NAME

       pnmtorast - convert a portable pixmap into a Sun rasterfile

SYNOPSIS

       pnmtorast [-standard|-rle] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads a portable pixmap as input.  Produces a Sun rasterfile as output.

       Color values in Sun rasterfiles are eight bits wide, so pnmtorast will automatically scale
       colors to have a maxval of 255.  An extra pnmdepth step is not necessary.

OPTIONS

       The -standard  flag  forces  the  result  to  be  in  RT_STANDARD  form;  the  -rle  flag,
       RT_BYTE_ENCODED, which is smaller but, well, less standard.  The default is -rle.

       All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
