Command options

All command options are optional. LaTeXdraw knows the following command options:

• -q or -l: the orientation of the drawing area is landscape (this does not influence the output files!)
• -t: If LaTeXdraw was generated with the digitizer option (see makefile) then the digitizer tablet is enabled
• The default header line used for the LaTeX-file is:
  ''\documentstyle[latexdraw]{article}''
• -2e sets the header line to:
  ''\documentclass{article}\input{latexdraw.sty}''
• -d followed by a string x sets the header line to x.
  Example:
  latexdraw -l -d '\[latexdraw]{report}\pagestyle{empty}'

  sets orientation to landscape, uses the documentstyle report, and the pagestyle is empty.

• -f followed by a font name defines the font used for the menue, e.g. -f 8x13bold.
• The size of the drawing area can be adjusted by the user at any time by changing the size of the window. The command option -s followed by pixelwidthxpixelheight defines the initial size of the drawing area.
• -io myfile1 myfile2
  In this case LaTeXdraw is not started for drawing but only for file generation. The input file myfile1 is a LaTeXdraw --file. It is used to generate the output file myfile2, which is a LaTeX--file.
