NAME
       pnmtorast - convert a PPM into a Sun rasterfile

SYNOPSIS
       pnmtorast [-standard|-rle] [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pnmtorastreads a PPM image as input and produces a Sun rasterfile as output.

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

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

       All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.

       -standard

              Forces the result to be in RT_STANDARD form.

       -rle

              Forces the result to be in RT_BYTE_ENCODED, which is smaller but, well, less standard.

              The default is -rle.
