.SH "NAME"
gdcmpap3 \- Tool to convert PAPYRUS 3\&.0 to DICOM\&.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The
\fBgdcmpap3\fR
command line program takes as input a PAPYRUS 3\&.0 file (file\-in) and process it to generate an output (pseudo) DICOM file (file\-out)\&. The command line option dictate the type of operation(s)
\fBgdcmpap3\fR
will use to generate the output file\&.
.SH "PARAMETERS"

     \-\-decomp\-pap3      Use PAPYRUS 3\&.0 for decompressing (can be combined with \-\-split)\&.

.SH "SIMPLE USAGE"
.PP
\fBgdcmpap3\fR
is a great tool to convert broken PAPYRUS 3\&.0 implementation into properly parsable DICOM file\&. Usage is simply:
.PP
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
$ gdcmpap3 input\&.pa3 output\&.dcm
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.PP
or if you prefer being explicit:
.PP
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
$ gdcmpap3 \-i input\&.pa3 \-o output\&.dcm
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.PP
Even though
\fBgdcmpap3\fR
can overwrite directly on the same file (\fBinput\&.pa3\fR
=
\fBoutput\&.dcm\fR), it is recommended that user should first convert into a different file to make sure the bug is properly handled by GDCM\&.
