Man1 - pnmtorast.1

pnmtorast - convert a PPM into a Sun rasterfile

pnmtorast [*-standard*|*-rle*] [/pnmfile/]

This program is part of *Netpbm*(1)

*pnmtorast*reads a PPM image as input and produces a Sun rasterfile as output.

Color values in Sun rasterfiles are eight bits wide, so pnmtorast will automatically scale colors to have a maxval of 255. An extra pamdepth step is not necessary.

The -standard option forces the result to be in RT_STANDARD form; the -rle option, RT_BYTE_ENCODED, which is smaller but, well, less standard. The default is -rle.

All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

*rasttopnm*(1) , *pnm*(5)
