SYNOPSIS
mdatopbm [-d] [-i] [--] [mdafile]
DESCRIPTION
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
mdatopbm reads a MicroDesign file as input and Produces a PBM image as
output.
If you don't specify mdafile, mdatopbm takes its input from Standard In-
put.
OPTIONS
In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
(most notably -quiet, see ]8;;index.html#commonoptions\ Common Options]8;;\ ), mdatopbm recognizes the
following command line options:
-d Double the height of the output file, to compensate for the as-
pect ratio used in MicroDesign files.
-i Invert the colors used.
-- End of options (use this if the filename starts with "-")
The program also accepts option -a for historical reasons, for
the same meaning as the Netpbm common option -plain.
