If you have input images in multiple files, you can simply +combine them with \fBcat\fP and pass the result to \fBpamtowinicon\fP. + + +.UN options +.SH OPTIONS + +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 +\&), \fBpamtowinicon\fP recognizes the following command +line options: + + +.TP +\fB-pngthreshold=\fP\fIthreshold\fP +\fBpamtowinicon\fP encodes images with resolutions above or equal \fIthreshold\fP by \fIthreshold\fP as PNG by running +.BR "\fBpnmtopng\fP" (1)\c +\&.

It is required for all BMP encoded images. At the +first sight, the AND mask is a 1-bit transparency channel, but it is also +used for e.g. shading the icon while dragging. See +.BR "Windows Icons" (1)\c +\& for details. +.PP +If there is no explicit AND mask, but transparency data in the +input image, \fBpamtowinicon\fP sets the AND mask to opaque where the +sample in the transparency channel is below maxval, and to transparent +elsewhere. +.PP +If no transparency data is present in the input image, +\fBpamtowinicon\fP assumes the whole image to be fully opaque. + + +.UN bmpoutput +.SS BMP Output + +When BMP encoding an image, \fBpamtowinicon\fP tries to use the most +compact \fBBI_RGB\fP format allowed for icon images with a color +depth of eight bits per channel. +.PP +\fBpamtowinicon\fP generates neither 16-bit \fBBI_RGB\fP nor +\fBBI_BITFIELDS\fP BMP encoded images, even if the maxval of the input +PAM is not 255. + + +.UN seealso +.SH SEE ALSO + + +.IP \(bu + +.BR "\fBwinicontopam\fP" (1)\c +\& +.IP \(bu + +.BR "\fBppmtowinicon\fP" (1)\c +\& +.IP \(bu + +.BR "pam" (5)\c +\& +.IP \(bu + +.BR "Windows Icons" (1)\c +\& + +.PP +For information on the PNG format, see +.UR http://schaik.com/png +http://schaik.com/png +.UE +\&. + + +.UN history +.SH HISTORY +.PP +\fBpamtowinicon\fP was new in Netpbm 10.63 (June 2013).
