### SYNPOSIS

> `fp2preview [options] [inputfile]`

### DESCRIPTION

> fp2preview invokes pcb-rnd to generate a preview image of a library footprint. Its main use is to have a automated, light-weight footprint preview generator using a static linked pcb-rnd (e.g. on web servers).

### OPTIONS

> --photo | draw the footprint in "photo realistic mode"
> -p | same as --photo
> --grid unit | set grid unit e.g. to mm or mil
> -g unit | same as --grid
> --mm | use an mm grid instead of a mil grid; shorthand for -g mm
> --annotation types | turn on annotation types; types is a string that may consist "pins" for pin/pad numbers, "dimname" and "dimvalue" for dimension names and values and "background" for drawing a background under annotation text
