Command line options
The program is invoked by typing
fig2vect options
fig2vect options inputfile
fig2vect options inputfile outputfile
fig2vect options directory
The program runs as a filter if no input file name is specified.
If the output file name is omitted the program writes output to standard
output.
When the program is run on a directory name the directory is
traversed. Each *.fig file is converted into an appropriate output file.
If make-style behaviour is turned on a conversion is started only for *.fig
files which are newer than the output files to produce.
The following options are available:
- For all drivers:
- General options
- lighten look = boolean
- chooses whether or not to lighten the look as suggested in the Fig format specification. Turned off by default.
- web palette = boolean
- chooses whether or not to use a web optimized color palette instead of the normal colors. Turned off by default.
- use cs setting = boolean
- chooses whether or not to obtain the origin setting from the Fig file. Turned off by default because the Fig format specification suggests this.
- verbose output = boolean
- chooses whether or not to write additional comments to output. Turned off by default.
- accept unknown paper size = boolean
- allows to accept unknown paper format names. As fig2vect gets image width and height from the inspection of all graphics elements (except texts) we don't need to worry about unknown names. Turned on by default.
