NAME

   pnmtorast - convert a PPM into a Sun rasterfile

SYNOPSIS

   pnmtorast [-standard|-rle] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION

   This program is part of Netpbm.

   pnmtorastreads  a  portable pixmap as input and produces a Sun
rasterfile as
   output.

   Color values in Sun rasterfiles are eight bits wide,	 so  pnm-
torast will
   automatically  scale	 colors to have a maxval of 255. An extra
pnmdepth step
   is not necessary.

OPTIONS

   The -standard option forces the result to  be  in  RT_STANDARD
form; the -rle
   option,  RT_BYTE_ENCODED,  which  is	 smaller  but, well, less
standard. The
   default is -rle.

   All options can be abbreviated to their shortest  unique  pre-
fix.
