PSPRESENT(1)

NAME
pspresent - fullscreen PostScript presentation tool

SYNOPSIS
pspresent [options] file.ps

DESCRIPTION
pspresent is a tool that displays PostScript slides in fullscreen, for giving presentations. Navigation is simple, and the display is double-buffered for seamless transitions between slides. The actual rendering is done in the background using Ghostscript.

OPTIONS

-h  Show summary of options.

-o  Do not override window manager. pspresent will attempt to disable decorations and resize itself to the size of the screen, but will otherwise co-operate with your window manager (which may mean that it is not truly fullscreen).

-s  Limit pspresent to only use the given head on a XINERAMA display.

-O Portrait|Landscape|Upside-Down|Seascape
    Override orientation.
