dvicopy
(1)所在系統:linux

路徑:/usr/bin/dvicopy

(2)所使用的 shared library:

libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40021000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40041000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

(3)主要用途說明:

針對DVI檔做modified copy的動作
dvicopy先讀進一個DVI檔(infile) ,把所有虛擬字體的references展開為基本字體 然後再寫成一個新的DVI檔(outfile) ;如此一來 ,即使自己電腦裡的DVI處理工具 不支援虛擬字體 ,只要先讓DVI檔做過dvicopy ,就可以使虛擬字體轉為基本字體 並加以使用了

(4)所支援的參數及其意義 並盡可能舉例:

dvicopy [options](如下) [infile [outfile]]

--help	: 顯示使用說明然後結束
--version	: 印出版本編號然後結束

-magnification=NUMBER : 銷毀編號為NUMBER之已存在infile

-max-pages=NUMBER : 定義page的頁數 預設數值為一百萬

-page-start=PAGE-SPEC : 讓page從PAGE-SPEC(數字)開始, 如:`2' or `5.*.-2'

-[infile [outfile]] : 把infile copy 到 outfile 裡去

實例:
(1)顯示使用說明然後結束
Usage: dvicopy [OPTION]... [INDVI[.dvi] [OUTDVI[.dvi]]]
Expand virtual font references in INDVI to OUTDVI.
Defaults are standard input and standard output, respectively.

-magnification=NUMBER	override existing magnification with NUMBER
-max-pages=NUMBER	process NUMBER pages; default one million
-page-start=PAGE-SPEC	start at PAGE-SPEC, for example `2' or `5.*.-2'
-help	display this help and exit
-version	output version information and exit

Bad DVI file: loc=1!
Use DVItype with output level=4 to diagnose the problem. (That was a fatal error, my friend.)(因不存在故有錯誤訊息)
