+pamvalidate - validate Netpbm image format

+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+\fBpamvalidate\fP
+
+
+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBpamvalidate\fP copies a Netpbm image from Standard Input to Standard
+Output, except that if there are certain violations of the image format in the
+input, \fBpamvalidate\fP fails \fIwithout producing any output\fP.
+.PP
+This is most useful in a pipeline, before a stage you don't want to start
+working on Netpbm input until it knows it can get all the way through it.  For
+example, assume you are converting PPM images to PNG and you don't want to
+produce a partial PNG file under any circumstance.  If you just
+use \fBpnmtopng\fP, and the PPM input is truncated halfway through the
+raster, \fBpnmtopng\fP fails, but also produces about half of a PNG file.
+To prevent that, pass your PPM input through \fBpamvalidate\fP on its way
+to \fBpnmtopng\fP.  Then, \fBpamvalidate\fP will fail, and consequently
+the pipeline will fail, before \fBpnmtopng\fP has seen any input and 
+therefore before \fBpnmtopng\fP has produced any output.
+.PP
+These are the kinds of format violations \fBpamvalidate\fP detects:
+
+
+.IP \(bu
+A purported sample value exceeds the declared maxval.
+.IP \(bu
+The stream ends prematurely.
+
+.PP
+This program works on multi-image streams, producing a corresponding output
+stream.
+.PP
+See \fBpamfix\fP for a way to salvage an invalid Netpbm image stream.
