[\fI\,InputFile4\/\fR] .SH DESCRIPTION ConvertType is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.8. ConvertType will convert any of the known input formats to any other of the known formats. The output file will have the same number of pixels. .PP For more information, please run any of the following commands. In particular the second contains a very comprehensive explanation of ConvertType's invocation: expected input(s), output(s), and a full description of all the options. .TP All options and their values: $ astconvertt \fB\-P\fR .TP Inputs/Outputs and options: $ info astconvertt .TP Full section in manual/book: $ info ConvertType .TP Full Gnuastro manual/book: $ info gnuastro .PP If you couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help from experienced Gnuastro users and developers. For more information, please run: .IP \f(CW$ info help-gnuastro\fR .PP ConvertType options: .IP Input: .TP \fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-hdu\fR=\fI\,STR\/\fR/INT FITS input HDU, multiple calls possible. .TP \fB\-\-stdintimeout\fR=\fI\,INT\/\fR Micro\-seconds to wait for standard input. .IP Output: .TP \fB\-b\fR, \fB\-\-borderwidth\fR=\fI\,INT\/\fR EPS/PDF border width in units of 1/72 inch. .TP \fB\-\-colormap\fR=\fI\,STR[\/\fR,FLT] Color map when only a single channel is given. .TP \fB\-D\fR, \fB\-\-dontdelete\fR Don't delete output if it exists. .TP \fB\-K\fR, \fB\-\-keepinputdir\fR Keep input directory for automatic output. .TP \fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-output\fR=\fI\,STR\/\fR Output filename or suffix. .TP \fB\-\-rgbtohsv\fR Convert RGB input into HSV (in FITS output) .TP \fB\-u\fR, \fB\-\-quality\fR=\fI\,INT\/\fR Quality of output JPEG image (1 to 100). .TP \fB\-w\fR, \fB\-\-widthincm\fR=\fI\,FLT\/\fR Width in units of centimeters. .TP \fB\-x\fR, \fB\-\-hex\fR Hexadecimal encoding in EPS.
