NAME
       mdatopbm - convert a Microdesign .mda or .mdp file into a PBM image

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

DESCRIPTION
       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.

OPTIONS
       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.
