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.
