SYNOPSIS

       slic3r [ OPTIONS ] [ file.stl ] [ file2.stl ] ...

DESCRIPTION

       Slic3r  is  a  STL-to-GCODE  translator  for  RepRap  3D  printers  written  by Alessandro
       Ranellucci <aar@cpan.org> - http://slic3r.org/

OPTIONS

       Common options:

              --help Output usage screen and exit

              --version
                     Output the version of Slic3r and exit

              --save <file>
                     Save configuration to the specified file

              --load <file>
                     Load configuration from the specified file. It can be used more than once to
                     load options from multiple files.

              -o, --output <file>
                     File  to  output  gcode to (by default, the file will be saved into the same
                     directory as the input file using the --output-filename-format  to  generate
                     the  filename.) If a directory is specified for this option, the output will
                     be saved under that  directory,  and  the  filename  will  be  generated  by
                     --output-filename-format.

       Non-slicing actions (no G-code will be generated):

              --repair
                     Repair given STL files and save them as <name>_fixed.obj

              --cut <z>
                     Cut   given   input   files  at  given  Z  (relative)  and  export  them  as
                     <name>_upper.stl and <name>_lower.stl

              --split
                     Split the shells contained in given STL file into several STL files

              --info Output information about the supplied file(s) and exit

              -j, --threads <num> Number of threads to use (1+, default: 2)

       GUI options:

              --no-plater

                     Automatically export current configuration to the specified file

       Output options:

              --output-filename-format
                     Output file name format; all config options enclosed  in  brackets  will  be
                     replaced   by   their   values,   as   well   as  [input_filename_base]  and

              --post-process
                     Generated G-code will be processed with the supplied script; call this  more
                     than once to process through multiple scripts.

              --export-svg
                     Export a SVG file containing slices instead of G-code.

              -m, --merge
                     If  multiple  files  are supplied, they will be composed into a single print

              --extruder-offset
                     Offset of each extruder, if firmware doesn't handle the displacement (can be
                     specified multiple times, default: 0x0)
