You +may use either white space or equals signs between an option name and +its value. + + +.UN description +.SH DESCRIPTION +.PP +This program is part of +.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c +\&. +.PP +\fBpbmtomacp\fP reads a PBM image as input and produces a MacPaint +file as output. +.PP +If you do not specify \fIpbmfile\fP, \fBpbmtomacp\fP uses Standard Input. +.PP + The generated file is only the data fork of a picture. You will +need a program such as \fBmcvert\fP to generate a Macbinary or a +BinHex file that contains the necessary information to identify the +file as a PNTG file to MacOS. + + +.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 +\&), \fBpbmtomacp\fP recognizes the following +command line options: + + + +.TP +\fB-norle\fP +This option tells \fBpbmtomacp\fP not to use any run length encoding +compression in the MacPaint image it produces. This output, while not +normal, conforms to MacPaint specifications and can be read by any +MacPaint decoder without any special settings. +.sp +The only value of this option is testing and experimentation. The option +causes every output image to contain exactly 53072 bytes, which is the +theoretical maximum size for a MacPaint image. +.sp +Without \fB-norle\fP, MacPaint compresses the image as much as possible +and the output size depends on the nature of the input. + +.TP +\fB-left\fP +\fB-right\fP +\fB-top\fP +\fB-bottom\fP +These options let you define a rectangle within the image to convert. The +default is the whole file. If the specified image is too large for a +MacPaint-file, \fBpbmtomacp\fP cuts the image to fit, starting at the +specified top left corner. +.sp +These options exist for backward compatibility with an unfortunate original +design. They do the same thing that you can do in a more Netpbm-like way and +more flexibly by processing the input through \fBpamcut\fP. + + + +.UN seealso +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR "macptopbm" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "ppmtopict" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "pamcut" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "pbm" (1)\c +\&, +\fBmcvert\fP documentation + +.UN history +.SH HISTORY +.PP +\fBpbmtomacp\fP was added to Netpbm in 1988, written by Douwe van der +Schaaf (...!mcvax!uvapsy!vdschaaf). +.PP +In 2015, Akira Urushibata replaced the program with the current +version, using different logic and none of the original code. The new +version used the "packed PBM" facilities of the Netpbm library and the +shhopt method of command line parsing. +.SH DOCUMENT SOURCE +This manual page was generated by the Netpbm tool 'makeman' from HTML +source.
