\&.

\fBpnminvert\fP reads a PNM image as input, inverts it black for
white, and produces a PNM image as output.

If the image is grayscale, \fBpnminvert\fP replaces a pixel with
one of complementary brightness, i.e. if the original pixel has gamma-adjusted
gray value G, the output pixel has gray value maxval - G.

If the image is color, \fBpnminvert\fP inverts each individual RGB
component the same as for a grayscale image.
