NAME
     pdf2ps - Ghostscript PDF to PostScript translator

SYNOPSIS
     pdf2ps [ options ] input.pdf [output.ps]

DESCRIPTION
     pdf2ps  uses  gs(1)  to  convert the Adobe Portable Document
     Format (PDF) file "input.pdf"  to  PostScript(tm)  in  "out-
     put.ps".   Normally  the output is allowed to use PostScript
     Level 2 (but not PostScript LanguageLevel 3) constructs; the
     -dLanguageLevel=1  option  restricts  the output to Level 1,
     while -dLanguageLevel=3 allows using LanguageLevel 3 in  the
     output.

FILES
     Run  "gs  -h" to find the location of Ghostscript documenta-
     tion on your system, from which you can get more details.
