+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBpgmabel\fP reads as input a PGM image, which it assumes to be an
+image of a rotational symmetric transparent object. The image must have
+a vertical symmetry axis. \fBpgmabel\fP produces as output an image of
+a cross-section of the image.
+
+\fBpgmabel\fP does the calculation by performing the Abel Integration
+for Deconvolution of an axial-symmetrical image by solving the system
+of linear equations.
+
+After integration, \fBpgmabel\fP weights all gray-values of one side
+by the surface area of the calculated ring in square pixels divided by
+4*\fIfactor\fP multiplied by the size of one pixel (\fIpixsize\fP).
+With the \fB-verbose\fP option, \fBpgmabel\fP prints the weighting
+factors.
+.PP
+Where the calculation generates a negative result, the output is black.
+.PP
+The computation is unstable against periodic structures with size 2 in
+the vertical direction.

+In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
+(most notably \fB-quiet\fP, see

+.TP
+\fB-help\fP
+Prints a help message.
+
+.TP
+\fB-axis\fP \fIaxis\fP
+Position of the axis of symmetry in the image in pixels from the left
+edge of the image. Default is the center of the image.
+
+.TP
+\fB-factor\fP \fIfactor\fP
+User defined factor for enhancement of the output. Use a \fIfactor\fP
+less than 1 for decreasing gary values. Default is 1.0.
+
+.TP
+\fB-pixsize\fP \fIpixsize\fP
+The size of a pixel for getting scale invariant. Default is 0.1.
+
+.TP
+\fB-left\fP
+Calculate only the left side of the image. You cannot specify both
+\fBleft\fP and \fBright\fP.
+
+.TP
+\fB-right\fP
+Analogous to \fB-left\fP.
+
+.TP
+\fB-verbose\fP
+print information about the calculation.
+
+
+
