
|---|
| 93 | Many of the following options can be set with configuration file
|
|---|
| 94 | commands. These are listed in square brackets with the description of
|
|---|
| 95 | the corresponding command line option.
|
|---|
| 96 | .TP
|
|---|
| 97 | .BI \-f " number"
|
|---|
| 98 | Specifies the first page to analyze.
|

|
|---|

|
|---|
| 103 | .TP
|
|---|
| 104 | .B \-locPS
|
|---|
| 105 | Shows additional information on the location of the font that will be
