<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<p>This program is part of <a href="index.html">Netpbm</a>.
<p><b>pnmtorast</b>reads a PPM image as input and produces a Sun
rasterfile as output.
<P>Color values in Sun rasterfiles are eight bits wide, so
<B>pnmtorast</B> will automatically scale colors to have a maxval of
255. An extra <B>pamdepth</B> step is not necessary.
<A NAME="lbAE"> </A>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
<P>The <B>-standard</B> option forces the result to be in RT_STANDARD
form; the <B>-rle</B> option, RT_BYTE_ENCODED, which is smaller but,
well, less standard. The default is <B>-rle</B>.
<P>All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
