20 This program is part of Netpbm(1).
21
22 pamtopdbimg reads a Netpbm image as input and produced a Palm Pilot
23 Image Viewer image (and Image record in a PDB file) as output.
24
25 If the Netpbm image is black and white, the Pilot image is monochrome.
26 Otherwise, the Pilot image is either 4-level or 16-level grayscale,
27 depending on the -4depth option.

32 In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
33 (most notably -quiet, see
34 Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ ), pamtopdbimg recognizes
35 the following command line options:
36
37
38
39
40 -title=text
41 The title of the image, to be included in the image.
42
43
44 -compressed
45
46 -uncompressed
47
48 -maybecompressed
49 You may specify only one of these. -compressed says to generate
50 the image in compressed format. -uncompressed says to generate
51 the image in uncompressed format. -maybecompressed says to gen‐
52 erate whichever format is smaller (the compression algorithm
53 sometimes actually makes the data larger).
54
55
56 -4depth
57 This option makes pamtopdbimg create the image in 16-level
58 grayscale (4 bits per pixel) format. If you don't specify this,
59 pamtopdbimg uses 4-level (2 bits per pixel) format.
60
61 This option has no effect when the input is black and white
62 (maxval 1). In that case, pamtopdbimg generates the monochrome
63 (1 bit per pixel) format regardless.
64
65
66 -notefile=filename
67 Attach the note in the specified file to the image.
68
69 If you don't specify this, pamtopdbimg does not attach any note.

79 pamtopdbimg was new in Netpbm 10.52 (September 2010). It was modelled
80 after Eric A. Howe's imgvtopbm package, which dates back to September
81 1997.
