pbmmake(1) General Commands Manual pbmmake(1)NAME
pbmmake - create a blank bitmap of a specified size
SYNOPSIS
pbmmake [-white|-black|-gray ] width height
DESCRIPTION
Produces a portable bitmap of the specified width and height. The color defaults to white.

In addition to the usual -white and -black, this program implements -gray. This gives a simple 50% gray pattern with 1's and 0's alternat-
ing.
All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

pnmpad(1) General Commands Manual pnmpad(1)NAME
pnmpad - add borders to portable anymap
SYNOPSIS
pnmpad [-verbose] [-white|-black]
[[[-width=width [-halign=ratio]] |
[-left=leftpad] [-right=rightpad]]]
[[[-height=height [-valign=ratio]] |
[-top=toppad] [-bottom=botpad]]]
[pnmfile]
All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix. You may use two hyphens instead of one to designate an option. You may
use either white space or an equals sign between an option name and its value.
DESCRIPTION
Reads a PNM image as input. Outputs a PNM image that is the input image plus black or white borders of the sizes specified.
If you just need to convert an image to a certain size regardless of the original dimensions, pnmcut with the -pad option may be a better
choice.
OPTIONS -verbose
Verbose output.
-white
-black (default)
Set pad color.
-left leftpad
-right rightpad
-top toppad
-bottom bottompad
Specify amount of padding in pixels.
-width width
Set desired width of image. Overrides -left and -right if specified. If width is less than the actual image width, it is ignored.
Use pnmcut(1) to cut off parts of images.
-height height
Set desired height of image. Overrides -top and -bottom if specified. If height is less than the actual image height, it is ignored.
Use pnmcut(1) to cut off parts of images.
-halign ratio
A real number between 0 and 1. Used in conjunction with -width, sets the alignment ratio between left padding and right padding.
Useful values:
0.0 - left aligned;
0.5 - center aligned (default);
1.0 - right aligned.
-valign ratio
A real number between 0 and 1. Used in conjunction with -height, sets the alignment ratio between bottom padding and top padding.
Useful values:
0.0 - bottom aligned;
0.5 - center aligned (default);
1.0 - top aligned.
HISTORY
Before February 2002,
pnmpad had a different option syntax which was less expressive and not like conventional Netpbm programs. That syntax is still
understood by pnmpad for backward compatibility, but not documented or supported for future use.
