109
110       By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its magic  num‐
111       ber.   To  specify a particular image format, precede the filename with
112       an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify  the  image
113       type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps).  Specify 'file' as '-' for
114       standard input or output.
