NAME
dvicopy, odvicopy - produce modified copy of DVI file
SYNOPSIS
dvicopy [options] [infile[.dvi] [outfile[.dvi]]]
DESCRIPTION
dvicopy reads a DVI file, expands any references to virtual fonts to base fonts, and writes the resulting DVI file. Thus you can use virtual fonts even if your DVI processor does not support them, by passing the documents through dvicopy first.
The odvitype program does the same job for Omega/Aleph's output, modified to support their .ofm font format.

-

- -max-pages=NUMBER
-
Process NUMBER pages; default one million.
- -page-start=PAGE-SPEC
-
Start at PAGE-SPEC, for example `2' or `5.*.-2'.
The standard -help and -version options are also supported.
