NAME


pkpgcounter - count number of pages required to print various types of documents

DESCRIPTION


pkpgcounter v3.50 (c) 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 Jerome Alet

pkpgcounter is a generic Page Description Language parser.

pkpgcounter parses any number of input files and/or its standard input and outputs the
number of pages needed to print these documents.

pkpgcounter can also compute the percent of ink coverage in different colorspaces for
several file formats.

pkpgcounter currently recognizes the following document formats :

* PostScript (both DSC compliant and binary) * PDF * PCLXL (aka PCL6) * PCL3/4/5 *
DVI * OpenDocument (ISO/IEC DIS 26300) * Microsoft Word (c) (tm) (r) (etc...) *
Plain text * TIFF * Several other image formats * ESC/P2 * Zenographics ZjStream *
Samsung QPDL (aka SPL2) * Samsung SPL1 * ESC/PageS03 * Brother HBP *
Hewlett-Packard LIDIL (hpijs) * Structured Fax * Canon BJ/BJC * ASCII PNM (Netpbm)

The ten latter ones, as well as some TIFF documents, are currently only supported in page
counting mode.

command line usage :

pkpgcounter [options] [files]

options :

-v | --version
Prints pkpgcounter's version number then exits.

-h | --help
Prints this message then exits.

-d | --debug
Activate debug mode.

-cCOLORSPACE, --colorspace=COLORSPACE
Activate the computation of ink usage, and defines the colorspace to use. Supported
values are 'BW' (Black), 'RGB', 'CMYK', 'CMY', and 'GC' (Grayscale vs Color). 'GC'
is useful if you only need to differentiate grayscale pages from coloured pages but
don't care about ink usage per se.

-rRESOLUTION, --resolution=RESOLUTION
The resolution in DPI to use when checking ink usage. Lower resolution is faster
but less accurate. Default is 72 dpi.

examples :

$ pkpgcounter file1.ps file2.escp2 file3.pclxl <file4.pcl345

Will launch pkpgcounter and will output the total number of pages needed to print
all the documents specified.

$ pkpgcounter --colorspace bw --resolution 150 file1.ps

Will output the percent of black ink needed on each page of the file1.ps file
rendered at 150 dpi.
