NAME
       asciidoc - converts an AsciiDoc text file to HTML or DocBook

SYNOPSIS
       asciidoc [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION
       The asciidoc(1) command translates the AsciiDoc text file FILE to DocBook or HTML. If FILE is - then the standard input is used.

OPTIONS
       -a, --attribute=ATTRIBUTE
	   Define or delete document attribute.  ATTRIBUTE is formatted like NAME=VALUE. Command-line attributes take precedence over document and
	   configuration file attributes. Alternate acceptable forms are NAME (the VALUE defaults to an empty string); NAME!  (delete the NAME
	   attribute); NAME=VALUE@ (do not override document or configuration file attributes). Values containing spaces should be enclosed in
	   double-quote characters. This option may be specified more than once. A special attribute named trace controls the output of diagnostic
	   information.

       -b, --backend=BACKEND
	   Backend output file format: docbook45, xhtml11, html4, html5, slidy, wordpress or latex (the latex backend is experimental). You can
	   also use the backend alias names html (aliased to xhtml11) or docbook (aliased to docbook45). Defaults to html. The --backend option is
	   also used to manage backend plugins (see PLUGIN COMMANDS).

       -f, --conf-file=CONF_FILE
	   Use configuration file CONF_FILE.Configuration files processed in command-line order (after implicit configuration files). This option
	   may be specified more than once.

       --doctest
	   Run Python doctests in asciidoc module.

       -d, --doctype=DOCTYPE
	   Document type: article, manpage or book. The book document type is only supported by the docbook backend. Default document type is
	   article.

       -c, --dump-conf
	   Dump configuration to stdout.

       --filter=FILTER
	   Specify the name of a filter to be loaded (used to load filters that are not auto-loaded). This option may be specified more than once.
	   The --filter option is also used to manage filter plugins (see PLUGIN COMMANDS).

       -h, --help [TOPIC]
	   Print help TOPIC.  --help topics will print a list of help topics, --help syntax summarizes AsciiDoc syntax, --help manpage prints the
	   AsciiDoc manpage.

       -e, --no-conf
	   Exclude implicitly loaded configuration files except for those named like the input file (infile.conf and infile-backend.conf).

       -s, --no-header-footer
	   Suppress document header and footer output.

       -o, --out-file=OUT_FILE
	   Write output to file OUT_FILE. Defaults to the base name of input file with backend extension. If the input is stdin then the outfile
	   defaults to stdout. If OUT_FILE is - then the standard output is used.

       -n, --section-numbers
	   Auto-number HTML article section titles. Synonym for --attribute numbered.

       --safe
	   Enable safe mode. Safe mode is disabled by default. AsciiDoc safe mode skips potentially dangerous scripted sections in AsciiDoc source
	   files.

       --theme=THEME
	   Specify a theme name. Synonym for --attribute theme=THEME. The --theme option is also used to manage theme plugins (see PLUGIN
	   COMMANDS).

	   Verbosely print processing information and configuration file checks to stderr.

       --version
	   Print program version number.
