convert_image - convert images to CBF format using a template
convert_image is a program that can convert images from a
MAR180, MAR300, MAR345 or ADSC CCD detector and convert them to CBF
format.
convert_image requires two arguments: imagefile and
cbffile. Those are the primary input and output. The detector type is
extracted from the image file or from the command line, converted to lower
case and used to construct the name of a template cbf file to use for the
copy. The template file name is of the form template_name_columnsxrows.
To run makecbf with the example image, type:
- makecbf example.mar2300
test.cbf
-
- -i input_img
- (default: stdin) the input file as an image in smv, mar300, or mar345
format. If input_img is not specified or is given as "-", it is
copied from stdin to a temporary file.
- -p
template_cbf
- the template for the final cbf to be produced. If template_cbf is not
specified the name is constructed from the first token of the detector
name and the image size as
template_<type>_<columns>x<rows>.cbf
- -o output_cbf
- (default: stdout ) the output cbf combining the image and the template. If
the output_cbf is not specified or is given as "-", it is
written to stdout.
- -d
detectorname
- a detector name to be used if none is provided in the image header.
- -F
- when writing packed compression, treat the entire image as one line with
no averaging
- -m [x|y|x=y]
- (default x=y, square arrays only) mirror the array in the x-axis (y ->
-y) in the y-axis (x -> -x) or in x=y ( x -> y, y-> x)
- -r n
- rotate the array n times 90 degrees counter clockwise x -> y, y ->
-x for each rotation, n = 1, 2 or 3
- -R
- if setting a beam center, set reference values of axis settings as well as
standard settings
- -z distance
- detector distance along Z-axis
- -c
category_alias=category_root
- -t
tag_alias=tagroot
- map the given alias to the given root, so that instead of outputting the
alias, the root will be presented in the output cbf instead. These options
may be repeated as many times as needed.
