flpsed

FLPSED(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 FLPSED(1)

NAME

     flpsed -- annotate PostScript and PDF files

SYNOPSIS

     flpsed [-bdh] [-t tag=value] [-z zoom] [infile] [outfile]

DESCRIPTION

     The flpsed utility allows to annotate Postscript files.  PDF files can be imported using the pdftops and exported using the ps2pdf utility.
     If the document was saved in Postscript format, added text can be reedited later.	flpsed is useful for filling in forms or adding short com-
     ments.  Batch mode can be used to automate form filling.

     The options are as follows:

     -b      Batch mode (no GUI). In batch mode flpsed reads from stdin, if no infile is specified. Batch mode is useful in combination with the
	     file ... -t option.

     -d      Dump tags and values from a document to stdout (implies -b ).

     -h      Show short help text.

     -t tag=value
	     Set text to value where tag is tag Multiple -t options are allowed.

     -z zoom
	     Set initial zoom value in percent.

     -geometry WxH+X+Y
	     Set initial geometry.

     -iconic
	     Start iconified.

     -scheme string
	     Use fltk scheme string Currently fltk supports "plastic" and "gtk+".

EXIT STATUS

     The flpsed utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

EXAMPLES

     The command:

	   flpsed file1

     will start flpsed and load file1 for interactive editing.

     The command:

	   flpsed -b -t foo=bar file1 file2

     will set the text of all text fields in file1 carrying the tag "foo" to "bar" and write the resulting Postscript document to file2
