                                     Hey, EMACS: 
First parameter, NAME, should be all caps
Second parameter, SECTION, should be 1-8, maybe w/ subsection
other parameters are allowed: see man(7), man(1)
TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
\fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
respectively.

NAME

ipetoipe - Convert between Ipe file formats

SYNOPSIS

ipetoipe ( -pdf | -xml ) { options } input-file [ output-file ]

DESCRIPTION

ipetoipe converts between the two Ipe file formats XML and PDF. Options are:

-pdf

convert to PDF format

-xml

convert to XML format

-export

do not include Ipe markup in the output file.
Warning: this means that Ipe will not be able to read the resulting output file.

-pages from-to

restrict exporting to PDF to this page range. This implies the -export option.

-view page-view

only export this single view from the document. This implies the -export option.

-markedview

create a PDF page only for the marked views of marked Ipe pages. This is for instance convenient for making handouts for slides used in a presentation. This implies the -export option.

-runlatex

run Latex even for XML output. This has the effect of including the dimensions of each text object in the XML file.

-nozip

do not compress streams in PDF or Postscript output.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

ipetoipe respects the following environment variables:

IPELATEXDIR

the directory where ipetoipe runs Pdflatex.
