Cli / Guides / Options
Usage: docpub [<options>] file...
OPTIONS:
-h [ --help ] Print a listing of available options.
-v [ --version ] Print the version information.
--file... arg A list of folders and/or file names to
process.
-s [ --subfolders ] Process all subfolders.
-f [ --format ] arg The output format. The following is a list
of supported export formats:
pdf
xps (Print XPS)
xod (Web optimized XPS, WebViewer format)
html
epub
epub_exp (epub expanded)
-o [ --outdir ] arg The output directory. The folder can be
relative to the current working folder. If
the folder does not exist DocPub will
attempt to create the required path. If
this parameter is not specified all files
will be saved relative to the current
working folder.
--fname arg The explicit name for the converted file.
The parameter is used only when converting
one file at a time. The output file will
be stored in the 'outdir' folder.
--extension arg The file extension which filters the files
to be processed by the specified type.
-p [ --pass ] arg The password to process the input file.
The password is required only when the
input document is encrypted.
--noprompt Disables any user input. By default, the
application will ask for a valid password
if the password is incorrect.
--suffix arg A string to append to all output
filenames. This option is typically used
to tag output filenames during multi-file
or batch conversion. For example, if input
file is "my.pdf" and suffix is "_pdfa" the
output filename will be "my_pdfa.pdf".
-e [ --output_extension ] arg The file extension which will replace the
output format extension. For example if
the output format is set to 'xod' and
output extension is set to 'xps' the
extension of the output file will be
'.xps'
-z [ --linearize ] Linearize the converted PDF files.
--verb arg (=1) Set the verbosity level to 'arg' (0-5).
--noprinter Disable virtual print driver use.
--config arg Load xml file to configure font
substitution for missing fonts. By
default, tries to load the file
"config.xml" in the current working
directory.
--xfdf arg (For PDF output only.) Merge xfdf file
into PDF output.
-d [ --dpi ] arg (=140) For conversions to .xps, .xod, .html or
.epub only. The output resolution, from 1
to 1000, in Dots Per Inch (DPI) at which
to render elements which cannot be
directly converted. The higher the DPI,
the largre the image.
--printmode For conversions to .xps or .xod only.
Renders annotations in the print mode.
This option can be used to render 'Print
Only' annotations and to hide 'Screen
Only' annotations.
--norender For conversions to .xps or .xod only.
Disables rendering of pages which cannot
be mapped accurately.
--enhance_thin_lines arg (=true) For conversions to .xps or .xod only. If
converting from PDF can enable or disable
making thin lines appear thicker in the
output document. This is useful because
some thin lines can appear invisible in
XPS/XOD, but not in the original PDF.
true, thin lines are enhanced.
false, lines are not enhanced.
By default, true is used.
--url_links For conversions to .xps, .xod, .html or
.epub only. By default links are not
generated for urls found in the document.
This option enables that generation.
--internal_links For conversions to .html or .epub only. By
default internal page jumps are not
generated for go to page navigations found
in the document. This option enables that
generation.
--op arg (=pdfx) For conversions to .xps or .xod only.
Specifies if overprint simulation is used.
Overprint is a device dependent feature
and the results will vary depending on the
output color space and supported colorants
(i.e. CMYK, CMYK+spot, RGB, etc). Possible
values are:
off, overprint is turned off
on, overprint is turned on
pdfx, overprint is turned on only for
PDF/X files
By default, pdfx is used.
--nothumbs For conversions to .xod only. Exclude
thumbnails from the document.
--thumbsize arg (=400,1500) For conversions to .xod only. The width
and height of a square (pixels) in which
thumbnails will be contained. The value
can be specified as a single number which
applies to all thumbnails or as two comma
separated values normal,large in order to
specify a different size for large PDF
pages. The default value is 400 pixels for
normal pages and 1500 pixels for large
pages.
--console_out For conversions to .xod only and exactly
one input file may be specified. Write
the output to the console rather than a
file which allows output files to be
streamed to the consumer.
--mask_workaround For conversions to .xod only. Enable
rendering of pages containing opacity
masks. This option is used as a
workaround to a bug in Silverlight where
opacity masks are transformed incorrectly.
--silverlight_text_workaround For conversions to .xod only. Outputs
rotated text as paths. This option is used
as a workaround to a bug in Silverlight
where pages with rotated text could cause
the plugin to crash.
--max_image_pixels arg (=10000000) For conversions to .xod, .pdf (with
flattening), .html or .epub. Specifies the
maximum image size in pixels.
--scale arg (=1) For conversions to .html or .epub only.
Adjusts the generated html page size.
--epub_reuse_cover For conversions to .epub only. The first
EPUB page uses the cover image, and will
have no selectable text.
--simplify_text Produces lightweight HTML output that
loads faster, but placement of individual
characters may be less precise.
The option applies only to HTML/EPUB
output.
--flatten arg For conversions to .xod and to .pdf only.
Used to reduce some PDF content to a
simple background image. While flattening
tries to preserve vector text, some text
might be flattened, especially in simple
mode.
off, disable flattening.
fast, will convert content deemed
complex to a background image, while
trying to preserve vector text, and
keeping file size down.
simple, reduces the PDF to two layers; a
RGB background image layer and an
overlapping vector text layer.
By default, fast is used for conversion to
.xod and off is used for conversion to
.pdf.
--flatten_threshold arg (=default) For conversions that use --flatten
[simple|fast]. Used to control how precise
or relaxed text flattening is. Some text
can be preserved (not flattened to image)
at the expense that the output might not
be exactly the same as the input.
very_strict, render (flatten) any text
that is clipped or occluded.
strict, render text that are marginally
clipped or occluded.
default, render text that are somewhat
clipped or occluded.
keep_most, only render text that are
seriously clipped or occluded.
keep_all, only render text that are
completely occluded, or used as a
clipping path.
--prefer_jpg arg (=true) For conversions to .xod, .html, .epub or
to .pdf with --flatten [simple|fast],
only. Where possible, output JPG files
rather than PNG. This will apply to both
thumbnails and document images.
true, generate JPG whenever possible.
false, no preference given to JPG.
By default, true is used.
--builtin_docx arg (=false) For conversions from .docx format, prefer
the built-in native conversion over any
system dependent conversion
true, use native conversion whenever
possible (currently for .docx only).
false, will only use native conversion
if there are no other methods available.
By default, native conversion is not
preferred.
--resource_doc arg The path to an office document that will
be searched for embedded resources during
office conversion process. This document
could contain embedded fonts that are not
present in the document to convert, for
example. This setting only has an effect
for office conversions using the built-in
converter (see the "builtin_docx" option)
--jpg_quality arg Set JPG compression quality, from 0 to
100.
--external_parts For conversions to .xod only. Output XOD
as a collection of loose files rather than
a zip archive. This option should be used
when using the external part retriever in
WebViewer.
--silverlight_flash_compatible For conversions to .xod only. The latest
XOD format is only partially supported in
Silverlight and Flash due to various
optimizations in the text format and the
addition of blend mode support. This
option forces the converter to use an
older version of XOD that is
Silverlight/Flash compatible but does not
have these improvements. By default the
latest XOD format is generated.
--xod_encrypt_password arg For conversions to .xod only. Encrypt XOD
parts with AES 128 encryption using the
supplied password.
--annotations arg For conversions to .xod only. Choose how
to output annotations. The following is a
list of supported annotation output
options:
internal (include the annotation file in
the XOD output. This is the default
option.)
external (output the annotation file
externally to the same output path with
extension .xfdf. This option is not
available with the console_out option)
Examples:
docpub in1.pdf in2.xps -o todir
docpub fromdir -o todir -f pdf
docpub -o outdir in.doc -f xps
docpub fromdir -o outdir -z --subfolders --verb 2 -f xpsGet the answers you need: Chat with us
