  • -scalex <int> : X axis scale factors, default is 100
    • 100 : do not scale PDF page
    • 0 : scale the width of PDF page to fit the printer's paper size
    • -1 : keep the minimum constant scaling in both paper width and height
  • -scaley <int> : Y axis scale factors, default is 100
    • 100 : do not scale PDF page
    • 0 : scale the height of PDF page to fit the printer's paper size

Some examples are as follows:

  • C:\pdf2vec_cmd\pdf2vec.exe –scale 40 E:\in.pdf D:\out.hpgl
