NAME

       mdatopbm - convert a Microdesign .mda or .mdp file into a PBM image

SYNOPSIS

       mdatopbm [-d] [-i] [--] [mdafile]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       mdatopbm reads a MicroDesign file as input and Produces a PBM image as output.

       If you don't specify mdafile, mdatopbm takes its input from Standard Input.

OPTIONS

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

       -d     Double  the  height  of the output file, to compensate for the aspect ratio used in
              MicroDesign files.

       -i     Invert the colors used.

       --     End of options (use this if the filename starts with "-")

       The program also accepts option -a for historical reasons, for
         the same meaning as the Netpbm common option -plain.
