The +output has the same major PNM format (PBM, PGM, or PPM) and maxval as +the input. This may seem an unnecessary duplication of \fBcat\fP, +but it lets you convert between the plain (ASCII) and raw (binary) +subformats of PNM. Use the \fB-plain\fP Netpbm common option to +ensure the output is plain PNM, and don't use \fB-plain\fP to ensure +the output is raw PNM. See +.UR index.html#commonoptions + Common Options +.UE +\&. +.PP +You don't normally need to convert between the PNM subformats, because +any program that uses the Netpbm library to read a PNM image will read +all of them directly. But there are a lot of programs that don't use +the Netpbm library and understand only the raw format. Plain format +is nice because it is human readable; people often use it to debug +programs that process PNM images. +.PP +\fBpnmtopnm\fP is really just another name for the program +\fBpamtopnm\fP. The latter does the job because like any Netpbm +program that takes PAM input via the Netpbm programming library +facilities, it also takes PNM input. + +.UN history +.SH HISTORY +.PP +\fBpnmtopnm\fP was new in Netpbm 10.23 (July 2004). It obsoleted +\fBpnmtoplainpnm\fP, which specifically did the conversion to plain +PNM. There was no program to explicitly convert to raw PNM, but many +Netpbm programs can be made, with the right options, to be idempotent +(i.e. to do the same thing as \fBpnmtopnm\fP). +.PP +Then David Jones realized that the existing \fBpamtopnm\fP already +did everything that \fBpnmtopnm\fP did and more, so +in Netpbm 10.27 (March 2005), \fBpnmtopnm\fP became simply an alternate +name for \fBpamtopnm\fP. + +.UN lbAE +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR "ppmtoppm" (1)\c +\& +.BR "pgmtopgm" (1)\c +\& +.BR "pamtopnm" (1)\c +\& +.BR "pnm" (5)\c +\& +.SH DOCUMENT SOURCE +This manual page was generated by the Netpbm tool 'makeman' from HTML +source.
