If the input file +is in color, the output will be too, otherwise it will be grayscale. +The angle is in degrees (floating point), and measures this: + +.nf + +-------+ +-------+ + | | |\e \e + | OLD | | \e NEW \e + | | |an\e \e + +-------+ |gle+-------+ + +.fi + +If the angle is negative, it shears the other way: +.nf + +-------+ |-an+-------+ + | | |gl/ / + | OLD | |e/ NEW / + | | |/ / + +-------+ +-------+ + +.fi + +The angle should not get too close to 90 or -90, or the resulting image will +be unreasonably wide. In fact, if it gets too close, the width will be so +large that \fBpnmshear\fP cannot do computations in the word sizes it uses, +and the program detects this and fails. +.PP +\fBpnmshear\fP does the shearing by looping over the source pixels +and distributing fractions to each of the destination pixels. This +has an "anti-aliasing" effect - it avoids jagged edges and +similar artifacts. However, it also means that the original colors in +the image are modified and there are typically more of them than you +started with. If you need to keep precisely the same set of colors, +see the \fB-noantialias\fP option. If the expanded palette is a +problem, you can run the result through \fBpnmquant\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 +\&), \fBpnmshear\fP recognizes the following +command line options: + + +.TP +\fB-background=\fP\fIcolor\fP +This determines the color of the background on which the sheared image +sits. +.sp +Specify the color (\fIcolor\fP) as described for the +.UR libnetpbm_image.html#colorname +argument of the \fBpnm_parsecolor()\fP library routine +.UE +\&. +.sp +By default, if you don't specify this option, \fBpnmshear\fP selects +what appears to it to be the background color of the original image. It +determines this color rather simplistically, by taking an average of the colors +of the two top corners of the image. +.sp +This option was new in Netpbm 10.37 (December 2006). Before that, +\fBpnmshear\fP always behaved as is the default now. + +.TP +\fB-noantialias\fP +This option forces \fBpnmshear\fP to simply move pixels around instead +of synthesizing output pixels from multiple input pixels. The latter could +cause the output to contain colors that are not in the input, which may not +be desirable. It also probably makes the output contain a large number of +colors. If you need a small number of colors, but it doesn't matter if they +are the exact ones from the input, consider using \fBpnmquant\fP on the +output instead of using \fB-noantialias\fP. +.sp +Note that to ensure the output does not contain colors that are not +in the input, you also must consider the background color.
