A PGM +input results in a PBM output. A PPM input results in a PPM output +with three overlaid histograms: a red one for the red input, a green +one for the green input, and a blue one for the blue input. +.PP +For example, from the following image produces the following histogram: +.PP +.B image +.IMG -C testimg.png +.B histogram from image +.IMG -C testimg_histbar.png +.PP +If the input is PBM, \fBpnmhistmap\fP produces an error message +and no output image. + +.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 +\&), \fBpnmhistmap\fP recognizes the following +command line options: + + + +.TP +\fB-red\fP +.TP +\fB-green\fP +.TP +\fB-blue\fP +Include the indicated color component in the output. If you +specify none of these, \fBpnmhistmap\fP include all three. +.sp +These options are meaningless if the input is PGM. +.sp +These options were new in Netpbm 10.26 (January 2005). Before +that, \fBpnmhistmap\fP always included all three color components. + +.TP +\fB-dots\fP +Plot the histogram as dots. By default, \fBpnmhistmap\fP plots +bars. +.sp +Example of dots:.B -dots example +.IMG -C testimg_histdot.png +.sp +This option was new in Netpbm 10.26 (January 2005). Before that, +\fBpnmhistmap\fP always plotted bars. + +.TP +\fB-lval\fP \fIminpixval\fP +.TP +\fB-rval\fP \fImaxpixval\fP +These options specify the range of intensity values to include. +\fBpnmhistmap\fP ignores intensities less than \fIminpixval\fP and +greater than \fImaxpixval\fP. So the left side of the histogram +corresponds to \fIminpixval\fP and the right side corresponds to +\fImaxpixval\fP. +.sp +By default, \fBpnmhistmap\fP plots the entire possible range: zero +to the maxval. +.sp +These options were new in Netpbm 10.26 (January 2005). Before that, +\fBpnmhistmap\fP always plotted from zero to the maxval. + +.TP +-height +.TP +-width +These options specify the dimensions, in pixels of the histogram image. +.sp +The default height is 200 pixels. +.sp +The default width is one pixel for each plotted intensity value (so it's +controlled by the maxval of the image and the \fB-lval\fP and \fB-rval\fP +options). The "count buckets" in the histogram are always +one pixel wide. If you specify a width less than the number of plotted +intensity values, a bucket represents more than one intensity value. +If you specify a width greater that the number of plotted intensity values, +some buckets represent no color (the count is zero). +.sp +This option was new in Netpbm 10.26 (January 2005). Before that, +the dimensions were always what the default is today. + +.TP +\fB-black \fP +Ignore the count of black pixels when scaling the histogram. + +.TP +\fB-white\fP +Ignore the count of white pixels when scaling the histogram. +.sp +The -black and -white options, which can be used separately or +together, are useful for images with a large percentage of pixels +whose value is zero or 255, which can cause the remaining histogram +data to become unreadably small. Note that, for color inputs, these +options apply to all colors; if, for example, the input has a large +number of bright-red areas, you will probably want to use the -white +option. + +.TP +\fB-max N\fP +Force the scaling of the histogram to use N as the largest-count value. +This is useful for inputs with a large percentage of single-color pixels +which are not black or white. + +.TP +\fB-verbose\fP +Report the progress of making the histogram, including the largest-count +value used to scale the output. + + + + +.UN limitations +.SH LIMITATIONS +.PP +\fBpnmhistmap\fP assumes maxval is always 255. Images with a +smaller maxval will only use the lower-value side of the histogram. +You can overcome this either by piping the input through +\fBpamdepth\fP or by cutting and scaling the lower-value side of the +histogram. Neither is a particularly elegant solution to the problem. + +.UN seealso +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR "pgmhist" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "ppmhist" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "pgm" (5)\c +\&, +.BR "ppm" (5)\c +\& + +.UN author +.SH AUTHOR +.PP +Wilson H.
