The <B>-nopack</B> option generates a file which +does not use the normal TIFF 4.0 compression method. This file might +be printable on a normal PaintJet printer (not an XL). + +<P>The <B>-gamma</B> option sets the gamma correction for the +image. The useful range for the PaintJet XL is approximately 0.6 to +1.5. + +<P>You an alter the rendering algorithm used for images with the +<B>-dither,</B> <B>-cluster,</B> and <B>-diffuse</B> options. These +options select ordered dithering, clustered ordered dithering, or +error diffusion respectively. You can use the <B>-dark</B> option to +enhance images with a dark background when they are reduced in size. +The <B>-presentation</B> option turns on presentation mode, in which +two passes are made over the paper to increase ink density. You +should use this only for images where quality is critical. + +<P>You can resize the image by setting the <B>-xsize</B> and +<B>-ysize</B> options. The parameter to either of these options is +interpreted as the number of dots to set the width or height to, but +you may append an optional dimension of `<B>pt</B>' (points), +`<B>dp</B>' (decipoints), `<B>in</B>' (inches), or `<B>cm</B>' +(centimetres). If you specify only one dimension, <b>ppmtopjxl</b> +will scale the other one appropriately. + +<P>The options <B>-width</B> and <B>-height</B> are synonyms of +<B>-xsize</B> and <B>-ysize.</B> + +<P>You can alternatively use the <B>-xscale</B> and <B>-yscale</B> +options to scale the image by a simple factor. + +<P>You can shift the image on the page with the <B>-xshift</B> and +<B>-yshift</B> options. These move the image the specified dimensions +right and down. + +<A NAME="lbAE"> </A> +<H2>SEE ALSO</H2> + +<A HREF="ppm.html">ppm</A> + +<A NAME="lbAF"> </A> +<H2>AUTHOR</H2> + +<p>Angus Duggan + +<HR> +<A NAME="index"> </A> +<H2>Table Of Contents</H2> +<UL> +<LI><A HREF="#lbAB">NAME</A> +<LI><A HREF="#lbAC">SYNOPSIS</A> +<LI><A HREF="#lbAD">DESCRIPTION</A> +<LI><A HREF="#lbAE">SEE ALSO</A> +<LI><A HREF="#lbAF">AUTHOR</A> +</UL> +</BODY> +</HTML> + + + + |
