mdatopbm - Man Page

• Convert a MDA file to a PBM image: mdatopbm path/to/image.mda > path/to/output.pbm
• Invert the colors in the input image: mdatopbm -i path/to/image.mda > path/to/output.pbm

mdatopbm [-d] [-i] [--] [mdafile]

This program is part of Netpbm(1).

mdatopbm reads a MicroDesign file as input and Produces a PBM image as output.

If you don't specify mdafile, mdatopbm takes its input from Standard Input.

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

-d

Double the height of the output file, to compensate for the aspect ratio used in MicroDesign files.

-i

Invert the colors used.

--

End of options (use this if the filename starts with "-")

The program also accepts option -a for historical reasons, for
 the same meaning as the Netpbm common option -plain.
