SYNOPSIS
pcdovtoppm [-maxwidth width] [-size size] [-across across] [-colors col-
ors] [-font font] [-black |-white] [pcdfile]
Minimum unique abbreviations of options are acceptable.
DESCRIPTION
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
This program generates an index image in PPM format for a photo CD,
based on the photo CD overview file.
You can achieve a similar result with hpcdtoppm -Overview followed by
pnmindex -black on the generated PPM images.
OPTIONS
In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
(most notably -quiet, see ]8;;index.html#commonoptions\ Common Options]8;;\ ), pcdovtoppm recognizes the
following command line options:
Where options conflict, the rightmost one takes precedence.
-maxwidth width
Maximum width of the result image (default: 1152).
-size size
Maximum size of each of the images (default: 192).
-across across
Maximum number of images across (default: 6).
-colors colors
Maximum number of colors, or noquant to mean no quantization
-font font
Font to be used for annotation (default: internal font).
-black Black background color (default).
This is the default.
-white White background color.
The Netpbm common options -version, -plain and -quiet were implemented
starting with Netpbm 10.91 (June 2020). Before that, none of these op-
tions were valid.
EXAMPLES
pcdovtoppm -m 768 -s 96 -f smallfont.pbm overview.pcd > overview.ppm
