NAME
pdbimgtopam - convert a Palm Pilot Image Viewer PDB Image to a PAM image
SYNOPSIS
pdbimgtopam
[-notefile=filename] [-verbose]
[pdbimgfile]
DESCRIPTION
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
pdbimgtopam reads a Palm Pilot Image Viewer image (and Image record in a
PDB file) as input, from Standard Input or palmfile, and produces a PAM
image as output.
If the Pilot image is monochrome, the PAM output has maxval 1. Other-
wise, it has maxval 255. Note that Pilot images are always monochrome.
The PAM image has tuple type GRAYSCALE.
OPTIONS
In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
(most notably -quiet, see ]8;;index.html#commonoptions\ Common Options]8;;\ ), pdbimgtopam recognizes the
following command line options:
-verbose
Display various interesting information about the input file and
process.
-notefile=filename
Write the image note (if any) to the specified file.
If you don't specify this, pdbimgtopam ignores any image note.
