dvipos

DVIPOS(1)							      ConTeXt								 DVIPOS(1)

NAME

       dvipos - compute positions in a DVI file

SYNOPSIS

       dvipos [ OPTION... ] infile[.dvi]

DESCRIPTION

       dvipos  parses  a  DVI  file  looking for pos: specials.  It currently recognizes pos:pxy, pos:pxywhd, pos:pxyplus, pos:begbox, pos:endbox,
       pos:beglines, and pos:endlines.	It then outputs the information from those specials along with information that only a	DVI  postprocessor
       could determine, such as the current x and y location.  The output looks like:
	  pospxywhd{text:54}{54}{10663sp}{8535sp}{21326sp}{34081sp}{0sp}
       and  is	suitable for including in a tex(1) or pdftex(1) auxilliary file, such as document.tuo, to be read in by the next run of the tex(1)
       or similar typesetting engine.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      print usage.

       -W, --warning
	      print warnings.

       -v, --verbose
	      print verbose output.

       -d, --debug
	      print dvitype(1) debugging data.

       -s, --smashchars
	      regard height and depth as zero.

       -o, --output=FILE
	      send all output to FILE.	Without this option, output goes to stdout.

       -b, --bbox[=FILE]
	      send bounding box to FILE (default FILE is infile.pos).

       -f, --framed[=BASE]
	      request copy of DVI file, BASE.dvi, with bounding boxes framed (default FILE is infile_frames.dvi).  See the --framesize option.

       -m, --mag=INT
	      override tex(1) magnification by INT.

       -w, --framesize=INT
	      set frame rule size by INT (default 6554 = .1pt).

       -p, --pages=X:Y
	      set page ranges from X to Y.

USAGE

       dvipos is run mostly behind the scenes by ConTeXt's texexec(1) between runs of tex(1) or pdftex(1), in order to provide information to  and
       get  information  about	positional  graphics.	These  graphics are provided by the MetaFun interface to mpost(1).  dvipos is not used (or
       needed) in PDF-output mode but is needed for DVI-output mode.  pdftex(1) starting with version 1.40 can produce position  information  even
       in DVI mode, so once the ConTeXt macros take advantage of this feature, the need for dvipos will fade.

       Until then, here is a typical use of dvipos:
	  dvipos notes.dvi
       The position information that is output is collected by texexec(1) to include in the notes.tuo auxilliary file to use in the next run.

EXAMPLES

       Extract positions from doc.dvi, with output to doc.loc:
	      dvipos -o doc.loc doc.dvi

       Same as above, but also send bbox information to doc.pos:
	      dvipos -b -o doc.loc doc.dvi

       Instead send bbox information to /tmp/debug.pos:
	      dvipos -b=/tmp/debug.pos -o doc.loc doc.dvi

SEE ALSO

       dvips(1), dvitype(1), mpost(1), pdftex(1), tex(1), texexec(1).

       For more about positional graphics, see the MetaFun documentation on the ConTeXt wiki <http://wiki.contextgarden.net/MetaFun>.

BUGS

       If you specify a file for the -b option, you must join the option and name with = rather than (the more common) space:
	  dvipos -b=/tmp/debug.pos notes.dvi
       works, but
	  dvipos -b /tmp/debug.pos notes.dvi
       does not.
