Man1 - pbmtomda.1

pbmtomda - convert a PBM image to a Microdesign .mda

pbmtomda

[*-d*] [*-i*] [*–*]

[/pbmfile/]

This program is part of *Netpbm*(1)

pbmtomda reads a PBM image as input and produces a MicroDesign 2 area file (.MDA) as output.

If you do not specify pbmfile, pbmtomda uses Standard Input.

-d

Halve the height of the output file, to compensate for the aspect ratio used in MicroDesign files.

-i

Invert the colors used.

--

End of options (use this if the filename starts with ’-’)

There’s no way to produce files in MicroDesign 3 format. MD3 itself and *mdatopbm*(1) can read files in either format.

*mdatopbm*(1) , *pbm*(5)
