NAME

       pbmtocis - convert a PBM image to a CompuServe RLE image

SYNOPSIS

       pbmtocis [-i] [-w] [cisfile]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pbmtocis reads a PBM image as input and produces a CompuServe RLE image as output.

       A  CompuServe  RLE  image  can be either 128 x 96 pixels or 256 x 192 pixels.  Anything in
       excess on the right or bottom is cropped.  If width or height is insufficient, padding  is
       added  on  the  right  or bottom.  For better control of the size adjustment use pamcut or
       pnmpad.

OPTIONS

       In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -quiet,
       see
        Common  Options  ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩  ), pbmtocis recognizes the following command
       line options:

       -i     Inverse: Reverse the mapping of foreground/background to black/white.

       -w     If the input image is smaller than the fixed size of the  output  image,  pad  with
              white pixels rather than black.
