+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBsldtoppm\fP reads an AutoCAD\*R slide file and outputs a PPM
+image. If you don't specify \fIslidefile\fP, \fBsldtoppm\fP reads
+input from Standard Input. \fBsldtoppm\fP uses the \fBppmdraw\fP
+library to convert the vector and polygon information in the slide
+file to a raster; see the file \fBppmdraw.h\fP for details on this
+package.
+
+.UN options
+.SH OPTIONS
+.PP
+In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
+(most notably \fB-quiet\fP, see
+.UR index.html#commonoptions
+ Common Options
+.UE
+\&), \fBsldtoppm\fP recognizes the following
+command line options:
+
+
+.TP
+\fB-adjust\fP
+If the display on which the slide file was created had non-square
+pixels, when you process the slide with \fBsldtoppm\fP and don't
+specify \fB-adjust\fP, \fBsldtoppm\fP issues the following warning;
+
+.RS
+Warning - pixels on source screen were non-square.
+.RE
+.sp
+Specifying \fB-adjust\fP will correct the image width to
+compensate. Specifying the \fB-adjust\fP option causes
+\fBsldtoppm\fP to scale the width of the image so that pixels in the
+resulting PPM image are square (and hence circles appear as true
+circles, not ellipses). The scaling is performed in the vector
+domain, before scan converting the objects. The results are,
+therefore, superior in appearance to what you'd obtain were you to
+perform the equivalent scaling with \fBpamscale\fP after the bitmap
+had been created.
+
+.TP
+\fB-dir\fP
+The input is assumed to be an AutoCAD slide library file. A
+directory listing each slide in the library is printed on standard
+error.
+
+.TP
+\fB-height\fP \fIsize\fP
+Scales the image in the vector domain so it is \fIsize\fP pixels
+in height. If you don't specify \fB-width\fP or \fB-xsize\fP,
+\fBsldtoppm\fP adjusts the width to preserve the pixel aspect ratio.
+
+.TP
+\fB-info\fP
+Dump the slide file header on standard error, displaying the original
+screen size and aspect ratio among other information.
+
+.TP
+\fB-lib\fP \fIname\fP
+Extracts the slide with the given \fIname\fP from the slide
+library given as input. \fBsldtoppm\fP converts the specified
+\fIname\fP to upper case.
+
+.TP
+\fB-Lib\fP\fI name\fP
+Extracts the slide with the given \fIname\fP from the slide
+library given as input. \fBsldtoppm\fP uses \fIname\fP in the case
+specified; it does not convert it to upper case.
+
+.TP
+\fB-scale\fP \fIs\fP
+Scales the image by factor \fIs\fP, which may be any floating
+point value greater than zero. \fBsldtoppm\fP does the scaling after
+aspect ratio adjustment, if any. Since it does the scaling in the
+vector domain, before rasterisation, the results look much better than
+running the output of \fBsldtoppm\fP through \fBpamscale\fP.
+
+.TP
+\fB-verbose\fP
+Dumps the slide file header and lists every vector and polygon
+to Standard Error.
+
+.TP
+\fB-width\fP \fIsize\fP
+Scales the image in the vector domain so it is \fIsize\fP pixels
+wide. If you don't specify \fB-height\fP or \fB-ysize\fP,
+\fBsldtoppm\fP adjusts the height to preserve the pixel aspect ratio.
+
+.TP
+\fB-xsize\fP \fIsize\fP
+Scales the image in the vector domain so it is \fIsize\fP pixels
+wide. If you don't specify \fB-height\fP or \fB-ysize\fP,
+\fBsldtoppm\fP adjusts the height to preserve the pixel aspect ratio.
+
+.TP
+\fB-ysize\fP \fIsize\fP
+Scales the image in the vector domain so it is \fIsize\fP pixels
+in height. If you don't specify \fB-width\fP or \fB-xsize\fP,
+\fBsldtoppm\fP adjusts the width to preserve the pixel aspect ratio.
+
+
+
+.UN limitations
+.SH LIMITATIONS
+.PP
+\fBsldtoppm\fP can convert only Level 2 slides. Level 1 format
+has been obsolete since the advent of AutoCAD Release 9 in 1987, and
+was not portable across machine architectures.
+.PP
+Slide library items with names containing 8 bit (such as ISO) or 16
+bit (Kanji, for example) characters may not be found when chosen with
+the \fB-lib\fP option unless \fBsldtoppm\fP was built with character
+set conversion functions appropriate to the locale. You can always
+retrieve slides from libraries regardless of the character set by
+using the \fB-Lib\fP option and specifying the precise name of
+library member. Use the \fB-dir\fP option to list the slides in a
+library if you're unsure of the exact name.
