- NAME
- pbmreduce - read a portable bitmap and reduce it N times
-
- SYNOPSIS
- pbmreduce [-floyd|-fs | -threshold] [-value <val>] N
- [pbmfile]
-
- DESCRIPTION
- Reads a portable bitmap as input. Reduces it by a factor of
- N, and produces a portable bitmap as output. By default,
- the halftoning after the reduction is done via boustro-
- phedonic Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion; however, the
- -thresh flag can be used to specify simple thresholding.
- This gives better results when reducing line drawings.
-
- The -value flag alters the thresholding value for all quant-
- izations. It should be a real number between 0 and 1.
- Above 0.5 means darker images; below 0.5 means lighter.
-
- All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique pre-
- fix.
