 <p>This program is part of <a href="index.html">Netpbm</a>.
 
 <p><b>sldtoppm</b> reads an AutoCAD&#174; slide file and outputs a PPM

 input from Standard Input.  <b>sldtoppm</b> uses the <b>ppmdraw</b>
 library to convert the vector and polygon information in the slide
 file to a raster; see the file <b>ppmdraw.h</b> for details on this
 package.
