pbmtoepsi—Convert a portable bitmap into an encapsulated PostScript-style preview bitmap
SYNOPSIS
pbmtoepsi [-bbonly][pbmfile]
DESCRIPTION
pbmtoepsi reads a portable bitmap as input and produces an encapsulated PostScript-style bitmap as output. The output is not a standalone PostScript file; it is only a preview bitmap, which can be included in an encapsulated PostScript file. Note that there is no epsitopbm tool; this transformation is one-way.
This utility is a part of the pstoepsi tool by Doug Crabill (dgc@cs.purdue.edu).
OPTIONS
-bbonly Only create a boundary box, don't fill it with the image.

pbmtogo—Convert a portable bitmap into compressed GraphOn graphics
SYNOPSIS
pbmtogo [pbmfile]
Page 361
DESCRIPTION
pbmtogo reads a portable bitmap as input and produces 2D compressed GraphOn graphics as output. Be sure to set up your GraphOn with the following modes: 8 bits/no parity; obeys no XON/XOFF; NULs are accepted. These are all on the Comm menu. Also, remember to turn off tty post processing. Note that there is no gotopbm tool.

pbmtolj—Convert a portable bitmap into HP LaserJet format
SYNOPSIS
pbmtolj [-resolution N][-float][-noreset][pbmfile]
DESCRIPTION
pbmtolj reads a portable bitmap as input and produces HP LaserJet data as output.
Note that there is no ljtopbm tool.
OPTIONS
| -resolution | Specifies the resolution of the output device, in dpi. Typical values are 75, 100, 150, 300. The default is 75. |
| -float | Suppresses positioning information. The default is to write the sequence ESC & l 0 E to the output file. |
| -noreset | Prevents pbmtolj from writing the reset sequences to the beginning and end of the output file. |
All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

SYNOPSIS
pbmtoln03 [-rltbf] pbmfile
DESCRIPTION
pbmtoln03 reads a portable bitmap as input and produces a DEC LN03+ Sixel output file.
OPTIONS
| -l nn | Use nn as value for left margin (default 0). |
| -r nn | Use nn as value for right margin (default 2400). |
| -t nn | Use nn as value for top margin (default 0). |
| -b nn | Use nn as value for bottom margin (default 3400). |
| -f nn | Use nn as value for form length (default 3400). |

pbmtolps—Convert a portable bitmap to PostScript
SYNOPSIS
pbmtolps [ -dpi n ] [ pbmfile ]
DESCRIPTION
pbmtolps reads a portable bitmap as input, and outputs PostScript. The output PostScript uses lines instead of the image operator to generate a (device-dependent) picture that will be imaged much faster.
The PostScript path length is constrained to be less that 1000 points so that no limits are overrun on the Apple Laserwriter and (presumably) no other printers.

pbmtomacp—Convert a portable bitmap into a MacPaint file
SYNOPSIS
pbmtomacp [-l left][-r right][-b bottom][-t top][pbmfile]
DESCRIPTION
pbmtomacp reads a portable bitmap as input. If no input file is given, standard input is assumed. Produces a MacPaint file as output.
The generated file is only the data fork of a picture. You will need a program such as mcvert to generate a Macbinary or a BinHex file that contains the necessary information to identify the file as a PNTG file to MacOS.
OPTIONS
Left, right, bottom, and top let you define a square into the PBM file, which must be converted. Default is the whole file. If the file is too large for a MacPaint file, the bitmap is cut to fit from (left, top).
BUGS
The source code contains comments in a language other than English.
