how to pipe output of ps2pdf to zathura

Question

I want to view manpages as pdf. I tried the following:

man -t awk | ps2pdf - - | zathura (combination of this and the last example in the manpage of ps2pdf)

However, zathura just shows me a black window, as if I did not open any file.

How can I fix this?

Answer 1

Add - as a command line argument to zathura:

man -t awk | ps2pdf - - | zathura -

as the man page says:

zathura displays the given files. If a single hyphen-minus (-) is given
as file name, the content will be read from the standard input.
