<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<p>This program is part of <a href="index.html">Netpbm</a>.
<p><b>psidtopgm</b> reads the "image" data from a PostScript
file as input and produces a PGM image as output.
<P>This program is obsoleted by <B>pstopnm</B>.
What follows was written before <B>pstopnm </B> existed.
<P>This is a very simple and limited program, and is here only because
so many people have asked for it. To use it you have to
<em>manually</em> extract the readhexstring data portion from your
PostScript file, and then give the width, height, and bits/sample on
the command line. Before you attempt this, you should <em>at
least</em> read the description of the "image" operator in
the PostScript Language Reference Manual.
<P>It would probably not be too hard to write a script that uses this
filter to read a specific variety of PostScript image, but the
variation is too great to make a general-purpose reader. Unless, of
course, you want to write a full-fledged PostScript interpreter...
