The program maximizes contrast +between the gray levels output. +.PP +A ppm input of n colors is read, and a pgm of n gray levels is +written. The gray levels take on the values 0..n-1, while maxval +takes on n-1. +.PP +The mapping from color to stepped grayscale can be performed in +order of input pixel intensity, or input pixel frequency (number of +repetitions). +.PP +This program is helpful only for images with a very small number of +colors. + +.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 +\&), \fBppmdist\fP recognizes the following +command line options: + + +.TP +\fB-frequency\fP +Sort input colors by the number of times a color appears in the +input, before mapping to evenly distributed graylevels of output. + +.TP +\fB-intensity\fP +Sort input colors by their grayscale intensity, before mapping to +evenly distributed graylevels of output.
