I am working on an article with colorful drawings, but because it will be printed on black-and-white printers, I want to make sure it looks good without colors.

I have Ubuntu and currently use Evince to view the paper (in Postscript or PDF format). Is there a way to tell Evince to show me the paper as it would look like when printed on a black-and-white printer?

Alternatively, is there a different PS/PDF viewer that can do this?

  • Another place to look would be in the Accessibility settings (although I am not sufficiently familiar with Ubuntu to confirm that it would work).

GIMP can import PDFs and desaturate them to grayscale. See the GIMP docs. A bit clunky, but it would work.
