<h2><a name="Invoking"></a>Invoking Ghostscript</h2>
<p>This document describes how to use the command line Ghostscript client.
Ghostscript is also used as a general engine inside other applications (for viewing files for example).
Please refer to the documentation for those applications for using Ghostscript in other contexts.</p>
<p><a name="Command_line"></a> The command line to invoke Ghostscript is
essentially the same on all systems, although the name of the executable
program itself may differ among systems. For instance, to invoke
Ghostscript on unix-like systems type:</p>
<blockquote>
<pre><code>gs</code> [options] {filename 1} ... [options] {filename <em>N</em>} ...
</pre></blockquote>
<p>Here are some basic examples. The details of how these work are described below.</p>
<p>To view a file:</p>
<blockquote><pre>gs -dSAFER -dBATCH document.pdf</pre></blockquote>
<p>You'll be prompted to press <em>return</em> between pages.</p>
<p>To convert a figure to an image file:</p>
<blockquote><pre>gs -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=png16m -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 \
-sOutputFile=tiger.png tiger.eps</pre></blockquote>
<p>To render the same image at 300 dpi:</p>
<blockquote><pre>gs -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=png16m -r300 \
-sOutputFile=tiger_300.png tiger.eps
</pre></blockquote>
<p>To render a figure in grayscale:</p>
<blockquote><pre>gs -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pnggray -sOutputFile=figure.png figure.pdf
</pre></blockquote>
<p>To rasterize a whole document:</p>
<blockquote><pre>gs -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pgmraw -r150 \
-dTextAlphaBits=4 -sOutputFile='paper-%00d.pgm' paper.ps</pre></blockquote>
<p>There are also a number of utility scripts for common to convert a PostScript document to PDF:</p>
<blockquote><pre>ps2pdf file.ps</pre></blockquote>
<p>The output is saved as file.pdf.</p>
<p>There are other utility scripts besides <code>ps2pdf</code>, including <code>pdf2ps</code>, <code>ps2epsi</code>, <code>pdf2dsc</code>, <code>ps2ascii</code>,
<code>ps2ps</code> and <code>ps2ps2</code>. These just call Ghostscript with the appropriate
(if complicated) set of options. You can use the 'ps2' set with eps files.</p>
<p>
Ghostscript is capable of interpreting PostScript, encapsulated PostScript
(EPS), DOS EPS (EPSF), and Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). The interpreter reads and executes the files in sequence, using the method described under "<a href="#File_searching">File searching</a>" to find them.</p>
<p>The interpreter runs in interactive mode by default. After processing the files given on the command line (if any) it reads further lines of PostScript language commands from the primary input stream, normally the keyboard, interpreting each line separately. To quit the interpreter, type "<code>quit</code>". The <code>-dBATCH -dNOPAUSE</code> options in the examples above disable the interactive prompting. The interpreter also quits gracefully if it encounters end-of-file or control-C.</p>
<p>
The interpreter recognizes many options. An option may appear anywhere in the command line, and applies to all files named after it on the line. Many of them include "<code>=</code>"
followed by a parameter. The most important are described in detail here. Please see the reference sections on <a href="#Options">options</a> and <a href="Devices.htm">devices</a> for a more complete listing.</p>
<h3><a name="Help_command"></a>Help at the command line: <code>gs -h</code></h3>
<p>
You can get a brief help message by invoking Ghostscript with the
<code>-h</code> or <code>-?</code> switch, like this:</p>
<blockquote><pre>
gs -h
gs -?
</pre></blockquote>
<p>
The message shows for that version of the Ghostscript executable:</p>
<ul>
<li>the version and release information</li>
<li>the general format of the command line</li>
<li>a few of the most useful options</li>
<li>the formats it can interpret</li>
<li>the available output devices</li>
<li>the search path</li>
<li>the bug report address</li>
</ul>
<p>
On other systems the executable may have a different name:</p>
<blockquote><table>
<tr>
<th align="left">System</th>
<th align="left">Invocation Name</th></tr>
<tr><td>Unix</td>
<td><code>gs</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>VMS</td>
<td><code>gs</code></td></tr>
<tr><td>MS Windows 95 and later</td>
<td><code>gswin32.exe</code></td>
<td><code>gswin32c.exe</code></td>
<td><code>gswin64.exe</code></td>
<td><code>gswin64c.exe</code></td>
</tr>
<tr><td>OS/2</td>
<td><code>gsos2</code></td></tr>
</table></blockquote>
<p>On Windows, the two digit number indicates the word length of the system for which the binary was built (so
<code>gswin32.exe</code> is for x86 Windows systems, whilst <code>gswin64.exe</code> is for x86_64 Windows
systems). And the <code>"c"</code> suffix indicates a Windows console based binary (note that the
<code>"display device"</code> window will still appear).
<hr>
<h2><a name="Output_device"></a>Selecting an output device</h2>
<p>
Ghostscript has a notion of 'output devices' which handle saving or displaying the results in a particular format. Ghostscript comes with a diverse variety of such devices supporting vector and raster file output, screen display, driving various printers and communicating with other applications.</p>
<p>
The command line option '<code>-sDEVICE=</code><em>device</em>' selects which output device Ghostscript should use. If this option isn't given the default device (usually a display device) is used. Ghostscript's built-in help message (<code>gs -h</code>) lists the available output devices. For complete description of the devices distributed with Ghostscript and their options, please see the <a href="Devices.htm">devices section</a> of the documentation.</p>
<p><a name="Device_output"></a>
Note that this switch must precede the name of the first input file, and
only its first use has any effect. For example, for printer output in a
configuration that includes an Epson printer driver, instead of just
<code>'gs myfile.ps'</code> you might use</p>
<blockquote>
<code>gs -sDEVICE=epson myfile.ps</code>
</blockquote>
<p><a name="GS_DEVICE"></a>
The output device can also be set through the <code>GS_DEVICE</code> environment variable.</p>
<p>
Once you invoke Ghostscript you can also find out what devices are available by typing
'<code>devicenames ==</code>' at the interactive prompt.
You can set the output device and process a file from the interactive prompt as well:</p>
<blockquote><pre>
(epson) selectdevice
(myfile.ps) run
</pre></blockquote>
<p>All output then goes to the Epson printer instead of the display until you
do something to change devices. You can switch devices at any time by
using the <code>selectdevice</code> procedure, for
instance like one of these:</p>
<blockquote><pre>
(x11alpha) selectdevice
(epson) selectdevice
</pre></blockquote>
<h3><a name="Output_resolution"></a>Output resolution</h3>
<p>
Some printers can print at several different resolutions, letting you
balance resolution against printing speed. To select the resolution on
such a printer, use the <code>-r</code> switch:</p>
<blockquote>
<code>gs -sDEVICE=</code><em>printer</em><code> -r</code><em>XRES</em><code>x</code><em>YRES</em>
</blockquote>
<p>where <em>XRES</em> and <em>YRES</em> are the requested number of dots (or pixels) per inch. Where the two resolutions are same, as is the common case, you can simply use <code>-r</code><em>res</em>.</p>
<p>
The <code>-r</code> option is also useful for controlling the density of pixels when rasterizing to an image file. It is used this way in the examples at the beginning of this document.</p>
<h3><a name="File_output"></a>Output to files</h3>
<p>
Ghostscript also allows you to control where it sends its output. With a display device this isn't necessary as the device handles presenting the output on screen internally. Some specialized printer drivers operate this way as well, but most devices are general and need to be directed to a particular file or printer.</p>
<p>
To send the output to a file, use the <code>-sOutputFile=</code> switch or the <a href="#o_option"><code>-o</code> switch</a> (below).
For instance, to direct all output into the file <code>ABC.xyz</code>, use</p>
<blockquote><code>
gs -sOutputFile=ABC.xyz
</code></blockquote>
<p>
When printing on MS Windows systems, output normally goes directly to the printer, <code>PRN</code>. On Unix and VMS systems it normally goes to a temporary file which is sent to the printer in a separate step. When using Ghostscript as a file rasterizer (converting PostScript or PDF to a raster image format) you will of course want to specify an appropriately named file for the output.</p>
<p>
Ghostscript also accepts the special filename '<code>-</code>' which indicates the output should be written to standard output (the command shell).</p>
<p>
Be aware that filenames beginning with the character <code>%</code> have a special meaning in PostScript. If you need to specify a file name that actually
begins with <code>%</code>, you must prepend the <code>%os%</code> filedevice explicitly. For example to output to a file named <code>%abc</code>, you need to specify</p>
<blockquote>
<code>gs -sOutputFile=%os%%abc</code>
</blockquote>
<p>Please see <a href="Language.htm">Ghostscript and the PostScript Language</a> and the PostScript Language Reference Manual for more details on <code>%</code> and filedevices.</p>
<p><b>
Note that on MS Windows systems, the <code>%</code> character also has a special meaning for the command processor (shell), so you will have to double it.</b></p>
<blockquote>
<code>gs -sOutputFile=%%os%%%%abc</code> (on MS Windows)
</blockquote>
<p><b>
Note, some devices (e.g. pdfwrite, ps2write, ...) only write the output file
upon exit, but changing the OutputFile device parameter will cause these
devices to emit the pages received up to that point and then open the new
file name given by OutputFile.
</b></p>
<p>
For example, in order to create two PDF files from a single invocation of
ghostscript the following can be used:</p>
<blockquote>
<code>gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -o tiger.pdf examples/tiger.eps -c "<< /OutputFile (colorcir.pdf) >> setpagedevice" -f examples/colorcir.ps</code>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="One_page_per_file"></a>One page per file</h4>
<p>
Specifying a single output file works fine for printing and rasterizing
figures, but sometimes you want images of each page of a multi-page
document. You can tell Ghostscript to put each page of output in a
series of similarly named files. To do this place a template
'<code>%d</code>' in the filename which Ghostscript will replace with the
page number.</p>
<p>
<b>Note: Since the <code>%</code> character is used to precede the page number
format specification, in order to represent a file name that contains a <code>%</code>,
double <code>%</code> characters must be used. For example for the file <code>my%foo</code>
the OutputFile string needs to be <code>my%%foo</code>.</b></p>
<p>
The format can in fact be more involved than a simple '<code>%d</code>'.
The format specifier is of a form similar to the C <code>printf</code> format.
The general form supported is:</p>
<pre><code> %[flags][width][.precision][l]type
where: flags is one of: #+-
type is one of: diuoxX
</code></pre>
<p>For more information, please refer to documentation on the C printf format
specifications. Some examples are:</p>
<blockquote><dl>
<dt><code>-sOutputFile=ABC-%d.png</code></dt>
<dd>produces '<code>ABC-1.png</code>', ... , '<code>ABC-10.png</code>', ..</dd>
<dt><code>-sOutputFile=ABC-%03d.pgm</code></dt>
<dd>produces '<code>ABC-001.pgm</code>', ... , '<code>ABC-010.pgm</code>', ...</dd>
<dt><code>-sOutputFile=ABC_p%04d.tiff</code></dt>
<dd>produces '<code>ABC_p0001.tiff</code>', ... , '<code>ABC_p0510.tiff</code>', ... , '<code>ABC_p5238.tiff</code>'</dd>
</dl></blockquote>
<p><b>
Note, however that the one page per file feature may not supported by all devices.
Also, since some devices write output files when opened, there may be an extra
blank page written (pdfwrite, ps2write, eps2write, pxlmono, pxlcolor, ...).
</b></p>
<p>
As noted above, when using MS Windows console (command.com or cmd.exe), you
will have to double the <code>%</code> character since the <code>%</code> is used by
that shell to prefix variables for substitution, e.g.,</p>
<blockquote><code>
gswin32c -sOutputFile=ABC%%03d.xyz
</code></blockquote>
<h4><a name="o_option"></a>-o option:</h4>
<p>
As a convenient shorthand you can use the <code>-o</code> option followed by the output
file specification as discussed above. The <code>-o</code> option also sets the
<a href="#Interaction_related_parameters"><code>-dBATCH</code> and <code>-dNOPAUSE</code> options</a>.
This is intended to be a quick way to invoke ghostscript to convert one or more
input files.</p>
<p>For instance, to convert somefile.ps to JPEG image files, one per page, use:</p>
<blockquote><code>
gs -sDEVICE=jpeg -o out-%d.jpg somefile.ps
</code></blockquote>
<p>is equivalent to:</p>
<blockquote><code>
gs -sDEVICE=jpeg -sOutputFile=out-%d.jpg -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE somefile.ps
</code></blockquote>
<h3><a name="Paper_size"></a>Choosing paper size</h3>
<p>
Ghostscript is distributed configured to use U.S. letter paper as its
default page size. There are two ways to select other paper sizes from the
command line:</p>
<ul>
<li>
If the desired paper size is listed in the section on <a
href="#Known_paper_sizes">paper sizes known to Ghostscript</a> below, you
can select it as the default paper size for a single invocation of
Ghostscript by using the <code>-sPAPERSIZE=</code> switch, for instance</li>
<blockquote><code>
-sPAPERSIZE=a4<br>
-sPAPERSIZE=legal
</code></blockquote>
<li>
Otherwise you can set the page size using the
pair of switches</li>
<blockquote>
<code>-dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=</code><em>w</em>
<code>-dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=</code><em>h</em>
</blockquote>
<p>Where <em>w</em> be the desired paper width and <em>h</em> be the
desired paper height in <em>points</em> (units of 1/72 of an inch).</p>
</ul>
<p>
Individual documents can (and often do) specify a paper size, which takes
precedence over the default size. To force a specific paper size and
ignore the paper size specified in the document, select a paper size as
just described, and also include the
<a href="#FIXEDMEDIA"><code>-dFIXEDMEDIA</code> switch</a> on the
command line.</p>
<p>
The default set of paper sizes will be included in the <code>currentpagedevice</code>
in the <code>InputAttributes</code> dictionary with each paper size as
one of the entries. The last entry in the dictionary (which has numeric keys)
is a non-standard (Ghostscript extension) type of PageSize where the array
has four elements rather than the standard two elements. This four element
array represents a page size range where the first two elements are the lower
bound of the range and the second two are the upper bound. By default these
are [0, 0] for the lower bound and [16#fffff, 16#fffff] for the upper bound.</p>
<p>
The range type of PageSize is intended to allow flexible page size sepcification
for non-printer file formats such as JPEG, PNG, TIFF, EPS, ...</p>
<p>
For actual printers, either the entire <code>InputAttributes</code> dictionary
should be replaced or the range type entry should not be included. To simplify
using the default page sizes in the <code>InputAttributes</code> dictionary,
the command line option <code>-dNORANGEPAGESIZE</code> can be used. Using
this option will result in automatic rotation of the document page if the requested
page size matches one of the default page sizes.</p>
<p>
When the <a href="#FIXEDMEDIA"><code>-dFIXEDMEDIA</code> switch</a> is given on the
command line, the <code>InputAttributes</code> dictionary will only be populated
with the single page size. This allows the <code>-dPSFitPage</code> option to fit
the page size requested in a PostScript file to be rotated, scaled and centered
for the best fit on the specified page.</p>
<h3><a name="Change_default_size"></a>Changing the installed default paper size</h3>
<p>
You can change the installed default paper size on an installed version of Ghostscript, by editing the initialization file <code>gs_init.ps</code>.
This file is usually in the <code>Resource/Init</code> directory somewhere in the search path. See the section on <a href="#Finding_files">finding files</a> for details.</p>
<p>
Find the line</p>
<blockquote><pre>
% /DEFAULTPAPERSIZE (a4) def
</pre></blockquote>
<p>
Then to make A4 the default paper size, uncomment the line to change
this to</p>
<blockquote><pre>
/DEFAULTPAPERSIZE (a4) def
</pre></blockquote>
<p>
For <code>a4</code> you can substitute any
<a href="#Known_paper_sizes">paper size Ghostscript knows</a>.</p>
<p>
This supecedes the previous method of uncommenting the line
<code>% (a4) ...</code>.</p>
<p>
Sometimes the initialization files are compiled into Ghostscript and cannot be changed.</p>
<p>
On Windows and some Linux builds, the default paper size will be
selected to be a4 or letter depending
on the locale.</p>
<hr>
<h2><a name="Pipes"></a>Interacting with pipes</h2>
<p>
As noted above, input files are normally specified on the command
line. However, one can also "pipe" input into Ghostscript from another
program by using the special file name '<code>-</code>' which is interpreted as standard input. Examples:</p>
<blockquote>
{<em>some program producing ps</em>} <code>| gs</code> [options] <code>-</code>
<br>
<code>zcat paper.ps.gz</code> <code>| gs</code> <code>-</code>
</blockquote>
<p>
When Ghostscript finishes reading from the pipe, it quits rather than
going into interactive mode. Because of this, options and files after the '<code>-</code>' in the command line will be ignored.</p>
<p>
On Unix and MS Windows systems you can send output to a pipe in the same way. For example, to pipe the output to <code>lpr</code>, use the command</p>
<blockquote><code>
<b>gs -q -sOutputFile=- |</b> lpr
</code></blockquote>
<p>
In this case you must also use the <a href="#Quiet"><code>-q</code>
switch</a> to prevent Ghostscript from writing messages to standard output
which become mixed with the intended output stream.</p>
<p>
Also, using the <b>-sstdout=%stderr</b> option is useful, particularly with
input from PostScript files that may print to stdout.</p>
<p>
Similar results can be obtained with the <code>%stdout</code> and <code>%pipe%</code> filedevices. The example above would become</p>
<blockquote><code>
<b>gs -sOutputFile=%stdout -q |</b> lpr
</code></blockquote>
or
<blockquote><code>
<b>gs -sOutputFile=%pipe%</b>lpr
</code></blockquote>
<p>(again, doubling the <code>%</code> character on MS Windows systems.)</p>
<p>
In the last case, <code>-q</code> isn't necessary since Ghostscript handles the pipe itself and messages sent to stdout will be printed as normal.</p>
<hr>
<h2><a name="PDF"></a>Using Ghostscript with PDF files</h2>
<p>
Ghostscript is normally built to interpret both PostScript and PDF files, examining each file to determine automatically whether its contents are PDF or PostScript. All the normal switches and procedures for interpreting PostScript files also apply to PDF files, with a few exceptions. In addition, the
<code>pdf2ps</code> utility uses Ghostscript to convert PDF to (Level 2) PostScript.</p>
<h3><a name="PDF_switches"></a>Switches for PDF files</h3>
<p>Here are some command line options specific to PDF</p>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dPDFFitPage</code></dt>
<dd>Rather than selecting a PageSize given by the PDF MediaBox, BleedBox (see -dUseBleedBox),
TrimBox (see -dUseTrimBox), ArtBox (see -dUseArtBox), or CropBox (see -dUseCropBox),
the PDF file will be scaled to fit the current device page size
(usually the default page size).
<p>
This is useful for creating fixed size images of PDF files that may have
a variety of page sizes, for example thumbnail images.</p>
<p>
This option is also set by the <code>-dFitPage</code> option.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dPrinted</code></dt>
<dt><code>-dPrinted=false</code></dt>
<dd>Determines whether the file should be displayed or printed using the
"screen" or "printer" options for annotations and images. With
<code>-dPrinted</code>, the output will use the file's "print"
options; with <code>-dPrinted=false</code>, the output will use the
file's "screen" options. If neither of these is specified, the output will
use the screen options for any output device that doesn't have an
<code>OutputFile</code> parameter, and the printer options for
devices that do have this parameter.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dUseBleedBox</code></dt>
<dd>Sets the page size to the BleedBox rather than the MediaBox.
defines the region to which the contents of the page should be
clipped when output in a production environment. This may include
any extra bleed area needed to accommodate the physical limitations
of cutting, folding, and trimming equipment. The actual printed page
may include printing marks that fall outside the bleed box.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dUseTrimBox</code></dt>
<dd>Sets the page size to the TrimBox rather than the MediaBox.
The trim box defines the intended dimensions of the finished page
after trimming. Some files have a TrimBox that is smaller than the
MediaBox and may include white space, registration or cutting marks
outside the CropBox. Using this option simulates appearance of the
finished printed page.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dUseArtBox</code></dt>
<dd>Sets the page size to the ArtBox rather than the MediaBox.
The art box defines the extent of the page's meaningful content
(including potential white space) as intended by the page's creator.
The art box is likely to be the smallest box. It can be useful
when one wants to crop the page as much as possible
without losing the content.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dUseCropBox</code></dt>
<dd>Sets the page size to the CropBox rather than the MediaBox.
Unlike the other "page boundary" boxes, CropBox does not have a
defined meaning, it simply provides a rectangle to which the
page contents will be clipped (cropped). By convention, it is
often, but not exclusively, used to aid the positioning of content
on the (usually larger, in these cases) media.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sPDFPassword=</code><em>password</em></dt>
<dd>Sets the user or owner password to be used in decoding encrypted
PDF files. For files created with encryption method 4 or earlier, the
password is an arbitrary string of bytes; with encryption method 5 or
later, it should be text in either UTF-8 or your locale's character
set (Ghostscript tries both).</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dShowAnnots=false</code></dt>
<dd>
Don't enumerate annotations associated with the page
<code>Annots</code> key. Annotations are shown by default.</dd>
<p> In addition, finer control is available by defining an array
<code>/ShowAnnotTypes</code>. Annotation types listed in this array will
be drawn, whilst those not listed will not be drawn.</p>
<p> To use this feature:
<code>-c "/ShowAnnotTypes [....] def" -f <input file></code>
<br> Where the array can contain one or more of the following names:
<code>/Stamp</code>, <code>/Squiggly</code>, <code>/Underline</code>, <code>/Link</code>, <code>/Text</code>, <code>/Highlight</code>, <code>/Ink</code>, <code>/FreeText</code>, <code>/StrikeOut</code> and <code>/stamp_dict</code>.</p>
<p> For example, adding the follow to the command line:
<code>-c "/ShowAnnotTypes [/Text /UnderLine] def" -f <input file></code>
<br> would draw only annotations with the subtypes "Text" and "UnderLine"</p>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dShowAcroForm=false</code></dt>
<dd>
Don't show annotations from the Interactive Form Dictionary (AcroForm dictionary).
By default, AcroForm processing is now enabled because Adobe Acrobat does this. This option
is provided to restore the previous behavior which corresponded to older Acrobat.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dNoUserUnit</code></dt>
<dd>
Ignore <code>UserUnit</code> parameter. This may be useful for backward
compatibility with old versions of Ghostscript and Adobe Acrobat,
or for processing files with large values of <code>UserUnit</code>
that otherwise exceed implementation limits.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dRENDERTTNOTDEF</code></dt>
<dd>
If a glyph is not present in a font the normal behaviour is to use the /.notdef
glyph instead. On TrueType fonts, this is often a hollow sqaure. Under some
conditions Acrobat does not do this, instead leaving a gap equivalent to the
width of the missing glyph, or the width of the /.notdef glyph if no /Widths
array is present. Ghostscript now attempts to mimic this undocumented feature
using a user parameter <code>RenderTTNotdef</code>. The PDF interpreter sets this
user parameter to the value of <code>RENDERTTNOTDEF</code> in systemdict,
when rendering PDF files. To restore rendering of /.notdef glyphs from TrueType fonts in PDF files, set this parameter to true.</dd>
</dl>
<p>These command line options are no longer specific to PDF, but have some specific differences with PDF files</p>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dFirstPage=</code><em>pagenumber</em></dt>
<dd>Begin on the designated page of the document.
Pages of all documents in PDF collections are numbered sequentionally.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dLastPage=</code><em>pagenumber</em></dt>
<dd>Stop after the designated page of the document.
Pages of all documents in PDF collections are numbered sequentionally.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sPageList=</code><em>pagenumber</em></dt>
<dd>There are three possible values for this; even, odd or a list of pages to be processed.
A list can include single pages or ranges of pages.
Ranges of pages use the minus sign '-', individual pages and ranges of pages are separated
by commas ','. A trailing minus '-' means process all remaining pages. For example;
<p><blockquote><pre>
-sPageList=1,3,5 indicates that pages 1, 3 and 5 should be processed.
-sPageList=5-10 indicates that pages 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 should be processed.
-sPageList=1,5-10,12- indicates that pages 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12 onwards should be processed.
</pre></blockquote>
Note: Use of PageList overrides FirstPage and/or LastPage, if you set these as well as PageList they will be ignored. The
list of pages should be given in increasing order, you cannot process pages out of order and inserting higher numbered pages before lower numbered
pages in the list will generate an error.
</p>
<p>The PDF interpreter and the other language interpreters handle these in slightly different ways. Because
PDF files enable random access to pages in the document the PDF inerpreter only interprets and renders
the required pages. PCL and PostScript cannot be handled in ths way, and so all the pages must be interpreted.
However only the requested pages are rendered, which can still lead to savings in time. Be aware that
using the '%d' syntax for OutputFile does not reflect the page number in the original document. If you
chose (for example) to process even pages by using <code>-sPageList=even</code>, then the output of
<code>-sOutputFile=out%d.png</code> would still be
out0.png, out1.png, out2.png etc......
</p>
<p>
Because the PostScript and PCL interpreters cannot determine when a document terminates, sending multple
files as input on the command line does not reset the PageList between each document, each page in the second and
subsequent documents is treated as following on directly from the last page in the first document. The PDF
interpreter, however, does not work this way. Since it knows about individual PDF files the PageList
is applied to each PDF file separately. So if you were to set <code>-sPageList=1,2</code> and
then send two PDF files, the result would be pages 1 and 2 from the first file, and then pages 1 and 2 from the second
file. The PostScript interpreter, by contrast, would only render pages 1 and 2 from the first file. This means you must
exercise caution when using this switch, and probably should not use it at all when processing a mixture of PostScript
and PDF files on the same command line.
</p>
<p>
The XPS language like the PDF language allows random access to pages. The XPS interpreter handles all the PageList cases
discussed above. It also handles cases such as:
<blockquote><pre>
-sPageList=1,2,1,2 indicates repeated pages. Pages processed in order 1, 2, 1, 2.
-sPageList=10-5 indicates pages will be processed in the order 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5.
-sPageList=1-,-1 indicates first processing from page 1 to end and then from end to page 1.
</pre></blockquote>
In addition, the XPS interpreter allows the use of a -dLastPage < -dFirstPage. In this
case the pages will be processed backwards from LastPage to FirstPage.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<h3><a name="PDF_problems"></a>Problems interpreting a PDF file</h3>
<p>
Occasionally you may try to read or print a 'PDF' file that
Ghostscript doesn't recognize as PDF, even though the same file
<b><em>can</em></b> be opened and interpreted by an Adobe Acrobat viewer.
In many cases, this is because of incorrectly generated PDF. Acrobat
tends to be very forgiving of invalid PDF files. Ghostscript tends to
expect files to conform to the standard. For example, even though
valid PDF files must begin with <code>%PDF</code>, Acrobat will
scan the first 1000 bytes or so for this string, and ignore any preceding
garbage.</p>
<p>
In the past, Ghostscript's policy has been to simply fail with an
error message when confronted with these files. This policy has, no
doubt, encouraged PDF generators to be more careful. However, we now
recognize that this behavior is not very friendly for people who just
want to use Ghostscript to view or print PDF files. Our new policy is
to try to render broken PDF's, and also to print a warning, so that
Ghostscript is still useful as a sanity-check for invalid files.</p>
<h3><a name="PDF_stdin"></a>PDF files from standard input</h3>
<p>
The PDF language, unlike the PostScript language, inherently requires
random access to the file.
If you provide PDF to standard input using the
special filename <a href="#Pipes">'<code>-</code>'</a>,
Ghostscript will copy it to a temporary file before interpreting the PDF.</p>
<hr>
<h2><a name="EPS"></a>Using Ghostscript with EPS files</h2>
<p>
Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files are intended to be incorporated
in other PostScript documents and may not display or print on their
own. An EPS file must conform to the Document Structuring Conventions,
must include a <code>%%BoundingBox</code> line to indicate the
rectangle in which it will draw, must not use PostScript commands
which will interfere with the document importing the EPS,
and can have either zero pages or one page.
Ghostscript has support for handling EPS files, but requires
that the <code>%%BoundingBox</code> be in the header,
not the trailer.
To customize EPS handling, see <a href="#EPS_parameters">EPS parameters</a>.</p>
<p>
For the official description of the EPS file format, please
refer to the Adobe documentation in their tech note #5002. It
is available from:
<a href="http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/ps/index_specs.html"
class="offsite">

<hr>
<h2><a name="SPOT"></a>Using Ghostscript with overprinting and spot colors</h2>
<p>
In general with PostScript and PDF interpreters, the handling of
<b>overprinting</b> and <b>spot colors</b> depends upon the
process color model of the <a href="#Output_device">output device</a>. Devices
that produce gray or RGB output have an <b>additive</b> process color model.
Devices which produce CMYK output have a <b>subtractive</b> process color model.
Devices may, or may not, have support for spot colors.</p>
<blockquote><i>
Note: The differences in appearance of files with overprinting and spot colors
caused by the differences in the color model of the output device are part of the
PostScript and PDF specifications. They are not due to a limitation in the
implementation of Ghostscript or its output devices.
</i></blockquote>
<p>
With devices which use a subtractive process color model, both PostScript
and PDF allow the drawing of objects using colorants (inks) for one or more planes
without affecting the data for the remaining colorants. Thus the inks for one
object may <code>overprint</code> the inks for another object. In some cases
this produces a transparency like effect. (The effects of overprinting should
not be confused with the PDF 1.4 blending operations which are supported for
all output devices.) Overprinting is not allowed for devices with an additive
process color model. With files that use overprinting, the appearance of the
resulting image can differ between devices which produce RGB output versus devices
which produce CMYK output. Ghostscript automatically overprints (if needed)
when the output device uses a subtractive process color model. For example,
if the file is using overprinting, differences can be seen in the appearance
of the output from the <a href="Devices.htm#TIFF">tiff24nc and tiff32nc devices</a>
which use an RGB and a CMYK process color models.</p>
<p>
Most of the Ghostscript <a href="Devices.htm">output devices</a> do not have
file formats which support spot colors. Instead spot colors are converted using
the tint transform function contained within the color space definition.. However
there are several devices which have support for spot colors. The PSD format
(Adobe Photoshop) produced by the <a href="Devices.htm#PSD">psdcmyk device</a>
contains both the raster data plus an equivalent CMYK color for each spot color.
This allows Photoshop to simulate the appearance of the spot colors. The <a href="Devices.htm#display_device">display
device (MS Windows, OS/2, gtk+)</a> can be used with different color models:
Gray, RGB, CMYK only, or CMYK plus spot colors (separation). The display device,
when using its CMYK plus spot color (separation) mode, also uses an equivalent
CMYK color to simulate the appearance of the spot color. The
<a href="Devices.htm#TIFF">tiffsep
device</a> creates output files for each separation (CMYK and any spot colors
present). It also creates a composite CMYK file using an equivalent CMYK color
to simulate the appearance of spot colors. The
<a href="Devices.htm#XCF">xcfcmyk device</a>
creates output files with spot colors placed in separate alpha channels. (The
XCF file format does not currently directly support spot colors.)</p>
<p>
Overprinting with spot colors is not allowed if the tint transform function
is being used to convert spot colors. Thus if spot colors are used with overprinting,
then the appearance of the result can differ between output devices. One result
would be obtained with a CMYK only device and another would be obtained with
a CMYK plus spot color device. In a worst case situation where a file has overprinting
with both process (CMYK) and spot colors, it is possible to get three different
appearances for the same input file using the

<h2><a name="Finding_files"></a>How Ghostscript finds files</h2>
<p>
When looking for initialization files (<code>gs_*.ps</code>,
<code>pdf_*.ps</code>), font files, the <code>Fontmap</code> file,
files named on the command line, and resource files, Ghostscript first tests whether the
file name specifies an absolute path.</p>
<blockquote><table>
<tr><th colspan="3">Testing a file name for an absolute path</th></tr>
<tr><th align="left">System</th>
<th> </th>
<th align="left">Does the name ...</th></tr>
<tr><td colspan="3"></td></tr>
<tr><td valign="top">Unix</td>
<td> </td>
<td>Begin with <code><u>/</u></code> ?</td></tr>
<tr><td valign="top">MS Windows</td>

<td>Have <code><u>:</u></code> as its second character, or
begin with <code><u>/</u></code>, <code><u>\</u></code>,
or <code><u>//servername/share/</u></code> ?</td></tr>
<tr><td valign="top">VMS</td>
<td> </td>
<td>Contain a node, device, or root specification?</td></tr>
</table></blockquote>
<p>If the test succeeds, Ghostscript tries to open the file
using the name given. Otherwise it tries directories in this order:</p>
<ol>
<li>The current directory if enabled by the
<a href="#P-_switch"><code>-P</code> switch</a>;</li>
<li>The directories specified by <a href="#I_switch"><code>-I</code>
switches</a> in the command line, if any;</li>
<li>The directories specified by the <code>GS_LIB</code>
environment variable, if any;</li>
<li>If built with COMPILE_INITS=1 (currently the default build) the files in the
<code>%rom%Resource/</code> and <code>%rom%iccprofiles/</code> directories are
built into the executable.</li>
<li>The directories specified by the <code>GS_LIB_DEFAULT</code> macro
(if any) in the makefile when this executable was built.</li>
</ol>
<p>
<code>GS_LIB_DEFAULT</code>,
<code>GS_LIB</code>, and the
<code>-I</code> parameter may specify either a single
directory or a list of directories separated by a character appropriate for
the operating system ("<code>:</code>" on Unix systems,
"<code>,</code>" on VMS systems, and
"<code>;</code>" on MS Windows systems).
By default, Ghostscript no longer searches the current directory first
but provides <a href="#P_switch"><code>-P</code> switch</a> for a degree
of backward compatibility.</p>
<p>
Note that Ghostscript does not use this file searching algorithm for the
<code>run</code> or <code>file</code> operators: for these operators, it
simply opens the file with the name given. To run a file using the searching
algorithm, use <code>runlibfile</code> instead of <code>run</code>.</p>
<h3><a name="PS_resources"></a>Finding PostScript Level 2 resources</h3>
<p>
Adobe specifies that resources are installed in a single directory.
Ghostscript instead maintains a list of resource directories,
and uses an extended method for finding resource files.</p>
<p>
The search for a resource file depends on whether
the value of the system parameter <code>GenericResourceDir</code>
specifies an absolute path. The user may set it as explained in
<a href="#Resource_related_parameters">Resource-related parameters</a>.</p>
<p>
If the user doesn't set the system parameter <code>GenericResourceDir</code>,
or use the <code>-sGenericResourceDir=</code> command line option, Ghostscript
creates a default value for it by looking on the directory paths explained in
<a href="#Finding_files">How Ghostscript finds files</a>, excluding the current directory.
The first path with <code>Resource</code> in it is used, including any prefix
up to the path separator character following the string <code>Resource</code>.
For example, when COMPILE_INITS=1 (the current default build), if the first path
is <code>%rom%Resource/Init/</code>, then the <code>GenericResourceDir</code>
systemparam will be set to <code>%rom%Resource/</code> by default.</p>
<p>
If the value of the system parameter <code>GenericResourceDir</code>
is an absolute path (the default),
Ghostscript assumes a single resource directory.
It concatenates :</p>
<ol>
<li>The value of the system parameter <code>GenericResourceDir</code>;</li>
<li>The name of the resource category (for instance, <code>CMap</code>);</li>
<li>The name of the resource instance (for instance, <code>Identity-H</code>).</li>
</ol>
<p>If the value of the system parameter <code>GenericResourceDir</code>
is not an absolute path,
Ghostscript assumes multiple resource directories.
In this case it concatenates :</p>
<ol>
<li>A directory listed in the section
<a href="#Finding_files">How Ghostscript finds files</a>,
except the current directory;</li>
<li>The value of the system parameter <code>GenericResourceDir</code>;</li>
<li>The name of the resource category (for instance, <code>CMap</code>);</li>
<li>The name of the resource instance (for instance, <code>Identity-H</code>)</li>
</ol>
<p>Due to possible variety of the part 1, the first successful combination is used.
For example, if the value of the system parameter <code>GenericResourceDir</code>
is the string <code>../Resource/</code>
(or its equivalent in the file path syntax of the underlying platform),
Ghostscript searches for <code>../Resource/CMap/Identity-H</code>
from all directories listed in
<a href="#Finding_files">How Ghostscript finds files</a>.
So in this example, if the user on a Windows platform specifies
the command line option <code>-I.;../gs/lib;c:/gs8.50/lib</code>,
Ghostscript searches for <code>../gs/Resource/CMap/Identity-H</code> and
then for <code>c:/gs8.50/Resource/CMap/Identity-H</code>.</p>
<p>
To get a proper platform dependent syntax Ghostscript inserts
the value of the system parameter
<code>GenericResourcePathSep</code> (initially
"<code>/</code>" on Unix and Windows, "<code>:</code>" on MacOS,
"<code>.</code>" or "<code>]</code>" on OpenVMS).
The string <code>../Resource</code> is replaced with a
platform dependent equivalent.</p>
<p>
In the case of multiple resource directories,
the default <code>ResourceFileName</code> procedure retrieves either a path
to the first avaliable resource, or if the resource is not available it
returns a path starting with <code>GenericResourceDir</code>.
Consequently Postscript installers of Postscript resources
will overwrite an existing resource or add a new one to the first resource directory.</p>
<p>
To look up fonts, after exhausting the search method described in <a href="#Font_lookup">the
next section</a>, it concatenates together</p>
<ol>
<li>the value of the system parameter
<code>FontResourceDir</code> (initially
<code>/Resource/Font/</code>)</li>
<li>the name of the resource font (for instance, <code>Times-Roman</code>)</li>
</ol>
<p>
Note that even although the system parameters are named "somethingDir", they
are not just plain directory names: they have "<code>/</code>" on the
end, so that they can be concatenated with the category name or font name.</p>
<h3><a name="Font_lookup"></a>Font lookup</h3>
<p>
Ghostscript has a slightly different way to find the file containing a font
with a given name. This rule uses not only the search path defined by
<code>-I</code>, <code>GS_LIB</code>, and
<code>GS_LIB_DEFAULT</code> <a href="#Finding_files">as described
above</a>, but also the directory that is the value of the
<code>FontResourceDir</code> system parameter, and an additional list of
directories that is the value of the <code>GS_FONTPATH</code> environment
variable (or the value provided with the <code>-sFONTPATH=</code> switch,
if present).</p>
<p>
At startup time, Ghostscript reads in the <code>Fontmap</code> files in
every directory on the search path (or in the list provided with the
<code>-sFONTMAP=</code> switch, if present): these files are catalogs of
fonts and the files that contain them. (See <a href="Fonts.htm#Fontmap">the
documentation of fonts</a> for details.) Then, when Ghostscript needs to
find a font that isn't already loaded into memory, it goes through a series
of steps.</p>
<ul>
<li>
First, it looks up the font name in the combined Fontmaps. If there is an
entry for the desired font name, and the file named in the entry can be
found in some directory on the general search path (defined by
<code>-I</code>, <code>GS_LIB</code>, and
<code>GS_LIB_DEFAULT</code>), and the file is loaded successfully, and
loading it defines a font of the desired name, that is the end of the
process.</li>
<li>
If this process fails at any step, Ghostscript looks for a file whose name
is the concatenation of the value of the <code>FontResourceDir</code>
system parameter and the font name, with no extension. If such a file
exists, can be loaded, and defines a font of the desired name, that again is
the end. The value of <code>FontResourceDir</code> is normally the
string <code>/Resource/Font/</code>, but it can be changed with the
<code>setsystemparams</code> operator: see the PostScript Language
Reference Manual for details.</li>
<li>
If that fails, Ghostscript then looks for a file on the general search path
whose name is the desired font name, with no extension. If such a file
exists, can be loaded, and defines a font of the desired name, that again is
the end.</li>
<li>
If that too fails, Ghostscript looks at the <code>GS_FONTPATH</code>
environment variable (or the value provided with the
<code>-sFONTPATH=</code> switch, if present), which is also a list of
directories. It goes to the first directory on the list, and it's descendants,
looking for all files that appear to contain PostScript fonts (also Truetype
fonts); it then adds all those files and fonts to the combined Fontmaps, and
starts over.</li>
<li>
If scanning the first FONTPATH directory doesn't produce a file that
provides the desired font, it adds the next directory on the FONTPATH list,
and so on until either the font is defined successfully or the list is
exhausted.</li>
<li>
Finally, if all else fails, it will try to find a substitute for the font
from among the standard 35 fonts.</li>
</ul>

<b>*</b> On SGI IRIX systems, you must use <code>Fontmap.SGI</code> in

Ghostscript version 6.0, but we aren't sure because we've never been able to
reproduce it.) See <code>Fontmap.Sol</code> instead. Also, on Solaris
2.x it's probably not worth your while to add Sun's fonts to your font path
and Fontmap. The fonts Sun distributes on Solaris 2.x in the directories</p>

<p>
Adobe Acrobat comes with a set of fourteen Type 1 fonts, on Unix typically
in a directory called ...<code>/Acrobat3/Fonts</code>. There is no
particular reason to use these instead of the corresponding fonts in the
Ghostscript distribution (which are of just as good quality), except to save
about a megabyte of disk space, but the installation documentation explains
how to do it <a href="Install.htm#Use_Acrobat_fonts_Unix">on Unix</a>.</p>
<h3><a name="CIDFonts"></a>CID fonts</h3>
<p>
CID fonts are PostScript resources containing a
large number of glyphs (e.g. glyphs for Far East languages,
Chinese, Japanese and Korean).
Please refer to the PostScript Language Reference,
third edition, for details.</p>
<p>
CID font resources are a different kind of PostScript resource from fonts.
In particular, they cannot be used as regular fonts.
CID font resources must first be combined with a CMap resource, which
defines specific codes for glyphs, before it can be used as a font. This
allows the reuse of a collection of glyphs with different encodings.</p>
<p>
The simplest method to request a font composed of a CID font resource
and a CMap resource in a PostScript document is
<blockquote><code>
/CIDFont-CMap findfont
</code></blockquote>
where <code>CIDFont</code> is a name of any
CID font resource, and <code>CMap</code> is a name of a CMap resource
designed for the same character collection. The interpreter will compose
the font automatically from the specified CID font and CMap resources.
Another method is possible using the <code>composefont</code> operator.</p>
<p>
CID fonts must be placed in the <code>/Resource/CIDFont/</code> directory.
They are not found using <a href="#Font_lookup">Font lookup</a>
on the search path or font path.</p>
<h3><a name="CIDFontSubstitution"></a>CID font substitution</h3>
<h4><a name="AutomaticCIDFontSubstitution"></a>Automatic CIDFont Substitution</h4>
<p>
In general, it is highly recommended that CIDFonts used in the creation of PDF
jobs should be embedded or available to Ghostscript as CIDFont resources, this
ensures that the character set, and typeface style are as intended by the
author.</p>
<p>
In cases where the original CIDFont is not available, the next best option is
to provide Ghostscript with a mapping to a suitable alternative CIDFont - see
below for details on how this is achieved. However, Ghostscript does provide the
ability to use a "fall back" CIDFont substitute. As shipped, this uses the
DroidSansFallback.ttf font. This font contains a large number of glyphs covering
several languages, but it is not comprehensive. There is, therefore, a chance
that glyphs may be wrong, or missing in the output when this fallback is used.</p>
<p>
Internally, the font is referenced as CIDFont resource called <code>CIDFallBack</code>, thus
a different fallback from DroidSansFallback.ttf can be specified adding a
mapping to your cidfmap file (see below for details) to map the name "CIDFallBack"
as you prefer. For <code>CIDFallBack</code> the mapping <bold>must</bold> be a TrueType
font or TrueType collection, it cannot be a Postscript CIDFont file.</p>
<p>
As with any font containing large numbers of glyphs, DroidSansFallback.ttf is
quite large (~3.5Mb at the of writing). If this is space you cannot afford in
your use of Ghostscript, you can simply delete the file from:
<code>Resource/CIDFSubst/DroidSansFallback.ttf</code>. The build system will cope with the
file being removed, and the initialization code will avoid adding the internal
fall back mapping if the file is missing.</p>
<p>
If DroidSansFallback.ttf is removed, and no other <code>CIDFallBack</code> mapping is supplied,
the final "fall back" is to use a "dumb" bullet CIDFont, called <code>ArtifexBullet</code>. As
the name suggests, this will result in all the glyphs from a missing CIDFont being replaced with
a simple bullet point.</p>
<p>
This type of generic fall back CIDFont substitution can be very useful for
viewing and proofing jobs, but may not be appropriate for a "production"
workflow, where it is expected that <b>only</b> the original font should be
used. For this situation, you can supply Ghostscript with the command line option:
<code>-dPDFNOCIDFALLBACK</code>. By combining <code>-dPDFNOCIDFALLBACK</code> with <code>-dPDFSTOPONERROR</code>
a production workflow can force a PDF with missing CIDFonts to error, and avoid
realising a CIDFont was missing only after printing.</p>
<p>
The directory in which the fallback TrueType font or collection can be specified by the
command line parameter <code>-sCIDFSubstPath="path/to/TTF"</code>, or with the environment
variable <code>CIDFSUBSTPATH</code>. The file name of the substitute TrueType font can be
specified using the command line parameter <code>-sCIDFSubstFont="TTF file name"</code> or
the environment variable <code>CIDFSUBSTFONT</code>.</p>
<h4><a name="ExplicitCIDFontSubstitution"></a>Explicit CIDFont Substitution</h4>
<p>Substitution of CID font resources is controlled, by default, by the Ghostscript
configuration file <code>Resource/Init/cidfmap</code>, which defines a CID font resource map.</p>
<p>
The file forms a table of records, each of which should use one of three formats,
explained below. Users may modify <code>Resource/Init/cidfmap</code> to configure
Ghostscript for a specific need. Note that the default Ghostscript build includes
such configuration and resource files in a rom file system built into the executable.
So, to ensure your changes have an effect, you should do one of the following: rebuild
the executable; use the "-I" command line option to add the directory containing your
modified file to Ghostscript's search path; or, finally, build Ghostscript to use disk
based resources.</p>
<h4>Format 1</h4>
<p> To substitute a CID font resource with another CID font resource, add a record like this :</p>
<blockquote><code>
/Substituted /Original ;
</code></blockquote>
<p>where <code>Substituted</code> is a name of CID font resource being used
by a document, and <code>Original</code> is a name of an available
CID font resource. Please pay attention that both them must be
designed for same character collection. In other words, you
cannot substitute a Japanese CID font resource with a Korean CID font resource,
etc. CMap resource names must not appear in
<code>lib/cidfmap</code>. The trailing semicolon and the space before it
are both required.</p>
<h4>Format 2</h4>
<p>To substitute (emulate) a CID font resource with a TrueType font file, add a record like this :</p>
<blockquote><code>
/Substituted << keys&values >> ;
</code></blockquote>
<p>Where <code>keys&values</code> are explained in the table below.</p>
<table>
<tr valign="top"> <th>Key</th>
<th>Type</th>
<th>Description</th></tr>
<tr valign="top"> <td><code>/Path</code></td>
<td>string</td>
<td>A path to a TrueType font file. This must be an absolute path.
If using <code><a href="#Safer">-dSAFER</a></code>, the directory
containing the font file must be on one of the permitted paths.</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"> <td><code>/FileType</code></td>
<td>name</td>
<td>Must be <code>/TrueType</code>.</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"> <td><code>/SubfontID</code></td>
<td>integer</td>
<td>(optional) Index of the font in font collection, such as TTC.
This is ignored if <code>Path</code> doesn't specify a collection.
The first font in a collection is 0.
Default value is 0.</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"> <td><code>/CSI</code>
<td>array of 2 or 3 elements
<td>(required) Information for building <code>CIDSystemInfo</code>.
<p>
If the array consists of 2 elements,
the first element is a string, which specifies <code>Ordering</code>;
the second element is a number, which specifies <code>Supplement</code>.
<p>
If the array consists of 3 elements,
the first element is a string, which specifies <code>Registry</code>;
the second element is a string, which specifies <code>Ordering</code>;
the third element is a number, which specifies <code>Supplement</code>.
</table>
<p>
Currently only CIDFontType 2 can be emulated with a TrueType font.
The TrueType font must contain enough characters to cover an
Adobe character collection, which is specified in <code>Ordering</code> and used in documents.</p>
<h4>Format 3</h4>
<p> To point Ghostscript at a specific CIDFont file outside it's "normal" resource search path :</p>
<blockquote><code>
/CIDName (path/to/cid/font/file) ;
</code></blockquote>
<p>where <code>CIDName</code> is a name of CID font resource being used
by a document, and <code>"path/to/cid/font/file"</code> is the path to the
Postscript CIDFont file, including the file name. NOTE: the CIDFont file, when
executed by the Postscript interpreter, must result in a CIDFont resource being
defined whose CIDFontName matches the "CIDName" key for the current record.
I.E. an entry with the key /PingHei-Bold must reference a file which creates a
CIDFont resource called "PingHei-Bold". To substitute a file based CIDFont for
a differently named CIDFont, use formats 1 and 3 in combination (the order of the
entries is not important).</p>
<p>The trailing semicolon and the space before it are both required.</p>
<h4>NOTE: Environment Variables</h4>
<p>It is also possible to influence the path using standard, or your own environment variables, using
the custom Postscript operator <code>getenv</code>. Said operator takes a string parameter on the stack
which is the environment variable to interrogate, and returns either a string, containing the value of
the environment variable, and boolean <code>true</code> to indicate success, or just a boolean
<code>false</code> to indicate failure. See below for an example of its use.</p>
<p>
Examples :</p>
<blockquote><code>

<p>The win32 installer of recent version of ghostscript has a checkbox for
"Use Windows TrueType fonts for Chinese, Japanese and Korean" to optionally update
lib/cidfmap with the common CJK fonts provided by Microsoft products. The script
can also be run separately (e.g. against a network drive with windows CJK fonts):</p>
<blockquote><code>
gswin32c -q -dBATCH -sFONTDIR=c:/windows/fonts -sCIDFMAP=lib/cidfmap lib/mkcidfm.ps
</code></blockquote>
<p>
Note that the font file path uses Postscript syntax.
Because of this, backslashes in the paths must be
represented as a double backslash.</p>
<p>
This can complicate substitutions for fonts with non-Roman names.
For example, if a PDF file asks for a font with the name
<code>/#82l#82r#83S#83V#83b#83N</code>. This cannot be used directly
in a cidfmap file because the #xx notation in names is a PDF-only
encoding. Instead, try something like:</p>
<blockquote>
<code><82C68272835383568362834E>cvn << /Path
(C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/msmincho.ttc) /FileType /TrueType /SubfontID 0 /CSI
[(Japan1) 3] >> ;</code>
</blockquote>
<p>Where <code><82C68272835383568362834E></code> is the same byte
sequence converted to a hex string. This lets you specify a name
using any sequence of bytes through the encodings available for
Postscript strings.</p>
<p>
Note that loading truetype fonts directly from
<code>/Resources/CIDFont</code> is no longer supported.
There is no reliable way to generate a character ordering for truetype
fonts. The 7.0x versions of Ghostscript supported this by assuming a Japanese
character ordering. This is replaced in the 8.0x and later releases with
the more general <code>cidfmap</code> mechanism.</p>
<p>
The PDF specification requires CID font files to be embedded,
however some documents omit them. As a workaround
the PDF interpreter applies an additional substitution method when
a requested CID font resource is not embedded and it is not available.
It takes values of the keys <code>Registry</code> and <code>Ordering</code>
from the <code>CIDFontSystem</code> dictionary,
and concatenates them with a dash inserted.
For example, if a PDF CID font resource specifies
<blockquote><code>
/CIDSystemInfo << /Registry (Adobe) /Ordering (CNS1) /Supplement 1 >>
</code></blockquote>
the generated subsitituite name is <code>Adobe-CNS1</code>.
The latter may look some confusing for a font name,
but we keep it for compatibility with older Ghostscript versions,
which do so due to a historical reason.
Add a proper record to <code>lib/cidfmap</code> to provide it.</p>
<p>
Please note that when a PDF font resource specifies
<blockquote><code>
/Registry (Adobe) /Ordering (Identity)
</code></blockquote>
there is no way to determine the language properly.
If the CID font file is not embedded, the <code>Adobe-Identity</code>
record depends on the document and a correct record isn't possible when
a document refers to multiple Far East languages.
In the latter case add individual records for specific CID font names used in the document.</p>
<p>
Consequently, if you want to handle any PDF document with
non-embedded CID fonts (which isn't a correct PDF),
you need to create a suitable <code>lib/cidfmap</code> by hand,
possibly a specific one for each document.</p>
<h3><a name="UnicodeTT"></a>Using Unicode True Type fonts</h3>
<p>Ghostscript can make use of Truetype fonts with a Unicode character set.
To do so, you should generate a (<b>NOTE:</b> non-standard!) Postscript or PDF
job where the relevant text is encoded as UTF-16. Ghostscript may be used for
converting such jobs to other formats (Postscript, PDF, PXL etc).
The resulting output will be compliant with the spec (unlike the input).</p>
<p>
To render an UTF-16 encoded text, one must do the following :</p>
<ul>
<li>
Provide a True Type font with Unicode Encoding.
It must have a <code>cmap</code> table with
<code>platformID</code> equals to 3 (Windows),
and <code>SpecificID</code> eqials to 1 (Unicode).</li>
<li>
Describe the font in <code>Resource/Init/cidfmap</code>
with special values for the <code>CSI</code> key :
<code>[(Artifex) (Unicode) 0]</code>.</li>
<li>
In the PS or PDF job combine the font
with one of CMap <code>Identity-UTF16-H</code>
(for the horizontal writing mode)
or <code>Identity-UTF16-V</code>
(for the vertical writing mode).
Those CMaps are distributed with Ghostscript
in <code>Resource/CMap</code>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Please note that <code>/Registry (Adobe) /Ordering (Identity)</code>
won't properly work for Unicode documents,
especially for the searchability feature
(see <a href="#CIDFontSubstitution">CID font substitution</a>).</p>

<p>
You can change in which directory Ghostscript creates temporary files by
setting the <code>TMPDIR</code> or <code>TEMP</code> environment
variable to the name of the directory you want used. Ghostscript currently
doesn't do a very good job of deleting temporary files if it exits because
of an error; you may have to delete them manually from time to time.</p>
<hr>
<h2><a name="Platforms"></a>Notes on specific platforms</h2>
<h3><a name="Word size"></a>Word size (32 or 64 bits)</h3>
<p>
The original PostScript language specification, while not stating a specific word sise,
defines 'typical' limits which make it clear that it was intended to run as a 32-bit
environment. Ghostscript was originally coded that way, and the heritage remains
within the code base.
</p>
<p>
Because the Ghostscript PDF interpreter is currently written in PostScript, it proved
necessary to add support for 64-bit integers so that we could process PDF files which
exceed 2GB in size. This is the only real purpose in adding support for large integers,
however since that time, we have made some efforts to allow for the use of 64-bit words; in
particular the use of integers, but also lifting the 64K limit on strings and arrays,
among other areas.
</p>
However this is, obviously, dependent on the operating system and compiler support
available. Not all builds of Ghostscript will support 64-bit integers, though some
32-bit builds (eg Windows) will.
<p>
Even when the build supports 64-bit words, you should be aware that there are areas
of Ghostscript which do not support 64-bit values. Sometimes these are dependent
on the build and other times they are inherent in the architecture of Ghostscript (the graphics library does not
support 64-bit co-ordinates in device space for example, and most likely never will).
</p>
<p>
Note that the extended support for 64-bit word size can be disabled by executing 'true .setcpsimode',
This is important for checking the output of the Quality Logic test suite (and possibly other
test suites) as the tests make assumptions about the sizes of integers (amongst other things).
You can run /ghostpdl/Resource/Init/gs_cet.ps to change Ghostscript's behaviour so
that it matches the observed behaviour of Adobe CPSI interpreters.

<h3><a name="VMS"></a>VMS</h3>
<ul>
<li>To be able to specify switches and file names when invoking the
interpreter, define <code>gs</code> as a foreign command:</li>
<blockquote>
<code>$ gs == "$</code><em>disk</em><code>:[</code><em>directory</em><code>]gs.exe</code>"
</blockquote>
<p>
where the "<em>disk</em>" and "<em>directory</em>" specify where
the Ghostscript executable is located. For instance,</p>
<blockquote><code>
$ gs == "$dua1:[ghostscript]gs.exe"
</code></blockquote>
<li>On VMS systems, the last character of each "directory" name indicates
what sort of entity the "directory" refers to. If the "directory" name
ends with a colon "<code>:</code>", it is taken to refer to a logical
device, for instance</li>
<blockquote><code>
$ define ghostscript_device dua1:[ghostscript_510]<br>
$ define gs_lib ghostscript_device:
</code></blockquote>
<p>
If the "directory" name ends with a closing square bracket
"<code>]</code>", it is taken to refer to a real directory, for instance</p>
<blockquote><code>
$ define gs_lib dua1:[ghostscript]
</code></blockquote>
<li>Defining the logical <code>GS_LIB</code></li>
<blockquote>
<code>$ define gs_lib</code> <em>disk</em><code>:[</code><em>directory</em><code>]</code>
</blockquote>
<p>
allows Ghostscript to find its initialization files in the Ghostscript
directory even if that's not where the executable resides.</p>
<li>Although VMS DCL itself converts unquoted parameters to upper case, C
programs such as Ghostscript receive their parameters through the C runtime
library, which forces all unquoted command-line parameters to lower case.
That is, with the command</li>
<blockquote><code>
$ gs -Isys$login:
</code></blockquote>
<p>
Ghostscript sees the switch as <code>-isys$login</code>,
which doesn't work. To preserve the case of switches, quote them like
this:</p>
<blockquote><code>
$ gs "-Isys$login:"
</code></blockquote>
<li>If you write printer output to a file with
<code>-sOutputFile=</code> and then want to print the file later, use
"<code>PRINT/PASSALL</code>".</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>PDF files (or PostScript files that use the
<code>setfileposition</code> operator) must be "stream LF" type files to
work properly on VMS systems. (<b><em>Note:</em></b> This definitely matters
if Ghostscript was compiled with DEC C; we are not sure of the situation if
you use <code>gcc</code>.) Because of this, if you transfer files by
FTP, you probably need to do one of these two things after the transfer:</li>
<ol>
<li>If the FTP transfer was in text (ASCII) mode:</li>
<blockquote>
<code>$ convert/fdl=streamlf.fdl</code> input-file output-file
</blockquote>
<p>
where the contents of the file <code>STREAMLF.FDL</code> are</p>
<blockquote>
<pre>FILE
ORGANIZATION sequential
RECORD
BLOCK_SPAN yes
CARRIAGE_CONTROL carriage_return
FORMAT stream_lf
</pre></blockquote>
<li>If the FTP transfer was in binary mode:</li>
<blockquote><code>
$ set file/attribute=(rfm:stmlf)
</code></blockquote>
</ol>
</ul>
<h4><a name="VMS_X_Windows"></a>Using X Windows on VMS</h4>
<p>
If you are using on an X Windows display, you can set it up with the node
name and network transport, for instance</p>
<blockquote><code>
$ set display/create/node="doof.city.com"/transport=tcpip
</code></blockquote>
<p>
and then run Ghostscript by typing <code>gs</code> at the command line.</p>
<h3><a name="MS_Windows"></a>MS Windows</h3>
<p>
The name of the Ghostscript command line executable on MS Windows is
<code>gswin32c</code>/<code>gswin64c</code> so use this instead of the
plain '<code>gs</code>' in the quickstart examples.</p>
<p>
To run the batch files in the ghostscript <code>lib</code> directory,
you must add <em>gs\</em><code>bin</code> and
<em>gs\</em><code>lib</code> to the <code>PATH</code>, where
<em>gs</em> is the top-level Ghostscript directory.</p>
<p>
When passing options to ghostcript through a batch file wrapper such as
<code>ps2pdf.bat</code> you need to substitute '#' for '=' as the separator
between options and their arguments. For example:</p>
<blockquote><pre>
ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE#a4 file.ps file.pdf
</pre></blockquote>
<p>Ghostscript treats '#' the same internally, and the '=' is mangled by
the command shell.</p>
<p>
There is also an older version for MS Windows called just <code>gswin32</code>
that provides its own window for the interactive postscript prompt.
The executable <code>gswin32c</code>/<code>gswin64c</code> is usually the better
option since it uses the native command prompt window.</p>
<p>
For printer devices, the default output is the default printer.
This can be modified as follows.</p>
<blockquote>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sOutputFile="%printer%printer name"</code></dt>
<dd>Output to the named printer. If your printer is named "HP DeskJet 500"
then you would use <code>-sOutputFile="%printer%HP DeskJet 500"</code>.</dd>
</dl>
</blockquote>

<h4><a name="X_resources"></a>X resources</h4>
<ul>
<li>
To set X resources, put them in a file (such as
<code>~/.Xdefaults</code> on Unix) in a form like this:</li>
<blockquote><table>
<tr><td><code>Ghostscript*geometry:</code></td><td><code> </code></td><td><code>595x842-0+0</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>Ghostscript*xResolution:</code></td><td><code> </code></td><td><code>72</code></td></tr>
<tr><td><code>Ghostscript*yResolution:</code></td><td><code> </code></td><td><code>72</code></td></tr>

<p>
Then merge these resources into the X server's resource database:</p>
<blockquote><code>
xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults
</code></blockquote>
<li>
Ghostscript doesn't look at the default system background and foreground
colors; if you want to change the background or foreground color, you must
set them explicitly for Ghostscript. This is a deliberate choice, so that
PostScript documents will display correctly by default -- with white as
white and black as black -- even if text windows use other colors.</li>
<li>
The <code>geometry</code> resource affects only window placement.</li>
<li>
Resolution is expressed in pixels per inch (1 inch = 25.4mm).</li>
<li>
The font tolerance gives the largest acceptable difference in height of the
screen font, expressed as a percentage of the height of the desired font.</li>
<li>
The <code>palette</code> resource can be used to restrict Ghostscript to
using a grayscale or monochrome palette.</li>
<li>
<code>maxRGBRamp</code> and
<code>maxGrayRamp</code> control the maximum number of
colors that ghostscript allocates ahead of time for the dither cube (ramp).
Ghostscript never preallocates more than half the cells in a colormap.
<code>maxDynamicColors</code> controls the maximum
number of colors that Ghostscript will allocate dynamically in the
colormap.</li>
</ul>
<h4><a name="X_server_bugs"></a>Working around bugs in X servers</h4>
<p>
The "<code>use</code>..." resources exist primarily to work around bugs
in X servers.</p>
<ul>
<li> Old versions of DEC's X server (DECwindows) have bugs that
require setting <code>useXPutImage</code> or
<code>useXSetTile</code> to
<code>false</code>.</li>
<li> Some servers do not implement backing pixmaps properly, or do not
have enough memory for them. If you get strange behavior or "out
of memory" messages, try setting
<code>useBackingPixmap</code> to
<code>false</code>.</li>
<li> Some servers do not implement tiling properly. This appears
as broad bands of color where dither patterns should appear. If
this happens, try setting
<code>useXSetTile</code> to
<code>false</code>.</li>
<li> Some servers do not implement bitmap or pixmap displaying properly.
This may appear as white or black rectangles where characters
should appear; or characters may appear in "inverse video" (for
instance, white on a black rectangle rather than black on white).
If this happens, try setting
<code>useXPutImage</code> to
<code>false</code>.</li>
</ul>
<h4><a name="X_device_parameters"></a>X device parameters</h4>
<p>
In addition to the device parameters recognized by <a
href="Language.htm#Device_parameters">all devices</a>, Ghostscript's X
driver provides parameters to adjust its performance. Users will rarely
need to modify these. Note that these are parameters to be set with the
<code>-d</code> switch in the command line (e.g.,
<code>-dMaxBitmap=10000000</code>), not resources to be defined in the
<code>~/.Xdefaults</code> file.</p>
<dl>
<dt><code>AlwaysUpdate <boolean></code></dt>
<dd>If <code>true</code>, the driver updates the screen after each
primitive drawing operation; if <code>false</code> (the default), the
driver uses an intelligent buffered updating algorithm.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>MaxBitmap <integer></code></dt>
<dd>If the amount of memory required to hold the pixmap for the window is no
more than the value of <code>MaxBitmap</code>, the driver will draw to a
pixmap in Ghostscript's address space (called a "client-side pixmap") and
will copy it to the screen from time to time; if the amount of memory
required for the pixmap exceeds the value of <code>MaxBitmap</code>, the
driver will draw to a server pixmap. Using a client-side pixmap usually
provides better performance -- for bitmap images, possibly much better
performance -- but since it may require quite a lot of RAM (e.g., about 2.2
Mb for a 24-bit 1024x768 window), the default value of
<code>MaxBitmap</code> is 0.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>MaxTempPixmap, MaxTempImage <integer></code></dt>
<dd>These control various aspects of the driver's buffering behavior. For
details, please consult the source file <code>gdevx.h</code>.</dd>

<h3><a name="SCO_Unix"></a>SCO Unix</h3>

<dd>Causes Ghostscript to read <em>filename</em> and treat its contents the
same as the command line. (This was intended primarily for getting around
DOS's 128-character limit on the length of a command line.) Switches or
file names in the file may be separated by any amount of white space
(space, tab, line break); there is no limit on the size of the file.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>--</code> <em>filename arg1 ...</em>
<br><code>-+</code> <em>filename arg1 ...</em></dt>
<dd>Takes the next argument as a file name as usual, but takes all
remaining arguments (even if they have the syntactic form of switches) and
defines the name <code>ARGUMENTS</code> in userdict (not systemdict) as
an array of those strings, <em>before</em> running the file. When
Ghostscript finishes executing the file, it exits back to the shell.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>

</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-</code>
<br><code>-_</code></dt>
<dd>These are not really switches: they tell Ghostscript to read from
standard input, which is coming from a file or a pipe,
with or without buffering.
On some systems, Ghostscript may read the input one character at a time,
which is useful for programs such as ghostview that generate input for
Ghostscript dynamically and watch for some response, but can slow processing.
If performance is significantly slower than with a named file,
try '<code>-_</code>' which always reads the input in blocks.
However, '<code>-</code>' is equivalent on most systems.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-c</code> <em>token ...</em>
<br><code>-c</code> <em>string ...</em></dt>
<dd>Interprets arguments as PostScript code up to the next argument that
begins with "<code>-</code>" followed by a non-digit, or with
"<code>@</code>". For example, if the file <code>quit.ps</code>
contains just the word "<code>quit</code>", then
<code>-c quit</code> on the command line is equivalent to
<code>quit.ps</code> there. Each argument must be valid PostScript,
either individual tokens as defined by the <code>token</code> operator,
or a string containing valid PostScript.
<p>
Because Ghostscript must initialize the PostScript environment
before executing the commands specified by this option it should
be specified after other setup options. Specifically this option
'bind's all operations and sets the systemdict to readonly.</p>

It is recommeded that this is used only for simple values -- use

arrays or dictionaries.
<br>Note that these values are defined <b>before</b> other names in

<br><code>-s</code><em>name</em><code>=</code><em>string</em></dt>
<dd>Define a name in systemdict with a given string as value. This is
different from <code>-d</code>. For example, <code>-dXYZ=35</code>
on the command line is equivalent to the program fragment</dd>
<blockquote><code>
/XYZ 35 def

<blockquote><code>
/XYZ (35) def
</code></blockquote>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-p</code><em>name</em><code>=</code><em>string</em></dt>
<dd>Define a name in systemdict with the parsed version of the given string as value. The string takes a parameter definition in (something very close to) postscript format.
This allows more complex structures to be passed in than is possible with <code>-d</code> or <code>-s</code>. For example:
<blockquote><code>
-pFoo="<< /Bar[1 2 3]/Baz 0.1 /Whizz (string) /Bang <0123> >>"
</code></blockquote>
<p>This means that <code>-p</code> can do the job of both <code>-d</code> and <code>-s</code>. For example:</p>
<blockquote><code>
-dDownScaleFactor=3
</code></blockquote>
<p>can be equivalently performed by</p>
<blockquote><code>
-pDownScaleFactor=3
</code></blockquote>
and
<blockquote><code>
-sPAPERSIZE=letter

<p>Note, that there are some 'special' values that should be set using <code>-s</code>, not <code>-p</code>, such as <code>DEVICE</code> and <code>DefaultGrayProfile</code>. Broadly, only use <code>-p</code> if you cannot set what you want using <code>-s</code> or <code>-d</code>.</p>
<p>Also, internally, after setting an parameter with <code>-p</code> we perform an <code>initgraphics</code> operation. This is required to allow changes in parameters such as <code>HWResolution</code> to take effect.

As noted above, <code>-d</code> and <code>-s</code> define initial
values for PostScript names. Some of these names are parameters that
control the interpreter or the graphics engine. You can also use
<code>-d</code> or <code>-s</code> to define a value for any device
parameter of the initial device (the one defined with
<code>-sDEVICE=</code>, or the default device if this switch is not
used). For example, since the <code>ppmraw</code> device has a numeric
<code>GrayValues</code> parameter that controls the number of bits per
component, <code>-sDEVICE=ppmraw -dGrayValues=16</code> will make this
the default device and set the number of bits per component to 4 (log2(16)).</p>
<h4><a name="Rendering_parameters"></a>Rendering parameters</h4>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dCOLORSCREEN
<br>-dCOLORSCREEN=0
<br>-dCOLORSCREEN=false</code></dt>
<dd>On high-resolution devices (at least 150 dpi resolution, or
<code>-dDITHERPPI</code> specified), <code>-dCOLORSCREEN</code>
forces the use of separate halftone screens with different angles for CMYK
or RGB if halftones are needed (this produces the best-quality output);
<code>-dCOLORSCREEN=0</code> uses separate screens with the same
frequency and angle; <code>-dCOLORSCREEN=false</code> forces the use of
a single binary screen. The default if <code>COLORSCREEN</code> is not
specified is to use separate screens with different angles if the device
has fewer than 5 bits per color, and a single binary screen (which is never
actually used under normal circumstances) on all other devices.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dDITHERPPI=</code><em>lpi</em></dt>
<dd>Forces all devices to be considered high-resolution, and forces use of
a halftone screen or screens with <em>lpi</em> lines per inch, disregarding
the actual device resolution. Reasonable values for <em>lpi</em> are
<b><em>N</em></b>/5 to <b><em>N</em></b>/20, where <b><em>N</em></b> is the
resolution in dots per inch.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dInterpolateControl=</code><em>control_value</em></dt>
<dd>This allows control of the image interpolation.
<p>
By default <code>InterpolateControl</code> is 1 and the image rendering
for images that have <code>/Interpolate true</code> are interpolated to
the full device resolution. Otherwise, images are rendered using the nearest
neighbour scaling (Bresenham's line algorithm through the image, plotting
the closest texture coord at each pixel). When downscaling this results
in some source pixels not appearing at all in the destination. When upscaling,
each source pixels will cover at least one destination pixel.</p>
<p>
When the <em>control_value</em> is 0 no interpolation is performed, whether
or not the file has images with <code>/Interpolate true</code>.</p>
<p>
When the <em>control_value</em> is greater than 1 interpolation is performed for
images with <code>/Interpolate true</code> as long as the image scaling
factor on either axis is larger than the <em>control_value</em>. Also, the
interpolation only produces images that have <em>(device resolution / control_value)</em>
maximum resolution rather than full device resolution. This allows for a performance
vs. quality tradeoff since the number of pixels produced by the interpolation
will be a fraction of the interpolated pixels at full device resolution. Every source
pixel will contribute partially to the destination pixels.</p>
<p>
When the <code>InterpolateControl</code> <em>control_value</em> is less than 0
interpolation is <b>forced</b> as if all images have <code>/Interpolate true</code>,
and the interpolation is controlled by the absolute value of the <em>control_value</em>
as described above. Thus, <code>-dInterpolateControl=-1</code> forces all images
to be interpolated at full device resolution.</p>
<p>
Computationally, image interpolation is much more demanding than without
interpolation (lots of floating point muliplies and adds for every output
pixel vs simple integer additions, subtractions, and shifts).</p>
<p>
In all but special cases image interpolation uses a Mitchell filter function
to scale the contributions for each output pixel. When upscaling, every output
pixel ends up being the weighted sum of 16 input pixels, When downscaling more
source pixels will contribute to the interpolated pixels. Every source pixel has
some effect on the output pixels.</p>

<dl>
<dt><code>-dDOINTERPOLATE</code></dt>
<dd>This option still works, but is deprecated, and is the equivalent of
<code>-dInterpolateControl=-1</code>.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dNOINTERPOLATE</code></dt>
<dd>
This option still works, but is deprecated and is

</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dTextAlphaBits=</code><em>n</em></dt>
<dt><code>-dGraphicsAlphaBits=</code><em>n</em></dt>
<dd>These options control the use of subsample antialiasing. Their use is highly recommended for producing high quality rasterizations. The subsampling box size <em>n</em> should be 4 for optimum output, but smaller values can be used for faster rendering. Antialiasing is enabled separately for text and graphics content.
Allowed values are 1, 2 or 4.
<p>
Note that because of the way antialiasing blends the edges of shapes into the background when
they are drawn some files that rely on joining separate filled polygons together to cover
an area may not render as expected with <code>GraphicsAlphaBits</code> at 2 or 4. If you encounter
strange lines within solid areas, try rendering that file again with
<code>-dGraphicsAlphaBits=1</code>.</p>
<p>Further note; because this feature relies upon rendering the input it is incompatible, and will generate
an error on attempted use, with any of the vector output devices.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dAlignToPixels=</code><em>n</em></dt>
<dd>Chooses glyph alignent to integral pixel boundaries (if set to the value 1)
or to subpixels (value 0). Subpixels are a smaller raster grid
which is used internally for text antialiasing.
The number of subpixels in a pixel usually is <code>2^TextAlphaBits</code>,
but this may be automatically reduced for big characters to save space
in character cache.
<p>
The parameter has no effect if <code>-dTextAlphaBits=1</code>.
Default value is 0.</p>
<p>
Setting <code>-dAlignToPixels=0</code> can improve rendering
of poorly hinted fonts, but may impair the appearance of well-hinted fonts.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dGridFitTT=</code><em>n</em></dt>
<dd> This specifies the initial value for the implementation specific
user parameter <a href="Language.htm#GridFitTT">GridFitTT</a>.
It controls grid fitting of True Type fonts
(Sometimes referred to as "hinting", but strictly speaking
the latter is a feature of Type 1 fonts).
Setting this to 2 enables automatic grid fitting for True Type glyphs.
The value 0 disables grid fitting. The default value is 2.

<dt><code>-dUseCIEColor</code></dt>
<dd>Set UseCIEColor in the page device dictionary, remapping device-dependent
color values through a Postscript defined CIE color space. Document DeviceGray,
DeviceRGB and DeviceCMYK source colors will be substituted respectively by Postscript
CIEA, CIEABC and CIEDEFG color spaces. See the document
<a href="GS9_Color_Management.pdf">GS9 Color Management</a> for details on how
this option will interact with Ghostscript's ICC-based color workflow. If accurate colors

This switch is primarily useful for PDF creation using the <code>pdfwrite</code>
device when retaining the color spaces from the original document is
important.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dNOPSICC</code></dt>
<dd>Disables the automatic loading and use of an input color space that is
contained in a PostScript file as DSC comments starting with the %%BeginICCProfile:
comment. ICC profiles are sometimes embedded by applications to convey the exact
input color space allowing better color fidelity. Since the embedded ICC profiles
often use multidimensional RenderTables, color conversion may be slower than using
the Default color conversion invoked when the <code>-dUseCIEColor</code>
option is specified, therefore the <code>-dNOPSICC</code> option may result
in improved performance at slightly reduced color fidelity.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dNOINTERPOLATE</code></dt>
<dd>Turns off image interpolation, improving performance on interpolated

</dl>
<a name="ALLOWPSTRANSPARENCY"></a>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dALLOWPSTRANSPARENCY</code></dt>
<dd>
Enables the use of the Ghostscript custom transparency operators
(<a href="Language.htm#Transparency">Transparency</a>) from
Postscript input. Normally, these operators are not accessible from Postscript
jobs, being primarily intended to be called by the PDF interpreter. Using
<code>-dALLOWPSTRANSPARENCY</code> leaves them available. It is important that
these operators are used correctly, especially the order in which they are called,
otherwise unintended, even undefined behavior may result.
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dNO_TN5044</code></dt>
<dd>Turns off the TN 5044 psuedo operators. These psuedo operators are not a part
of the official Postscript specification. However they are defined in <i>Technical
Note #5044 Color Separation Conventions for PostScript Language Programs</i>.
These psuedo operators are required for some files from QuarkXPress. However some
files from Corel 9 and Illustrator 88 do not operate properly if these operators
are present.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dDOPS</code></dt>
<dd>Enables processing of Subtype /PS streams in PDF files and the DoPS operator.
DoPS has in fact been deprecated for some time. Also the "PS" operator that was
removed from the 1.3 2nd edition specification is also disabled by default, and
enabled by <code>-dDOPS</code>. Use of this option is <b>NOT</b>
recommended in security-conscious applications, as it increases the
scope for malicious code. <code>-dDOPS</code> has no effect on
processing of PostScript source files. Note: in releases 7.30 and
earlier, processing of DoPS was always enabled.</dd>
</dl>
<a name="BlackText"></a>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dBlackText</code></dt>
<dd>Forces text to be drawn with black. This occurs for text fill and
text stroke operations. PDF output created with this setting will be
updated to be drawn with gray values of 0. Type 3 fonts, which are
sometimes used for graphics, are not affected by this parameter. </dd>
</dl>
<h4><a name="Page_parameters"></a>Page parameters</h4>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dFirstPage=</code><em>pagenumber</em></dt>
<dd>Begin on the designated page of the document.
Pages of all documents in PDF collections are numbered sequentionally.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dLastPage=</code><em>pagenumber</em></dt>
<dd>Stop after the designated page of the document.
Pages of all documents in PDF collections are numbered sequentionally.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sPageList=</code><em>pagenumber</em></dt>
<dd>There are three possible values for this; even, odd or a list of pages to be processed.
A list can include single pages or ranges of pages.
Ranges of pages use the minus sign '-', individual pages and ranges of pages are separated
by commas ','. A trailing minus '-' means process all remaining pages. For example;
<p><blockquote><pre>
-sPageList=1,3,5 indicates that pages 1, 3 and 5 should be processed.
-sPageList=5-10 indicates that pages 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 should be processed.
-sPageList=1, 5-10, 12- indicates that pages 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12 onwards should be processed.
</pre></blockquote>
</p>
<p>The PDF interpreter and the other language interpreters handle these in slightly different ways. Because
PDF files enable random access to pages in the document the PDF inerpreter only interprets and renders
the required pages. PCL andPostScript cannot be handled in ths way, and so all the pages must be interpreted.
However only the requested pages are rendered, which can still lead to savings in time. Be aware that
using the '%d' syntax for OutputFile does not reflect the page number in the original document. If you
chose (for example) to process even pages by using <code>-sPageList=even</code>, then the output of
<code>-sOutputFile=out%d.png</code> would still be
out0.png, out1.png, out2.png etc......
</p>
<p>
Because the PostScript and PCL interpreters cannot determine when a document terminates, sending multple
files as input on the command line does not reset the PageList between each document, each page in the second and
subsequent documents is treated as following on directly from the last page in the first document. The PDF
interpreter, however, does not work this way. Since it knows about individual PDF files the PageList
is applied to each PDF file separately. So if you were to set <code>-sPageList=1,2</code> and
then send two PDF files, the result would be pages 1 and 2 from the first file, and then pages 1 and 2 from the second
file. The PostScript interpreter, by contrast, would only render pages 1 and 2 from the first file. This means you must
exercise caution when using this switch, and probably should not use it at all when processing a mixture of PostScript
and PDF files on the same command line.

<dt><a name="FIXEDMEDIA"></a><code>-dFIXEDMEDIA</code></dt>
<dd>Causes the media size to be fixed after initialization, forcing pages
of other sizes or orientations to be clipped. This may be useful when
printing documents on a printer that can handle their requested paper size

<dd>The page size from the PostScript file <code>setpagedevice</code> operator,
or one of the older <code>statusdict</code> page size operators (such as
<code>letter</code> or <code>a4</code>) will be rotated, scaled and centered on the
"best fit" page size from those availiable in the InputAttributes list.
The <code>-dPSFitPage</code> is most easily used to fit pages when used with the

This option is also set by the <code>-dFitPage</code> option.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dORIENT1=true
<br>-dORIENT1=false</code></dt>
<dd>Defines the meaning of the 0 and 1 orientation values for the
setpage[params] compatibility operators. The default value of
<code>ORIENT1</code> is true (set in <code>gs_init.ps</code>), which
is the correct value for most files that use setpage[params] at all,
namely, files produced by badly designed applications that "know" that the
output will be printed on certain roll-media printers: these applications
use 0 to mean landscape and 1 to mean portrait.
<code>-dORIENT1=false</code> declares that 0 means portrait and 1 means
landscape, which is the convention used by a smaller number of files
produced by properly written applications.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=</code><em>w</em>

<dl>
<dt><code>-sDEFAULTPAPERSIZE=</code><em>a4</em></dt>
<dd>
This value will be used to replace the device default papersize ONLY
if the default papersize for the device is 'letter' or 'a4' serving
to insulate users of A4 or 8.5x11 from particular device defaults
(the collection of contributed drivers in Ghostscript vary as to
the default size).

<dt><code>-dFitPage</code></dt>
<dd>This is a "convenience" operator that sets the various options to perform

<dl>
<a name="NupControl"></a>
<dt><code>-sNupControl=</code><em>Nup_option_string</em></dt>
<dd>This option specifies the N-up nesting to be performed. The pages are scaled

<p>
The only option strings are as follows:
<ul>
<li>
<dt><code>-sNupControl=</code><em>number1</em><code>x</code><em>number2</em></dt>
will fit <em>number1</em> nested pages across the master page, and <em>number2</em>
down the master page, from the upper left, then to the right to fill the row, moving down
to the leftmost place on the next row until the nest is complete.
<p>
A partially filled nest will be output when the <code>-sNupControl=</code> string is changed,
or when Ghostscript exits.
<p>
Pages are scaled to fit the requested number horizontally and vertically, maintaining the
aspect ratio. If the scaling selected for fitting the nested pages leaves space horizontally
on the master page, the blank area will be added to the left and right of the <b>entire</b>
row of nested pages. If the fit results in vertical space, the blank area will be added
above and below <b>all</b> of the rows.
</li>
<li>
<dt><code>-sNupControl=</code></dt>
An empty string will turn off nesting. If there are any nested pages on the master page,
the partially filled master page will be output.

<dt><code>-sSUBSTFONT=</code><em>fontname</em></dt>
<dd>Causes the given font to be substituted for all unknown fonts, instead
of using the normal intelligent substitution algorithm. Also, in this
case, the font returned by <code>findfont</code> is the actual font
named <em>fontname</em>, not a copy of the font with its
<code>FontName</code> changed to the requested one.
THIS OPTION SHOULD NOT BE USED WITH HIGH LEVEL (VECTOR) DEVICES, such as
<code>pdfwrite</code>, because it prevents such devices from
providing the original font names in the output document. The

<p>
Adobe specifies <code>GenericResourceDir</code> to be an absolute path
to a single resource directory. Ghostscript instead maintains
multiple resource directories and uses an extended method for finding
resources, which is explained in
<a href="#PS_resources">"Finding PostScript Level 2 resources"</a>.</p>
<p>
Due to the extended search method, Ghostscript uses <code>GenericResourceDir</code>
only as a default directory for resources being not installed.
Therefore <code>GenericResourceDir</code> may be considered as a place
where new resources to be installed. The default implementation of the function
<code>ResourceFileName</code> uses <code>GenericResourceDir</code> when
(1) it is an absolute path, or (2) the resource file is absent.
The extended search method does not call <code>ResourceFileName</code> .</p>

<p>
Note that this redirects PostScript output to %stdout but <b>does not</b>
change the destination FILE of device output as with <code>-sOutputFile=-</code>

<dt><code>-sDeviceNProfile=</code><em>filename</em></dt>
<dd>Associate a DeviceN color space contained in a PS or PDF
document with an ICC profile. Note that neither PS nor PDF provide
in-document ICC profile definitions for DeviceN color spaces.
With this interface it is possible to provide this definition.
The colorants tag order in the ICC profile defines the lay-down
order of the inks associated with the profile. A windows-based
tool for creating these source profiles is contained in
./toolbin/color/icc_creator.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sOutputICCProfile=</code><em>filename</em></dt>
<dd>Set the ICC profile that will be associated with
the output device. Care should be taken to ensure that the
number of colorants associated with the device is the same
as the profile. If this is not set, an appropriate profile
(i.e. one with the proper number of colorants) will be
selected from those in the directory specified by ICCProfilesDir (see below).
Note that if the output device is CMYK + spot colorants, a CMYK
profile can be used to provide color management for the CMYK colorants only.
In this case, spot colors will pass through unprocessed assuming the
device supports those colorants. It is also possible for these devices to
specify NCLR ICC profiles for output.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sICCOutputColors=</code><em>"Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, Orange, Violet"</em></dt>
<dd>For the psdcmyk and tiffsep separation devices, the device ICC profile can
be an NCLR profile, which means something that includes non-traditional inks
like Orange, Violet, etc. In this case, the list of the colorant names in the
order that they exist in the profile must be provided with this command line
option. Note that if a colorant name that is specified for the profile occurs also within
the document (e.g. "Orange" above), then these colorants will be associated with
the same separation. It is possible through a compile time option LIMIT_TO_ICC
defined in gdevdevn.h to restrict the output colorants of the psdcmyk and tiffsep
device to the colorants of the ICC profile or to allow additional spot colorants
in the document to be created as different separations. If restricted, the other
spot colorants will go through the alternate tint transform and then be mapped to
the color space defined by the NCLR profile. If an NCLR ICC profile is specified
and ICCOutputColors is not used, then a set of default names will be used for
the extra colorants (non-CMYK) in the profile.</dd>

<dl>
<dt><code>-sProofProfile=</code><em>filename</em></dt>
<dd>
Enable the specificiation of a proofing profile that will make the
color management system link multiple profiles together to emulate the
device defined by the proofing profile. See the document
<a href="GS9_Color_Management.pdf">GS9 Color Management</a> for details about this option.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sDeviceLinkProfile=</code><em>filename</em></dt>
<dd>Define a device link profile. This profile is used following
the output device profile. Care should be taken to ensure that the
output device process color model is the same as the output color
space for the device link profile. In addition, the color space of
the OutputICCProfile should match the input color space of the device
link profile. For example, the following would be a valid specification
-sDEVICE=tiff32nc -sOutputICCProfile=srgb.icc -sDeviceLinkProfile=linkRGBtoCMYK.icc.
In this case, the output device's color model is CMYK (tiff32nc) and the colors
are mapped through sRGB and through a devicelink profile that maps sRGB to
CMYK values. See the document
<a href="GS9_Color_Management.pdf">GS9 Color Management</a> for details about this option.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sNamedProfile=</code><em>filename</em></dt>
<dd>Define a structure that is to be used by the color management
module (CMM) to provide color management of named colors. While
the ICC does define a named color format, this structure can in
practice be much more general. Many developers wish to use
their own proprietary-based format for spot color management.
This command option is for developer use when an implementation
for named color management is designed for the function
gsicc_transform_named_color located in gsicccache.c . An example
implementation is currently contained in the code for the handling of both
Separation and DeviceN colors. For the general user this command option
should really not be used.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sBlendColorProfile=</code><em>filename</em></dt>
<dd>With the PDF transparency imaging model, a color space can
be specified within which the color blending operations are to
take place. Some files lack this specification, in which case
the blending occurs in the output device's native color space. This
dependency of blending color space on the device color model
can be avoided by using the above command to force a specific
color space in which to perform the blending. </dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dColorAccuracy=</code><em>0/1/2</em></dt>
<dd>Set the level of accuracy that should be used. A setting of 0 will result in less accurate
color rendering compared to a setting of 2. However, the creation of a transformation
will be faster at a setting of 0 compared to a setting of 2.
Default setting is 2.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dRenderIntent=</code><em>0/1/2/3</em></dt>
<dd>Set the rendering intent that should be used with the

options 0, 1, 2, and 3 correspond to the ICC intents of Perceptual, Colorimetric,
Saturation, and Absolute Colorimetric.</dd>

<dl>
<dt><code>-dKPreserve=</code><em>0/1/2</em></dt>
<dd>Specify if black preservation should be used when mapping
from CMYK to CMYK. When using littleCMS as the CMM, the code 0
corresponds to no preservation, 1 corresponds to the PRESERVE_K_ONLY approach
described in the littleCMS documentation and 2 corresponds to the
PRESERVE_K_PLANE approach. This is only valid when using littleCMS for
color management.</dd>

<dt><code>-sGraphicICCProfile=</code><em>filename</em></dt>
<dd>Set the ICC profile that will be associated with
the output device for vector-based graphics (e.g. Fill,

</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dOverrideICC</code></dt>
<dd>Override any ICC profiles contained in the source
document with the profiles specified by
sDefaultGrayProfile, sDefaultRGBProfile, sDefaultCMYKProfile.
Note that if no profiles are specified for the default
Device color spaces, then
the system default profiles will be used. For detailed override
control in the specification of source colors see
<a href="#SourceObjectICC">SourceObjectICC</a>.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><a name="SourceObjectICC"></a><code>-sSourceObjectICC=</code><em>filename</em></dt>
<dd>
This option provides an extreme level of override control to
specify the source color spaces and rendering intents to use
with graphics, images and text for both RGB and CMYK source
objects. The specification is made through a file that contains
on a line a key name to specify the object type (e.g. Image_CMYK)
followed by an ICC profile file name, a rendering intent
number (0 for perceptual, 1 for colorimetric, 2 for saturation,
3 for absolute colorimetric) and information for black point compensation,
black preservation, and source ICC override. It is also possible to turn
off color management for certain object types, use device link profiles for
object types and do custom color replacements. An example file is given in
./gs/toolbin/color/src_color/objsrc_profiles_example.txt.
Profiles to demonstrate this method of specification are also
included in this folder. Note that if objects are colorimetrically
specified through this mechanism other operations like -dImageIntent,
-dOverrideICC, have no affect. See further details in the document
<a href="GS9_Color_Management.pdf">GS9 Color Management</a>.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dDeviceGrayToK=</code><em>true/false</em></dt>
<dd>
By default, Ghostscript will map DeviceGray color spaces to
pure K when the output device is CMYK based. This may not
always be desired. In particular, it may be desired to map
from the gray ICC profile specified by -sDefaultGrayProfile
to the output device profile. To achieve this, one should
specify -dDeviceGrayToK=false.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dUseFastColor=</code><em>true/false</em></dt>
<dd>
This is used to avoid the use of ICC profiles for source colors. This
includes those that are defined by DeviceGray, DeviceRGB and DeviceCMYK definitions
as well as ICC-based color spaces in the source document. With
UseFastColor set to true, the traditional Postscript 255 minus operations
are used to convert between RGB and CMYK with black generation and undercolor
removal mappings.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dSimulateOverprint=</code><em>true/false</em></dt>
<dd>
This option has been replaced by <code><b>-dOverprint=</b></code>
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<a name="Overprint"></a>
<dt><code>-dOverprint=</code><em>/enable | /disable | /simulate</em></dt>
<dd>
This option provides control of overprinting. The default setting is <em><b>/enable</b></em>
which allows devices such as CMYK that can support overprint to leave planes unchanged
under control of PostScript and PDF overprint settings.
<p>
The <em><b>/disable</b></em> setting ignores all overprint (and overprint mode) from the input.
<p>
If <em><b>/simulate</b></em> is set, then pages with overprint (or overprint mode) set for
CMYK or Separation colors will be internally maintained and output to RGB or Gray
devices.
<p>
Note that not all spot color overprint cases can be accurately simulated with a CMYK
only device. For example, a case where you have a spot color overprinted with CMYK
colors will be indistiguishable from a case where you have spot color equivalent
CMYK colorants overprinted with CMYK colors, even though they may need to show
significantly different overprint simulations. To obtain a full overprint simulation,
use the <em><b>/simulate</b></em> setting or the psdcmyk or tiffsep device, where the spot
colors are kept in their own individual planes.</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-dUsePDFX3Profile=</code><em>int</em></dt>
<dd>
This option enables rendering with an output intent defined in
the PDF source file. If this option is included in the command line,
source device color values (e.g DeviceCMYK, DeviceRGB, or DeviceGray)
that match the color model of the output intent will be interpreted to
be in the output intent color space. In addition, if the output device
color model matches the output intent color model, then the
destination ICC profile will be the output intent ICC profile.
If there is a mismatch between the device color model and the
output intent, the output intent profile will be used as a
proofing profile, since that is the intended rendering.
Note that a PDF document can have multiple
rendering intents per the PDF specification. As such, with
the option -dUsePDFX3Profile the first output intent
encountered will be used. It is possible to specify
a particular output intent where <em>int</em> is an
integer (a value of 0 is the same as not specifying a number).
Probing of the output intents for a particular file
is possible using extractICCprofiles.ps in ./gs/toolbin.
Finally, note that the ICC profile member entry is an option in
the output intent dictionary. In these cases, the output intent
specifies a registry and a standard profile (e.g. Fogra39). Ghostscript will
not make use of these output intents. Instead, if desired, these standard
profiles should be used with the commands specified above (e.g. -sOutputICCProfile).</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sUseOutputIntent=</code><em>string</em></dt>
<dd>Like <code>UsePDFX3Profile</code> above, this option enables rendering with an output intent defined in the
PDF source file.
<p>
This option behaves the same way as the <code>UsePDFX3Profile</code>, but the selection criteria are different.
Because its possible (as of PDF 2.0) for each page to have a different array, its not sufficient just to supply
an array index, as the same profile might potentially be at different indices in each array.</p>
<p>
Instead this option takes a string, which is first compared against the <code>OutputConditionIdentifier</code>
in each OutputIntent in the array. If the <code>OutputConditionIdentifier</code> is not a standard identifier
then it should be Custom and the <code>UseOutputIntent</code> string will be matched against the value of the
<code>Info</code> key instead. If the <code>OutputConditionIdentifier</code> or <code>Info</code> matches the
value of <code>UseOuttpuIntent</code>, then that OutputIntent is selected <b>if</b> the OutputIntent contains
a <code>DestOutputProfile</code> key.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<dl>
<dt><code>-sICCProfilesDir=</code><em>path</em></dt>
<dd>Set a directory in which to search for the above profiles.
The directory path must end with a file system delimiter.
<p>
If the user doesn't use the -sICCProfilesDir= command line option,
Ghostscript creates a default value for it by looking on the
directory paths explained in <a href="#Finding_files">How
Ghostscript finds files</a>. If the current directory is the first
path a test is made for the iccprofiles directory. Next, the remaining
paths with the string Resource in it are tested. The prefix up to
the path separator character preceding the string Resource, concatenated
with the string iccprofiles is used and if this exists, then this
path will be used for ICCProfilesDir.</p>
<p>
Note that if the build is performed with COMPILE_INITS=1,
then the profiles contained in gs/iccprofiles will be placed in
the ROM file system. If a directory is specified on the command
line using -sICCProfilesDir=, that directory is searched before
the iccprofiles/ directory of the ROM file system is searched.</p>

<dd>Define <code>\004 (^D)</code> to start a new encapsulated job used for
compatibility with Adobe PS Interpreters that ordinarily run under a job
server. The <code>-dNOOUTERSAVE</code> switch is ignored if <code>-dJOBSERVER</code>
is specified since job servers <b>always</b> execute the input PostScript
under a save level, although the <code>exitserver</code> operator can
be used to escape from the encapsulated job and execute as if the
<code>-dNOOUTERSAVE</code> was specified.
<p>
This also requires that the input be from stdin, otherwise an error will

<dd>
<strong>IMPORTANT NOTE:</strong> Ghostscript now (as of 9.50) defaults to SAFER being active.
<p>
Enables access controls on files. Access controls fall into three categories,
files from which Ghostscript is permitted to read, ones to which it is permitted
to write, and ones over which it has "control" (i.e. delete/rename). These
access controls apply to <strong>all</strong> files accessed via Ghostscript's internal
interface to the C library file handling. Whilst we have taken considerable pains to
ensure that all the code we maintain (as well as the so called "contrib" devices,
that are devices included in our release packages, but not strictly maintained by the
Ghostscript development team) uses this interface, we have no control over thirdparty
code.
<p>
This is an entirely new implementation of <code>SAFER</code> for Ghostscript versions
9.50 and later. Earlier versions (see "<a href="#OldSafer">-dOLDSAFER</a>") relied on
storing the file permission lists in Postscript VM (Virtual Memory), and only applied
file access permissions to the Postscript file related operators. It relied on restricting
the function of <code>setpagedevice</code> to avoid the device code from being manipulated
into opening arbitrary files. The application of the file permissions was done within the
internal context of the Postscript interpreter, and some other aspects of the Postscript
restrictions were applied in the Postscript environment. With so many of the feature's
capabilities relying on the Postscript context and environment, by using other (Ghostscript
specific) features maliciously, the restrictions could be overridden.
<p>
Whilst the path storage and application of the permissions is implemented entirely in C,
it is still possible for Postscript to add and remove paths from the permissions lists
(see <a href="Language.htm#.addcontrolpath">.addcontrolpath</a>) until such time as the
access controls are enabled (see <a href="Language.htm#.activatepathcontrol">.activatepathcontrol</a>),
any call to <code>.addcontrolpath</code> after <code>.activatepathcontrol</code> will result in a
<code>Fatal</code> error causing the interpreter to immediately exit.
<p>
An incompatibility exists between the pre-9.50 and 9.50 and later <code>SAFER</code>.
By removing storage and application entirely from the Postscript language
environment and internal context, SAFER is no longer affected by Postscript
<code>save</code>/<code>restore</code> operations. Previously, it was possible
to do the equivalent of:
<blockquote>
<br><code>save</code>
<br><code>.setsafe</code>
<br><code>Postscript ops</code>
<br><code>restore</code>
</blockquote>
<p>
In that sequence, the <code>Postscript ops</code> would run with <code>SAFER</code> protection
but after the restore, <code>SAFER</code> would no longer be in force. This is no longer the case.
After the call to <code>.setsafe</code> the file controls are in force until the
interpreter exits. As the 9.50 and later implementation no longer restricts the
operation of <code>setpagedevice</code>, and because this capability is <i>extremely</i>
rarely used, we feel the improvement in security warrants the small reduction in
flexibility.
<p>
Path matching is very simple: it is case sensitive, and we do not implement full featured
"globbing" or regular expression matching (such complexity would significantly
and negatively impact performance). Further, the string parameter(s) passed to the
<code>--permit-file-*</code> option must exactly match the string(s) used to reference
the file(s): for example, you cannot use a absolute path to grant permission, and
then a relative path to reference the file (or vice versa) - the path match will fail.
Similarly, you cannot grant permission through one symlink, and then reference a file
directly, or through an alternative symlink - again, the matching will fail.
<p>
The following cases are handled:
<ul>
<li>
<dt><code>"/path/to/file"</code></dt>
<p>Permits access only to the file: "/path/to/file"
</li>
<li>
<dt><code>"/path/to/directory/"</code></dt>
<p>Permits access to any file in, and only in, the directory: "/path/to/directory"
</li>
<li>
<dt><code>"/path/to/directory/*"</code></dt>
<p>Permits access to any file in the directory: "/path/to/directory" and
any child of that directory.
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Important Note for Windows Users</strong>:
<br>
The file/path pattern matching is case sensitive, even on Windows. This is a
change in behaviour compared to the old code which, on Windows, was case
<i>in</i>sensitive. This is in recognition of changes in Windows behaviour,
in that it now supports (although does not enforce) case sensitivity.
<p>
Four command line parameters permit explicit control of the paths included in
the access control lists:
<ul>
<li><dt><code>--permit-file-read=<code><em>pathlist</em></dt>
<p> Adds a path, or list of paths, to the "permit read" list. A list
of paths is a series of paths separated by the appropriate path list separator
for your platform (for example, on Unix-like systems it is ":"
and on MS Windows it is ";").
</li>
<li><dt><code>--permit-file-write=<code><em>pathlist</em></dt>
<p> Adds a path, or list of paths, to the "permit write" list. A list
of paths is a series of paths separated by the appropriate path list separator
for your platform (for example, on Unix-like systems it is ":"
and on MS Windows it is ";").
</li>
<li><dt><code>--permit-file-control=<code><em>pathlist</em></dt>
<p> Adds a path, or list of paths, to the "permit control" list. A list
of paths is a series of paths separated by the appropriate path list separator
for your platform (for example, on Unix-like systems it is ":"
and on MS Windows it is ";").
</li>
<li><dt><code>--permit-file-all=<code><em>pathlist</em></dt>
<p> Adds a path, or list of paths, to the all the above lists. A list
of paths is a series of paths separated by the appropriate path list separator
for your platform (for example, on Unix-like systems it is ":"
and on MS Windows it is ";").
</li>
</ul>
<p>
'*' may be used as a wildcard in the above paths to mean "any
character other than the directory separator. Do not use two
or more *'s without intervening characters.
<p>
Finally, paths supplied on the command line (such as those in <code>-I</code>,
<code>-sFONTPATH</code> parameters) are added to the permitted reading list.
Similarly, paths read during initialisation from <code>Fontmap</code>, <code>cidfmap</code>,
and the platform specific font file enumeration (e.g. <code>fontconfig</code> on Unix systems)
are automatically added to the permit read lists.

those given as a command line argument, or those contained on one of the paths

<p>
This mode also sets the <a href="Language.htm#LockSafetyParams">.LockSafetyParams</a>
parameter of the default device, or the device specified with the <code>-sDEVICE= </code>
switch to protect against programs that attempt to write to files using the
OutputFile device parameter. Note that since the device parameters specified
on the command line (including OutputFile) are set prior to SAFER mode,
the <code>-sOutputFile=...</code> on the command line is unrestricted.</p>
<p>
SAFER mode also prevents changing the /GenericResourceDir, /FontResourceDir
and either the /SystemParamsPassword or the /StartJobPassword.</p>
<p>
When running -dNOSAFER it is possible to perform a <code>save</code>,
followed by <code>.setsafe</code>, execute a file or procedure in SAFER mode,
then use <code>restore</code> to return to NOSAFER mode. It is possible that the
a crafted foreign file could restore back to a point when NOSAFER was in operation.</p>

<h2><a name="Improving_performance"></a>Improving performance</h2>
<p>
Ghostscript attempts to find an optimum balance between speed and memory
consumption, but there are some cases in which you may get a very large
speedup by telling Ghostscript to use more memory.</p>
<p>Please note that this discussion relates to devices which produce a bitmap format as the output.
These parameters have no effect on the vector devices, such as pdfwrite.</p>
<ul>
<li>
For raster printers and image format (jpeg*, tiff*, png* ...) devices,
performance can be 'tuned' by adjusting some of the parameters related
to banding (clist) options (refer to: <a href="Language.htm#Banding_parameters">
Banding Parameters</a>).</li>
<p>
All devices may use a display list ("clist") and use banding when rendering
PDF 1.4 transparency. This prevents allocation of excessively large amounts of
memory for the transparency buffer stack. The <code>-dMaxBitmap=</code> option
is used to control when to use the display list, and the other banding parameters
mentioned above control the band size.</p>
<p>In general, page buffer mode is faster than banded/clist mode (a full page
buffer is used when <code>-dMaxBitmap=#</code> is large enough for the entire
raster image) since there is no need to write, then interpret the clist data.</p>
<p>On a multi-core system where multiple threads can be dispatched to
individual processors/cores, banding mode may provide higher performance
since <code>-dNumRenderingThreads=#</code> can be used to take advantage of
more than one CPU core when rendering the clist. The number of threads should
generally be set to the number of available processor cores for best throughput.</p>
<p>In general, larger <code>-dBufferSpace=#</code> values provide
slightly higher performance since the per-band overhead is reduced.</p>
<li>
If you are using X Windows, setting the <code>-dMaxBitmap=</code>
parameter described <a href="#X_device_parameters">above</a> may
dramatically improve performance on files that have a lot of bitmap images.</li>
<li>
With some PDF files, or if you are using Chinese, Japanese, or other fonts with
very large character sets, adding the following sequence of switches before the
first file name may dramatically improve performance at the cost of an additional
memory. For example, to allow use of 30Mb of extra RAM use:
<code>-c 30000000 setvmthreshold -f</code>.
<p>This can also be useful in processing large documents when using a
high-level (vector) output device (like pdfwrite) that maintains significant internal
state.</p></li>
<li>
<p>
For pattern tiles that are very large, Ghostscript uses an internal display
list (memory based clist), but this can slow things down. The current default
threshold is 8Mb -- pattern tiles larger than this will be cached as clist
rather than bitmap tiles. The parameter <code>-dMaxPatternBitmap=#</code> can
be used to adjust this threshold, smaller to reduce memory requirements and
larger to avoid performance impacts due to clist based pattern handling.</p>
<p>
For example, <code>-dMaxPatternBitmap=200000</code> will use clist based
patterns for pattern tiles larger than 200,000 bytes.</p></li>

<h2><a name="Debugging"></a>Debugging</h2>
<p>
The information here describing is probably interesting only to developers.</p>
<h4><a name="Debug_switches"></a>Debug switches</h4>
<p>There are several debugging switches that are detected by the interpreter.
These switches are available whether or not Ghostscript was built with the
DEBUG macro defined to the compiler (refer to <a href="Make.htm#Debugging">
building a debugging configuration</a>).</p>
<p>Previous to 8.10, there was a single DEBUG flag, enabled with <code>-dDEBUG
</code> on the command line. Now there are several debugging flags to allow
more selective debugging information to be printed containing only what is
needed to investigate particular areas. For backward compatibilty, the
<code>-dDEBUG</code> option will set all of the subset switches.</p>
<table>
<tr><td><code>-dCCFONTDEBUG</code></td><td></td><td>Compiled Fonts</td></tr>

<p>
The PDF interpreter normally tries to repair, or ignore, all problems encountered in PDF files.
Setting <code>-dPDFSTOPONERROR</code> instead causes the interpreter to signal an error and
stop processing the PDF file, instead of printing a warning.
</p><p>
The <code>-dPDFSTOPONWARNING</code> switch behves the same, but will stop if a condition
which would normally merit a warning (instead of an error) is encountered. Note that
setting <code>-dPDFSTOPONWARNING</code> also sets <code>-dPDFSTOPONERROR</code>
</p>
<p>
The <code>-Z</code> and <code>-T</code> switches apply only
if the interpreter was <a href="Make.htm#Debugging">built for a debugging
configuration</a>. In the table below, the first column is a debugging
switch, the second is an equivalent switch (if any) and the third is its
usage.</p>

<p>In addition, calling ghostscript with <code>--debug</code> will list all the currently
defined (non visual trace) debugging flags, both in their short form (as listed
above for use with <code>-Z</code>) and in a long form, which can be used as in:
<code>--debug=tiling,alloc</code>. All the short form flags for <code>-Z</code>
have an equivalent long form. Future flags may be added with a long form only
(due to all the short form flags being used already).</p>
<h4><a name="Visual_trace"></a>Visual Trace</h4>
<p>
Visual Trace allows to view internal Ghostscript data in a graphical form
while execution of C code. Special
<a href="Lib.htm#Visual_trace">instructions</a> to be inserted into
C code for generating the output. Client application
rasterizes it into a window.</p>
<p>
Currently the rasterization is implemented for Windows only, in clients
gswin32.exe and gswin32c.exe. They open Visual Trace window when graphical
debug output appears, <code>-T</code> <a href="#Debug_switches">switch</a> is set,
and Ghostscript was <a href="Make.htm#Debugging">built</a> with DEBUG option.
There are two important incompletenesses of the implementation :</p>
<p>
1. The graphical output uses a hardcoded scale. An advanced client
would provide a scale option via user interface.</p>
<p>
2. Breaks are not implemented in the client. If you need a step-by-step
view, you should use an interactive C debugger to delay execution at breakpoints.</p>

<h2><a name="FAPI_run"></a>Running Ghostscript with third-party font renderers</h2>
<p>
Font API (FAPI) is a feature which allows to attach third-party font
renderers to Ghostscript.
This section explains how to run Ghostscript with third-party font
renderers, such as UFST. NOTE: FreeType is now the default font renderer
for Ghostscript.</p>
<p>
<em>Note: To run Ghostscript with UFST you need a license from Monotype Imaging.
Please ignore issues about UFST if you haven't got it.
</em></p>
<p>
<em>
Important note: Third-party font renderers may be incompatible
with devices that can embed fonts in their output (such as pdfwrite),
because such renderers may store fonts in a form from which Ghostscript cannot
get the necessary information for embedding, for example, the Microtype fonts supplied
with the UFST. Ghostscript can be configured to disable such renderers when such a
device is being used.
</em></p>
<p>
As of Ghostscript version 9.0, Ghostscript uses Freetype 2.4.x as the default font
scaler/renderer.</p>
<p>With this change, we added a new switch:<code>-dDisableFAPI=true</code> to revert to the older
behavior, just in case serious regression happens that cannot be resolved in a timely manner.
It is intended that this switch will be removed once the FAPI/Freetype implementation has
proven itself robust and reliable in the "real world".</p>
<p>
<em>
NOTE: With version 9.18 recently released we have, for some time, regarded FAPI/Freetype as being
the canonical glyph rendering solution for Ghostscript and associated products, and the non-FAPI
rendering to be deprecated. As such, the <code>-dDisableFAPI=true</code> option is also considered
deprecated, and should be expected to be removed shortly after the next release.
</em>
</p>
<p>
To run Ghostscript with UFST, you first need to build Ghostscript
with the UFST bridge. Refer <a href="Make.htm#UFST_build">How to build Ghostscript with UFST</a>.
Both bridges may run together.</p>
<p>
There are 2 ways to handle fonts with a third-party font renderer (FAPI).
First, you can substitute
any FAPI-handled font to a resident PostScript font, using special map files
<code>FAPIfontmap</code> and <code>FAPIcidfmap</code>.
Second, you can redirect PostScript fonts to FAPI, setting
entries in <code>FAPIconfig</code> file.</p>
<p>
Names <code>FAPIfontmap</code>, <code>FAPIcidfmap</code>, <code>FAPIconfig</code>
in this text actually are placeholders, which may be substituted with command line arguments :
<code>-sFAPIfontmap=<em>name1</em></code> <code>-sFAPIcidfmap=<em>name2</em></code>
<code>-sFAPIconfig=<em>name3</em></code>.
Ghostscript searches the specified file names as explained in
<a href="#Finding_files">How Ghostscript finds files</a>.
Default values for these arguments are equal to argument names.
When building Ghostscript with <code>COMPILE_INITS=1</code>, only default values are used.</p>
<p>
Font files, which are being handled with FAPI, may reside in any directory in your hard disk.
Paths to them to be specified in <code>FAPIfontmap</code> and
with special command line arguments, explained below.
The path may be either absolute or relative. Relative ones are being resolved from the path,
which is specified in <code>FAPIconfig</code> file.</p>
<p>
The file <code>FAPIfontmap</code> is actually special PostScript code.
It may include records of 2 types : general records
and FCO records (see below).</p>
<p>
A general record describes a font, which is being rendered with FAPI.
They must end with semicolon. Each general record is a pair.
The first element of the pair is the font name (the name that PostScript
documents use to access the font, which may differ
from real name of the font which the font file defines).
The second element is a dictionary with entries :</p>
<table>
<tr><th>Key</th>
<th>Type</th>
<th>Description</th></tr>
<tr> <td>Path</td>
<td>string</td>
<td>Absolute path to font file, or relative path to font file from the FontPath value,
being specified in <code>FAPIconfig</code>.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>FontType</td>
<td>interger</td>
<td>PostScript type for this font. Only 1 and 42 are currently allowed.
Note that this is unrelated to the real type of the font file -
the bridge will perform a format conversion.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>FAPI</td>
<td>name</td>
<td>Name of the renderer to be used with the font.
Only <code>/UFST</code> and <code>/FreeType</code> are now allowed.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>SubfontId</td>
<td>integer</td>
<td>(optional) Index of the font in font collection, such as FCO or TTC.
It is being ignored if Path doesn't specify a collection.
Note that Free Type can't handle FCO.
Default value is 0.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>Decoding</td>
<td>name</td>
<td>(optional) The name of a Decoding resource to be used with the font.
If specified, <code>lib/xlatmap</code> (see below) doesn't work for this font.</td></tr>
</table>
<p>
Example of a general FAPI font map record :</p>
<blockquote>
<code>
/FCO1 << /Path (/AFPL/UFST/fontdata/MTFONTS/PCLPS3/MT1/PCLP3__F.fco) /FontType 1 /FAPI /UFST >> ;
</code>
</blockquote>
<p>
FCO records work for UFST only.
A group of FCO records start with a line <code><em>name</em> ReadFCOfontmap:</code>,
where <code><em>name</em></code> is a name of a command line argument,
which specify a path to an FCO file. The group of FCO records
must end with the line <code>EndFCOfontmap</code>.
Each record of a group occupy a single line,
and contains a number and 1, 2 or 3 names.
The number is the font index in the FCO file, the first name
is the Postscript font name, the secong is an Encoding resource name,
and the third is a decoding resource name.</p>
<p>
Note that <code>FAPIfontmap</code> specifies only instances of
Font category. CID fonts to be listed in another map file.</p>
<p>
Ghostscript distribution includes sample map files
<code>gs/lib/FAPIfontmap</code>,
<code>gs/lib/FCOfontmap-PCLPS2</code>,
<code>gs/lib/FCOfontmap-PCLPS3</code>,
<code>gs/lib/FCOfontmap-PS3</code>,
which may be customized by the user.
The last 3 ones include an information about UFST FCO files.</p>
<p>
The file <code>FAPIcidfmap</code> defines a mapping table for
CIDFont resources. It contains records for each CID font being rendered with FAPI.
The format is similar to <code>FAPIfontmap</code>,
but dictionaries must contain few different entries :</p>
<table>
<tr><th>Key</th>
<th>Type</th>
<th>Description</th></tr>
<tr> <td>Path</td>
<td>string</td>
<td>Absolute path to font file, or relative path to font file from the CIDFontPath value,
being specified in <code>FAPIconfig</code>.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>CIDFontType</td>
<td>interger</td>
<td>PostScript type for this CID font. Only 0, 1 and 2 are currently allowed.
Note that this is unrelated to the real type of the font file -
the bridge will perform format conversion.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>FAPI</td>
<td>name</td>
<td>Name of the renderer to be used with the font.
Only <code>/UFST</code> and <code>/FreeType</code> are now allowed.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>SubfontId</td>
<td>integer</td>
<td>(optional) Index of the font in font collection, such as FCO or TTC.
It is being ignored if Path doesn't specify a collection.
Default value is 0.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>CSI</td>
<td>array of 2 elements</td>
<td>(required) Information for building <code>CIDSystemInfo</code>.
The first element is a string, which specifies <code>Ordering</code>.
The second element is a number, which specifies <code>Supplement</code>.</td></tr>
</table>
<p>
Example of FAPI CID font map record :</p>
<blockquote>
<code>
/HeiseiKakuGo-W5 << /Path (/WIN2000/Fonts/PMINGLIU.TTF) /CIDFontType 0 /FAPI /UFST /CSI [(Japan1) 2] >> ;
</code>
</blockquote>
<p>
The control file <code>FAPIconfig</code> defines 4 entries :</p>
<table>

<tr> <td>FontPath</td>
<td>string</td>
<td>Absolute path to a directory, which contains fonts. Used to resolve
relative paths in <code>FAPIfontmap</code>.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>CIDFontPath</td>
<td>string</td>
<td>Absolute path to a directory, which contains fonts to substitute to CID fonts.
Used to resolve relative paths in <code>FAPIcidfmap</code>.
It may be same or different than FontPath.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>HookDiskFonts</td>
<td>array of integers.</td>
<td>List of PS font types to be handled with FAPI.
This controls other fonts that ones listed in <code>FAPIfontmap</code>
and <code>FAPIcidfmap</code> - such ones are PS fonts installed to
Ghostscript with <code>lib/fontmap</code> or with <code>GS_FONTPATH</code>,
or regular CID font resources. Unlisted font types will be
rendered with the native Ghostscript font renderer.
Only allowed values now are 1,9,11,42. Note that 9 and 11
correspond to CIDFontType 0 and 2.</td></tr>
<tr> <td>HookEmbeddedFonts</td>
<td>array of integers.</td>
<td>List of PS font types to be handled with FAPI.
This controls fonts being embedded into a document -
either fonts or CID font resources. Unlisted font types will be
rendered with the native Ghostscript font renderer.
Only allowed values now are 1,9,11,42. Note that 9 and 11
correspond to CIDFontType 0 and 2.</td></tr>

<p>
Ghostscript distribution includes sample config files
<code>gs/lib/FAPIconfig</code>,
<code>gs/lib/FAPIconfig-FCO</code>.
which may be customized by the user.
The last ones defines the configuration
for handling resident UFST fonts only.</p>
<p>
In special cases you may need to customize the file <code>lib/xlatmap</code>. Follow instructions in it.</p>
<p>
Some UFST font collections need a path for finding an UFST plugin.
If you run UFST with such font collection,
you should run Ghostscript with a special command line argument
<code>-sUFST_PlugIn=<em>path</em></code>, where <code><em>path</em></code> specifies
a disk path to the UFST plugin file, which Monotype Imaging distributes
in <em><code>ufst/fontdata/MTFONTS/PCL45/MT3/plug__xi.fco</code></em>.
If UFST needs it and the
command line argument is not specified, Ghostscript prints a warning and searches
plugin file in the current directory.</p>
<p>
If you want to run UFST with resident UFST fonts only
(and allow Ghostscript font renderer to handle fons, which may be downloaded or embedded into documents),
you should run Ghostscript with these command line arguments :
<code>-sFCOfontfile=<em>path1</em></code> <code>-sFCOfontfile2=<em>path2</em></code>
<code>-sUFST_PlugIn=<em>path3</em></code>
<code>-sFAPIfontmap=<em>map-name</em></code> <code>-sFAPIconfig=FAPIconfig-FCO</code>
where <code><em>path1</em></code> specifies
a disk path to the main FCO file, <code><em>path2</em></code> specifies
a disk path to the Wingdings FCO file, <code><em>path3</em></code>
a disk path the FCO plugin file, <code><em>path1</em></code> is either
<code>gs/lib/FCOfontmap-PCLPS2</code>,
<code>gs/lib/FCOfontmap-PCLPS3</code>, or
<code>gs/lib/FCOfontmap-PS3</code>.
<code>FAPIcidfmap</code> works as usual, but probably you want to leave it empty
because FCO doesn't emulate CID fonts.</p>
<p>
Some configurations of UFST need a path for finding symbol set files.
If you compiled UFST with such configuration,
you should run Ghostscript with a special command line argument
<code>-sUFST_SSdir=<em>path</em></code>, where <code><em>path</em></code> specifies
a disk path to the UFST support directory, which Monotype Imagong distributes
in <em><code>ufst/fontdata/SUPPORT</code></em>. If UFST needs it and the
command line argument is not specified, Ghostscript prints a warning and searches
symbol set files in the current directory.</p>
<p>
Note that UFST and Free Type cannot handle some Ghostscript fonts because
they do not include a PostScript interpreter and therefore have stronger restrictions on
font formats than Ghostscript itself does - in particular, Type 3 fonts.
If their font types are listed in <code>HookDiskFonts</code> or in
<code>HookEmbeddedFonts</code>, Ghostscript interprets them as PS files,
then serializes font data into a RAM buffer and passes it to FAPI as
PCLEOs. (see the FAPI-related source code for details).</p>
