DESCRIPTION
This script provides an API for the pagelayout LaTeX class.
pagelayoutapi getwidth
Returns the width in pixels for the given image file.
pagelayoutapi getheight
Returns the height in pixels for the given image file.
pagelayoutapi optimize
Creates a cropped, rezised, sharpend and compressed image and stores it in the cache directory.
pagelayoutapi makeshadow
Creates a shadow image and stores it in the cache directory.
pagelayoutapi start
The import parameter triggers the image import (see pagelayout-manual.pdf chapter "Image
Optimization"). Running the command with the parameter turbo, where the jobname is the filename of
the document, processes the document in a special batch mode, that creates a batch list and calls
the command pagelayoutapi batchoptimize.
pagelayoutapi batchoptimize
Optimizes multiple images in parallel.
OPTIONS
--help Prints a help message.
--version
Prints version information.
PARAMETERS
FILE filename with extension (eg. IMG1234.JPEG)
FILENAME
filename without extension (eg. IMG1234)
EXTENSION
optimized file extension (.jpg|.png)
DENSITY
density in ppi (eg. 72)
DOWNSAMPLETHRESHOLD
downsample threshold (integer >= 100)
UNSHARP
unsharp filter (eg. 2x1)
QUALITY
quality (integer > 0, <= 100)
STANDARDDEVIATION
standard deviation (decimal > 0.0)
OPACITY
opacity (decimal >= 0.0, <= 1.0)
COLOR color string (eg. pink)
GRAPHICSPATH
list of directories (eg. {images/}{tmp/})
JOBNAME
LaTeX filename without extension (eg. my-document)
BATCHLIST
a flat list of batch items where each batch item is a flat list of the 15 parameters required by
the command `pagelayoutapi optimize`
All other parameters are length dimensions. The command pagelayoutapi optimize expects integer values in
the LaTeX unit sp (eg. 65536). The command pagelayoutapi makeshadow expects decimal values in a SVG
compatible unit (eg. 420.0pt).
ENVIRONMENT
pagelayoutapi requires ImageMagick 7.0 or later and Inkscape 1.0 or later.
PAGELAYOUT_IMPORT_DIRECTORY
Defines a system wide import directory.
