💅 XPSTOPDF(1) — XPS Tools, bestie edition 🎀

okay so real quick — this is a page from XPS Tools (you'll see that name floating around the header up there), and honestly? It's giving "tiny utility, huge main character energy." Let's get into it. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

xpstopdf — the XPS to PDF converter. That's it, that's the whole vibe. Lowkey iconic. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

xpstopdf [OPTION...] FILE [OUTPUT FILE]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So here's the tea: xpstopdf converts XPS documents into PDF format. 🎀

It reads the XPS file — that's FILE — and writes out a PDF file — that's OUTPUT FILE. Simple, clean, no drama.

But bestie, listen: if OUTPUT FILE is not specified, the output filename will be derived from the FILE filename. So the tool just names it for you, no cap. 🫶

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -?, --help — Show help options. Your little "hey what does this do" lifeline. 🫶
  • -d DOCUMENT, --document=DOCUMENT — Picks the document inside the XPS file to convert. By default, the first document of the XPS file is used. Like scrolling past the first slide to get to the good one. 👑
  • -f PAGE, --first=PAGE — The first page to convert. Where the story starts. ⭐
  • -l PAGE, --last=PAGE — The last page to convert. Roll credits. 🌈
  • -o, --odd — Convert only odd pages. Chaos mode, but the organized kind. 🙈
  • -e, --even — Convert only even pages. The other half. 🍓
  • -r RESOLUTION, --resolution=RESOLUTION — Horizontal and vertical resolution in PPI (Pixels Per Inch). The default is 150 PPI. Crisp. ✨
  • --rx=RESOLUTION — Horizontal resolution in PPI (Pixels Per Inch). The default is 150 PPI. Just the x vibes. 🦋
  • --ry=RESOLUTION — Vertical resolution in PPI (Pixels Per Inch). The default is 150 PPI. Just the y vibes. 🦋
  • -x X, --crop-x=X — The x-coordinate of the crop area top left corner. 📐
  • -y Y, --crop-y=Y — The y-coordinate of the crop area top left corner. 📐
  • -w WIDTH, --crop-width=WIDTH — The width of crop area. Slice slice. 💅
  • -h HEIGHT, --crop-height=HEIGHT — The height of crop area. Slice slice, vertical edition. 💅
  • --paper-width=WIDTH — The paper width. That's the canvas. 🎨
  • --paper-height=HEIGHT — The paper height. Also the canvas, just the other direction. 🎨
  • --expand — Expand pages smaller than the paper to fill the paper. By default, pages are not scaled. So yeah — glow-up mode is opt-in only. 🔥
  • --no-shrink — Don't scale pages which are larger than the paper. By default, pages larger than the paper are shrunk to fit. ⚠️ So like, flip this only if you want the overflow, bestie.
  • --no-center — Don't center on the paper pages smaller than the paper (after any scaling). By default, pages smaller than the paper are aligned to the lower-left corner. 🎯 (yep, the default is already corner-aligned — read it twice, it's not a typo)
