DESCRIPTION

   This program is part of Netpbm.

   pnmscale  was  obsoleted  by	 pamscale, introduced with Netpbm
10.20 (January
   2004).  pamscale  is backward compatible with  pnmscale,  plus
adds many
   additional functions, including the ability to process PAM im-
ages, and tends
   to produce better results.

   pnmscale remains in the  current  Netpbm  package  because  it
probably has fewer
   bugs	  for	now   than   pamscale,	 and  may  have	 superior
performance
   characteristics in some cases. Some day, pnmscale will  proba-
bly become an
   alias for pamscale.

   You	can  use the pamscale documentation for pnmscale, consid-
ering the
   following differences:
     * pnmscale options are a subset of pamscale's, as documented
above.
     *	pnmscale  always assumes the input is linear, as pamscale
does when you
       specify its -linear option.
     * pnmscale cannot process PAM images.
