+.SH NAME
+pamtosrf - convert a sequence of Netpbm images to a SRF image file

+
+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBpamtosrf\fP reads a Netpbm image stream as input and produces a
+an SRF image file as output. I don't know exactly what SRF is, but on popular
+use of it is in Garmin vehicle information files, which tell a GPS receiver
+how to depict a vehicle on its display.
+.PP
+An SRF file can contain multiple images; each image in a multi-image
+Netpbm input stream becomes one image in the SRF.
+.PP
+\fBpamtosrf\fP does not care how many images there are or what their
+dimensions or content are. However, a Garmin vehicle information file has
+specific requirements, so if you don't make your Netpbm input conform, neither
+will your SRF output. For such a file, you should have two image: the first
+for 3D oblique views of the vehicle and the second for overhead views. Each
+image is a horizontal concatenation of 36 square images, each rotated 10
+degrees from the previous, thereby covering the full 360 degree circle.
+You could create this concatenation with \fBpnmcat -lr\fP and you could
+create the invidual views with \fBpnmrotate\fP.
+.PP
+One way to use \fBpamtosrf\fP is to get an SRF file, convert it to PAM
+with \fBsrftopam\fP, manipulate it, then convert it back with
+\fBpamtosrf\fP.
+.PP
+\fInetpbmfile\fP is the input stream, which defaults to Standard Input.
+Output is always on Standard Output.
