<h2>NAME</h2>

ppmtoapplevol - convert a PPM into an Apple volume label image

<h2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</h2>

<b>ppmtoapplevol</b>

[<i>ppmfile</i>]

<h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>

<p>This program is part of <a href="index.html">Netpbm</a>.

<p><b>ppmtoapplevol</b> reads a PPM image as input and produces an Apple
volume label image as output.

<p>EFI-based Apple systems use a simple image format to provide textual labels
for devices.  This program generates that format.

<p>The input image must be exactly 12 rows tall and up to 255 columns wide.
  The program fails if it is not.  Use <b>pamfile</b> to see the dimensions of
  your image and <b>pamscale</b> or <b>pamcut</b> to make it 12 rows and less
  than 256 columns if it isn't.

<p>Netpbm does not have a converter for the other direction.

<h2 id="arguments">ARGUMENTS</h2>

<p>The optional <i>ppmfile</i> argument is the name of the input file.
  The default is to read the input image from Standard Input.

<h2 id="options">OPTIONS</h2>

<p>There are no command line options defined specifically
for <b>ppmtoapplevol</b>, but it recognizes the options common to all
programs based on libnetpbm (See <a href="index.html#commonoptions">
Common Options</a>.)
