fd2ps accepts the following command line options
-help Prints a brief summary of all command line options.
-version
Prints the current version of fd2ps and exits.
-p The option requests portrait orientation. By default, the orientation is switched to landscape if
portrait will not fit the page. This option overrides the default.
-l This options requests landscape output.
-bwn Specifies the border width of the interface. By default this information is obtained from the .fd
file.
-eps This option requests Encapsulated PostScript instead of the plain PostScript output.
-gray This options requests all colors be converted to gray levels. By default, fd2ps outputs colors as
specified in the .fd file.
-Gf specifies a gamma factor that will be used to adjust the builtin colors in a non-linear fashion.
It can be thought as a way to brighten or dim the builtin colors: larger the gamma, brighter the
color. The default gamma is 1.0.
-dpif
This option specifies the screen resolution on which the user interface is designed. By giving a
smaller or larger dpi number than that of the screen, the output is in effect being enlarged or
shrunk. This flag does not affect text size. The default DPI is 85. If the .fd file is specified
in device independent unit, this flag does not have effect.
-rgbfile
This option specifies the path to the X color database (rgb.txt) for use in parsing XPM colornames.
The default is /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt. Environment variable RGBFile can be used to change the
default.
-papername
This option specifies the paper name, such as A4, Letter etc. The output PostScript will always
center on the page. Use name all to get a list of the known paper names and sizes. The default is
US Letter unless environment variable PAPER is set to one of the known paper names.
-pwf Specifies the paper width, in inches.
-phf Specifies the paper height, in inches.
-verbose
This option specifies verbose output, i.e., comments in the output PostScript file. Most useful for
debugging the fd2ps program.
