pdfopt \- Ghostscript PDF Optimizer

.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
6 |
\fBpdfopt\fR [ \fIoptions\fR ] \fIinput.pdf output.pdf\fR
|
|
|
7 |
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
8 |
\fBpdfopt\fR uses \fBgs\fR(1) to convert the Adobe \fBPortable Document
|
|
|
9 |
Format\fR (PDF) file "input.pdf" to a so-called optimized form in
|
|
|
10 |
"output.pdf". Optimization puts the elements of the file into a more linear
|
|
|
11 |
order and adds "hint" pointers, allowing Adobe's Acrobat(TM) products to
|
|
|
12 |
display individual pages of the file more quickly when accessing the file
|
|
|
13 |
through a network.
|
|
|
14 |
.PP
|
|
|
15 |
Note: input.pdf and output.pdf must not be the same. If they are, the file
|
|
|
16 |
will probably be destroyed. \fBpdfopt\fR currently does not check for this.
|
|
|
17 |
.SH FILES
|
|
|
18 |
Run "\fBgs -h\fR" to find the location of Ghostscript documentation on your
|
|
|
19 |
system, from which you can get more details.
