💅 includeres 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the includeres page — that's INCLUDERES(1) to the manual, bestie to you 🫶. pull up a chair, we're about to make PostScript not be a mess.

✨ NAME ✨

includeres — she includes resources. that's the whole vibe. no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

includeres [OPTION...] [INFILE [OUTFILE]]

look at her. so simple. so iconic 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea ☕: includeres includes resources (fonts, procsets, patterns, files, etc.) in place of %%IncludeResource comments in a PostScript document. literally just swaps those comment lines out for the actual goods 💖.

the resources are searched for under the resource name, and with an appropriate extension. iykyk 🔍.

and now the pipeline that makes her actually shine, bestie:

extractres file.ps | includeres >out.ps

this bad boy will move all resources appearing in a document to the document prologue, removing redundant copies — the way that redundancy just gets yeeted?? obsessed 🧚. and then, and this is the good part, the output file can then be put through page re-arrangement filters such as psnup or pstops safely. SAFELY. no more chaos. slay 🌈.

Include resources in a PostScript document.

right, and the argument etiquette 💅:

  • INFILE — '-' or no INFILE argument means standard input
  • OUTFILE — '-' or no OUTFILE argument means standard output

no INFILE? stdin. no OUTFILE? stdout. it's giving "i got you" 🎀.

⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

  • -v, --version — show program's version number and exit. one little flex and she's gone 💨
  • -q, --quiet — don't show progress. for when the chatter is too much and you just need peace 🙈

👑 AUTHOR 👑

...yeah bestie, this section is empty in the original. nothing here. a whole heading and zero content 💀. i don't make the rules, i just deliver them ✨.

💀 BUGS 💀

includeres does not alter the %%DocumentNeededResources comments. that's it. that's the caveat. fr fr, don't come for her about it 😭.

🌸 alright that's the whole page, bestie! this was psutils 3.3.17, dated 2026-09-08 — go forth and include those resources responsibly 💜🎀✨
