You can separate an option name from its value +with white space instead of an equals sign. + +.UN description +.SH DESCRIPTION +.PP +This program is part of +.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c +\&. +.PP +\fBpamdice\fP reads a PAM, PBM, PGM, or PPM image as input and +splits it horizontally and/or vertically into equal size pieces and +writes them into separate files as the same kind of image. You can +optionally make the pieces overlap. +.PP +See the \fB-outstem\fP option for information on naming of the +output files. +.PP +The \fB-width\fP and \fB-height\fP options determine the size of +the output pieces. +.PP +\fBpamundice\fP can rejoin the images. For finer control, you can +also use \fBpamcat\fP. +.PP +One use for this is to make pieces that take less computer resources +than the whole image to process. For example, you might have an image +so large that an image editor can't read it all into memory or processes +it very slowly. With \fBpamdice\fP, you can split it into smaller pieces, +edit one at a time, and then reassemble them. +.PP +Another use for this is to print a large image in small printer-sized +pieces that you can glue together. \fBppmglobe\fP does a similar thing; +it lets you glue the pieces together into a sphere. +.PP +If you want to cut pieces from an image individually, not in a regular +grid, use \fBpamcut\fP. + + +.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 +\&), \fBpamdice\fP recognizes the following +command line options: + + +.TP +\fB-outstem=\fPfilenamestem +This option determines the names of the output files.

The rightmost +pieces are smaller than this if the input image is not a multiple of +\fIwidth\fP pixels wide. + +.TP +\fB-height=\fP\fIheight\fP +gives the height in pixels of the output images. The bottom +pieces are smaller than this if the input image is not a multiple of +\fIheight\fP pixels high. + +.TP +\fB-hoverlap=\fP\fIhoverlap\fP +gives the horizontal overlap in pixels between output images. +Each image in a row will overlap the previous one by \fIhoverlap\fP +pixels. By default, there is no overlap. +.sp +This option was new in Netpbm 10.23 (July 2004). + +.TP +\fB-voverlap=\fP\fIvoverlap\fP +gives the vertical overlap in pixels between output images. +Each row of images will overlap the previous row by \fIvoverlap\fP +pixels.
