+.SH NAME

+psidtopgm - convert PostScript "image" data to a PGM image

+
+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBpsidtopgm\fP reads the "image" data from a PostScript
+file as input and produces a PGM image as output.
+.PP
+This program is obsoleted by \fBpstopnm\fP.
+
+What follows was written before \fBpstopnm \fP existed.
+.PP
+This is a very simple and limited program, and is here only because
+so many people have asked for it. To use it you have to
+\fImanually\fP extract the readhexstring data portion from your
+PostScript file, and then give the width, height, and bits/sample on
+the command line. Before you attempt this, you should \fIat
+least\fP read the description of the "image" operator in
+the PostScript Language Reference Manual.
+.PP
+It would probably not be too hard to write a script that uses this
+filter to read a specific variety of PostScript image, but the
+variation is too great to make a general-purpose reader. Unless, of
+course, you want to write a full-fledged PostScript interpreter...
