- Using the -b option will force the program to use the current line breaks (in the case of this file, end of each sentence).
- You can use the -f option to tell the program what page size, font, justification, etc. you want to use.
- The first two parameters of the -f option are the page size.
- For 8 1/2 by 11, use -f 8.5,11.
- The next two options are font type and size.
- See the documentation for the full list of fonts that can be used (1 through 14).
- To use 8.5 by 11 with a Helvetica font at a point size of 12, use: -f 8.5,11,2,12.
- The next option is justification.
- You can use L for left, R for right, C for center or J for justify.
- Next are left margin, top margin, right edge, left edge and line spacing.
- Finally, the number of columns, spacing between columns and compression.
- To convert this file using an 11 point Times Roman font, use text2pdf.exe sample.txt sample.pdf -f 8.5,11,3,11.
- To convert this file using 2 columns along with text justified across the columns, use text2pdf.exe sample.txt sample.pdf -f 8.5,11,3,11,J,,1,,5,,2.
