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. Otherwise, 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
Common Options ), 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.
