.SH NAME
ximpv \- Imprint (Impress) Previewer for the X Window System
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B ximpv
[=\fIgeometry\fP] [-p#] [-rv] [-fg \fIcolor\fP] [-bg \fIcolor\fP] [-bd \fIcolor\fP] [-ms \fIcolor\fP] [\fIhost\fP:\fIdisplay\fP] file
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Ximpv
is a program which runs under the X window system. It
is used to preview images which is destined for an Imagen laser
printer.
.PP
The 
.I -p# 
option, if used, will set the number of pages you can back up to #. Default
is five pages. Zero (or no number) runs faster as the pages do not have to be 
transferred to disk.
.PP
If the 
.I file 
given to ximpv is correct a square will appear on the
screen indicating text is about to appear.
If no 
.I file 
is given stdin must be from a pipe or an error message is printed
and the program aborted.
.PP
The pages of the file are displayed in the order.
Only about 2/3 of a page can be displayed at once (this is because
of aspect ratio differences).
