       pdftoppm  -  Portable  Document  Format  (PDF) to Portable
       Pixmap (PPM)

       pdftoppm [options] PDF-file PPM-root

       Pdftoppm converts Portable Document Format (PDF) files  to
       color   image  files  in  Portable  Pixmap  (PPM)  format,
       grayscale image files in Portable Graymap (PGM) format, or
       monochrome image files in Portable Bitmap (PBM) format.

       Pdftoppm  reads the PDF file, PDF-file, and writes one PPM
       file for each page, PPM-root-nnnnnn.ppm, where  nnnnnn  is
       the page number.

2 ONFIGURATION_FIL

       Pdftoppm  reads a configuration file at startup.  It first
       tries to find the user's private config  file,  ~/.xpdfrc.
       If  that  doesn't exist, it looks for a system-wide config
       file, typically /usr/local/etc/xpdfrc (but  this  location
       can be changed when pdftoppm is built).  See the xpdfrc(5)
       man page for details.

2 OPTIONS

       Many  of  the following options can be set with configura-
       tion file commands.  These are listed in  square  brackets
       with  the  description  of  the corresponding command line
       option.

       -l number
              Specifies the last page to convert.

       -r number

              150 DPI.

       -mono  Generate  a monochrome PBM file (instead of a color
              PPM file).

       -gray  Generate a grayscale PGM file (instead of  a  color
              PPM file).

       -t1lib yes | no
