NAME
pdfopen, pdfclose - manual page for pdfopen 0.4: Acrobat Reader remote control
DESCRIPTION
pdfopen
and
pdfclose
can be used to control a running instance of Acrobat Reader.
-
pdfopen [--file
<pdfname>
]
-
pdfclose [--file
<pdfname>
]
Without argument, the
pdfopen
program sends a "Ctrl-<-" to an existing X window with the name
Acrobat Reader,
and "Alt-<-" to a window with the name
AdobeReader,
if such windows exist.
pdfclose
sends a "Ctrl-w" instead.
OPTIONS
- --file <pdfname>
-
With this argument,
pdfclose
closes an existing window with the name <pdfname>, and
pdfopen
opens a window with the name <pdfname> (starting a reader if
necesary), or it reloads <pdfname> if it was already open.
- --all,--page
-
These arguments, accepted by Fabrice Popineau's Windows originals of
pdfopen
and
pdfclose,
are silently ignored.
AUTHORS
pdfopen
and
pdfclose
are written by Taco Hoekwater <taco@metatex.org>. This manpage has
been written by Frank Küster for Debian/GNU Linux and may be used,
modified and/or distributed freely by anyone.
