text2pdf starts asking for an --in=<filename> in contrast to its Usage. The usage is wrong. Nobody knows how to use the program. $ echo abc > file.txt $ ./text2pdf.pl Usage: txt2pdf <options> <textfilename> $ ./text2pdf.pl file.txt Please specify a file name or glob with --in=<filename> $ ./text2pdf.pl --help MC's Text to PDF converter (very cheesy, but useful nonetheless) Usage: txt2pdf [options] <source file name> Options: --lpp=## specify number of lines per page Note: portrait/landscape, margins and font size all affect the placement of text on a page. You may need to experiment --left=## specify left margin in points. 72 points = 1 inch --top=## specify top margin in points. 36 points = .5 inch -h, --help This help page --size=## Set font size; default is 7.25 --spacing=# Set the spacing between lines; default is 8 -b, -B Set bold type to on; default is not bold -l, -L Set doc to landscape; default is portrait Special thanks to Alfred Reibenschuh for such a cool Perl module! Also, many thanks to the PDF::API2 community for such great ideas.
