RasterView - Apple/CUPS/PWG Raster File Viewer

==============================================

![Version](https://img.shields.io/github/v/release/michaelrsweet/rasterview?include_prereleases)

![Apache 2.0](https://img.shields.io/github/license/michaelrsweet/rasterview)

RasterView is an Apple, CUPS, and PWG raster file viewing application. It

basically allows you to look at the raster data produced by any of the standard

CUPS RIP filters (cgpdftoraster, imagetoraster, pdftoraster, and pstoraster) and

is normally used to either test those filters or look at the data that is being

sent to your raster printer driver.

RasterView is licensed under the Apache License Version 2.0.

Requirements

------------

If you plan on (re)compiling it, you'll need FLTK () 1.1.x

or later and a C++ compiler.

How to Compile

--------------

Run the following commands:

    ./configure

    make

How to Use

----------

The program is called "rasterview" on UNIX/Linux, "RasterView.app" on macOS, and

"RasterView.exe" on Windows.  Run the program and then open a raster file, or

pass the filename on the command-line.  You can view multiple files

simultaneously.

The "test" subdirectory includes a script for generating raster data using the

standard RIP filters.  Run the following command for help:

    test/maketestfiles.sh help
