+.SH NAME
+
+ppmmix - blend together two PPM images
+
+.UN synopsis
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+ppmmix \fIfadefactor\fP \fIppmfile1\fP \fIppmfile2\fP
+
+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBppmmix\fP reads two PPM images as input and mixes them together
+using the specified fade factor. The fade factor may be in the range
+from 0.0 (only ppmfile1's image data) to 1.0 (only ppmfile2's image
+data). Anything in between specifies a smooth blend between the two
+images.
+.PP
+The two images must have the same dimensions and the same maxval. Before
+Netpbm 10.54 (March 2011), they must also have the same type (PBM/PGM/PPM).
+.PP
+The fade factor is applied to brightness, not light intensity. That means
+for example that if you have a series of images you generated
+using \fBppmmix\fP of a black and a white image with a linearly increasing
+fade factor, you will see an image getting linearly brighter, but the light
+intensity will increase faster at the end. That is because it requires more
+intensity change at the bright end of the scale than at the dark end for the
+human eye to perceive the same brightness change. This also means that
+if the original images aren't all one color, the mixed image is distorted,
+since the intensity relationship between pixels is different from the
+original image.
+.PP
+\fBpamcomp\fP is a more general alternative. It allows you to mix
+images of different size and to have the fade factor vary throughout
+the image (through the use of a transparency mask). It does not have the
+same-maxval and same-type restrictions. It mixes light intensity, not
+brightness.
