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.

       -l     Loop mode; go to start of document when at end, and vice versa.

       -t[delay]
              Automatic slideshow mode. The delay is optional, the default value is 20 seconds.

       -Tfile Automatic  slideshow  mode.  The  file  contains  one  integer  value   per   line,
              corresponding to the delay between the current slide and the next one. You must put
              a value for each page of your document (count overlays, too). A  value  of  0  will
              disable the timer for the current slide.

COMMANDS

       The  following keys can be used from within pspresent to navigate the slides.  If Shift is
       depressed, then only the last page of each series of overlays is shown (an overlay set  is
       identified as a series of pages with the same logical page number).
