RE: [uug] xpdf reverseVideo

Just thought I'd let anyone know that might be puzzling over my posted question.  I figured it out this morning after sleeping on it.  Problem was, man page didn't give enough info for this setting to be intuitive.

Subject: [uug] xpdf reverseVideo

Hi everyone.  I'm trying to configure xpdf with some special settings.  Tha man page for xpdf says this:

 

-rv    Set reverse video mode.  This reverses  the  colors
      of  everything  except  images. It may not always
      produce great results for PDF files which do  weird
      things  with  color.   This  also  causes the paper
      color  to   default   to   black.    [X resource:
      xpdf.reverseVideo]
      

Problem I'm having is that xpdf.reverseVideo when put in my .Xresources file is being ignored.  Other settings are being read, such as:

xpdf*foreground:    white

xpdf*background:    black

(These set the colors for the user interface, and not the document).

These work just fine.

Does anyone know how to make the xpdf.reverseVideo option to work?  to easily see the color scheme I need, do the following from a shell prompt:

"xpdf -rv filename.pdf"      on some pdf file you may have kicking around.

 

Thank you

Thane
