NAME

       pnmtorast - convert a PPM into a Sun rasterfile

SYNOPSIS

       pnmtorast [-standard|-rle] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pnmtorastreads a PPM image as input and 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 pamdepth step is not necessary.

OPTIONS

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

       All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

       -standard

              Forces the result to be in RT_STANDARD form.

       -rle

              Forces the result to be in  RT_BYTE_ENCODED,  which  is  smaller  but,  well,  less
              standard.

              The default is -rle.
