xkbprint − print an XKB keyboard description
xkbprint [option ...] source [output_file]
The xkbprint command generates a printable or encapsulated PostScript description of the XKB keyboard description specifed by source. source can be an X display specification or any compiled keymap (.xkm) file that includes a geometry description If output_file is specified, xkbprint writes to it. If no output file is specified, xkbprint creates a file of the name name as source, replacing the extension of the source file with .ps or .eps depending on the requested format. If source is a non−local X display (e.g., :0), xkbprint appends the appropriate prefix to the display specification, replacing the colon with a dash. For a local display, xkbprint uses server−n, where n is the server number of the display.
