DESCRIPTION

31       This program is part of Netpbm(1).
32
33       ppmtopj reads a PPM image as input and converts it into a format  suit‐
34       able to be printed by an HP PaintJet printer.
35
36       For best results, the input file should be in 8-color RGB form; i.e. it
37       should have only the 8 binary combinations of full-on and full-off pri‐
38       maries.  You could convert your input to this format like this:
39
40           pamseq 3 1 testimg.ppm >8color.pam
41           pnmremap -map 8color.pam testimg.pam | ppmtopj
42
43       Or you could use
44           ppmdither -red 2 -green 2 -blue 2

OPTIONS

48       In  addition  to  the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
49       (most notably -quiet, see
50        Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ ),  ppmtopj  recognizes  the
51       following command line options:
52
53
54
55
56       -rle   Run length encode the image.  (This can result in larger images)
57
58
59       -back  Enhance  the foreground by indicating if the background is light
60              or dark compared to the foreground.
61
62
63       -render alg
64              Use an internal rendering algorithm (default dither).
65
66
67       -gamma int
68              Gamma correct the  image  using  the  integer  int  as  a  gamma
69              (default 0).
70
71
72       -center
73              Center the image to an 8.5 by 11 page
74
75
76       -xpos pos
77              Move by pos pixels in the x direction.
78
79
80       -ypos pos
81              Move by pos pixels in the y direction.
