A summary of options is included below.
-h, --help
Display help message.
-ffmt,--formatfmt
Set output format. The following values of fmt are supported:
pgf PGF/TikZ. Default.
pstricks or pst
Use PSTricks.
tikz TikZ format.
-tmode,--texmodemode
Text mode. Specify how text is converted.
verbatim
Text is displayed with all special TeX chars escaped (default).
math Output all text in math mode $$.
raw Output text without any processing.
Note that you can locally override the text mode by assigning a special texlbl attribute to a
graph element, or by using the texmode attribute.
-s, --straightedges
Draw edges using straight lines. Graphviz uses bezier curves to draw straight edges. Use this
option to force the use of line to operations instead of curves. Does not work in duplicate mode.
-ofilename,--outputfilename
Write output to file.
-d, --duplicate
Duplicate the xdot output. Uses the drawing information embedded in the xdot output to draw nodes
and edges.
--templatefilename
Use template from file. See the HTML documentation for more details.
-V, --version
Print version information and exit.
-w, --switchdraworder
Switch drawing order of nodes and edges. By default edges are drawn before nodes.
-c, --crop
Use preview.sty to crop the graph. Currently only implemented for the PGF/TikZ backend.
--figonly
Output the graph without a document preamble. Useful if the graph is to be included in a master
document.
--codeonly
Output only the drawing commands, without wrapping it in a tikzpicture or pspicture environment.
Useful when used with the dot2texi package.
--preproc
Preprocess the graph through LaTeX using the preview package. Will generate a new dot file where
the height and widths of nodes and edge labels are set based on the results from preview.
--cache
Enables output caching. dot2tex will check if the input graph has been processed before. If it
has not changed the graph will not be converted.
--autosize
Preprocess the graph and run Graphviz on the output. Equivalent to:
dot2tex --preproc dot-file | dot2tex
--progprogram
Set graph layout program to use when the input is in plain dot format. Allowed values: dot
(default), neato, circo, fdp, twopi.
--usepdflatex
Use pdflatex(1) instead of latex(1) for preprocessing the graph.
--nominsize
Ignore minimum node sizes during preprocessing.
--valignmodemode
Vertical alignment of node labels, where mode can have the values:
center Labels are placed in the middle of the node (default).
dot Use the coordinate given by the xdot output from Graphviz.
--alignstrstr
Used to pass a default alignment string to the PSTricks \rput command:
\rput[alignstr] ...
Only works for the PSTricks format. PGF/TikZ users can instead pass an anchor=... style using the
graphstyle option.
--tikzedgelabels
Bypass Graphviz' edge label placement and use PGF/TikZ instead (tikz and pgf formats only).
--styleonly
Use TikZ only styles when drawing nodes. No draw or shape option is added (tikz format only).
--nodeoptionstikzoptions
Wrap node code in a scope environment with tikzoptions as parameter (tikz format only).
--edgeoptionstikzoptions
Wrap edge code in a scope environment with tikzoptions as parameter (tikz format only).
--debug
Write detailed debug information to the file dot2tex.log in the current directory.
--pgf118
Generate code compatible with PGF 1.18 and earlier.
The following options are used by the output templates.
-eencoding,--encodingencoding
Set text encoding. Supported encodings are utf8 and latin1.
--docpreambleTeXcode
Insert TeX code in the document preamble.
--figpreambleTeXcode
Insert TeX code in the figure preamble.
--figpostambleTeXcode
Insert TeX code in the figure postamble.
--graphstylestyle
Sets the <<graphstyle>> tag.
--marginmargin
Set margin around the graph when using preview.sty. margin must be a valid TeX unit. By default
margin is set to 0pt.
