<p>
The show command will print the specified objects and streams to
stdout. Streams are decoded and non-printable characters are
represented with a period by default.
<pre>
mutool show [options] file.pdf ( xref | outline | grep | <i>&lt;path&gt;</i> ) *
</pre>
<p>
Options:
<dl>
<dt> -p password
<dd> Use the specified password if the file is encrypted.
<dt> -o file
<dd> Write output to file instead of stdout.
<dt> -e
<dd> Print streams in their original encoded (or compressed) form.
<dt> -b
<dd> Print streams as binary data, and omit the object.
<dt> -g
<dd> Print objects in a one-line form suitable for grep, and omit stream data.
</dl>
<p>
Specify what to show by using one of the following keywords, or specify a path
to an object:
<dl>
<dt> xref
<dd> Print the cross reference table.
<dt> outline
<dd> Print the outline (table of contents).
<dt> pages
<dd> List the object numbers for every page.
<dt> grep
<dd> Print all the objects in the file in a compact one-line format
suitable for piping to grep.
</dl>
<p>
A path starts with either an object number, a property in the trailer
dictionary, or the keyword "trailer" or "pages". Separate elements with
a period '.' or slash '/'.
Select a page object by using pages/<i>N</i> where N is the page number.
The first page is number 1.
You can also use '*' as an element to iterate over all array indices
or dictionary properties in an object.
<dl>
<dt> Find the number of pages in a document:
<dd> <tt>mutool show $FILE trailer/Pages/Count</tt>
<dt> Print the raw content stream of the first page:
<dd> <tt>mutool show -b $FILE pages/1/Contents</tt>
<dt> Show all JPEG compressed stream objects:
<dd> <tt>mutool show $FILE grep | grep '/Filter/DCTDecode'</tt>
</dl>
