NAME
thumbpdf - generate thumbnail images for a PDF file
created with pdftex
SYNOPSIS
thumbpdf [ OPTION... ] PDF_FILE
DESCRIPTION
thumbpdf is used to create thumbnail images of individual pages
within a PDF (Portable Document Format) document.
USAGE
First run pdftex(1) on your document to create a PDF file.
Then run thumbpdf to generate the thumbnails, a PDF file
containing the thumbnails, and a pdfTeX file to include the thumbnails
in the PDF file. Finally, run pdftex(1) on your file again to
create the final PDF file.
thumbpdf calls gs(1) to generate PNG images of the pages
within PDF_FILE, and pdftex(1) to create a PDF file
containing the thumbnail images.
