       pdftops  -  Portable  Document  Format (PDF) to PostScript
       converter

       pdftops [options] [PDF-file [PS-file]]

       Pdftops converts Portable Document Format (PDF)  files  to
       PostScript so they can be printed.

       Pdftops  reads  the  PDF  file,  PDF-file,  and  writes  a
       PostScript file, PS-file.  If PS-file  is  not  specified,
       pdftops  converts file.pdf to file.ps.  If PS-file is '-',
       the PostScript is sent to stdout.

       The generated PostScript is Level 2.  This means  it  will
       not  work  on  old  printers  which  only  support Level 1
       PostScript.

2 OPTIONS

       -fnumber
              Specifies the first page to print.

       -lnumber
              Specifies the last page to print.

       -noemb By  default, any Type 1 fonts which are embedded in
              the PDF file are copied into the  PostScript  file.
              This option causes pdftops to substitute base fonts
              instead.   Embedded  fonts  make  PostScript  files
              larger, but may be necessary for readable output.

       -h     Print usage information.  (-help is equivalent.)

2 BUGS

       This  is  a beta release of pdftops, and there are still a
       bunch of PDF features which I have yet to implement.
