NAME

pcdovtoppm - create index image for a photo CD

SYNOPSIS

pcdovtoppm [-m width] [-s size] [-a across] [-c colors] [-f font] [-b|-w] [pcdfile]

DESCRIPTION

This program is part of Netpbm(1).

This program generates an index image in PPM format for a photo CD, based on the photo CD overview file.

You can achieve a similar result with hpcdtoppm -Overview followed by pnmindex -black on the generated PPM images.

OPTIONS

In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -quiet, see
Common Options
), pcdovtoppm recognizes the following command line options:

Maximum width of the result image (default: 1152).
Maximum size of each of the images (default: 192).
Maximum number of images across (default: 6).
Maximum number of colors, or n

to mean no quantization

Font to be used for annotation (default: internal font).
Black background color (default).
White background color.

The Netpbm common options -version, -plain and -quiet were implemented starting with Netpbm 10.91 (June 2020). Before that, none of these options were valid.

EXAMPLES

pcdovtoppm -m 768 -s 96 -f smallfont.pbm overview.pcd > overview.ppm

pcdovtoppm /cdrom/photo_cd/overview.pcd | ppmtojpeg > overview.jpg

HISTORY

This program was formerly called pcdindex, which did not fit Netpbm naming conventions.
