It first tries to find the user's private config file, ~/.xpdfrc. If that doesn't exist, it looks for a system-wide config file, typically /usr/local/etc/xpdfrc (but this location can be changed when pdffonts is built). See the .BR xpdfrc (5) man page for details. .SH OPTIONS Many of the following options can be set with configuration file commands. These are listed in square brackets with the description of the corresponding command line option. .TP .BI \-f " number" Specifies the first page to analyze. .TP .B \-loc Shows additional information on the location of the font that will be used when the PDF file is rasterized (with xpdf, pdftoppm, etc.). .TP .B \-locPS Shows additional information on the location of the font that will be used when the PDF file is converted to PostScript (with pdftops). .TP .BI \-l " number" Specifies the last page to analyze. .TP .BI \-opw " password" Specify the owner password for the PDF file. Providing this will bypass all security restrictions. .TP .BI \-upw " password" Specify the user password for the PDF file. .TP .BI \-cfg " config-file" Read .I config-file in place of ~/.xpdfrc or the system-wide config file. .TP .B \-v Print copyright and version information. .TP .B \-h Print usage information. .RB ( \-help and .B \-\-help are equivalent.) .SH EXIT CODES The Xpdf tools use the following exit codes: .TP 0 No error. .TP 1 Error opening a PDF file. .TP 2 Error opening an output file. .TP 3 Error related to PDF permissions. .TP 99 Other error. .SH AUTHOR The pdffonts software and documentation are copyright 1996-2017 Glyph & Cog, LLC. .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR xpdf (1), .BR pdftops (1), .BR pdftotext (1), .BR pdftohtml (1), .BR pdfinfo (1), .BR pdfdetach (1), .BR pdftoppm (1), .BR pdftopng (1), .BR pdfimages (1), .BR xpdfrc (5) .br .B http://www.xpdfreader.com/
