pbmtolps - convert PBM image to PostScript
<H2 id="synopsis">SYNOPSIS</H2>
<b>pbmtolps</b>
[<b>-dpi</b> <i>n</i>]
[<i>pbmfile</i>]
<H2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</H2>
<p>This program is part of <a href="index.html">Netpbm</a>.
<p><b>pbmtolps</b> reads a PBM image as input and outputs PostScript.
The output Postscript uses lines instead of the image operator to
generate a (device dependent) picture which will be imaged much
faster.
<p><b>pnmtops</b> is a more general program for converting from the Netpbm
formats to Postscript, though it cannot produce the particular arcane
subformat that <b>pbmtolps</b> does.
<P>The Postscript path length is constrained to be less that 1000
points so that no limits are overrun on the Apple Laserwriter and
(presumably) no other printers.
