pbmreduce
pbmreduce(1) General Commands Manual pbmreduce(1)
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.
pbmreduce duplicates a lot of the functionality of pgmtopbm; you could do something like pnmscale | pgmtopbm, but pbmreduce is a lot
faster.
pbmreduce can be used to "re-halftone" an image. Let's say you have a scanner that only produces black&white, not grayscale, and it does a
terrible job of halftoning (most b&w scanners fit this description). One way to fix the halftoning is to scan at the highest possible res-
olution, say 300 dpi, and then reduce by a factor of three or so using pbmreduce. You can even correct the brightness of an image, by
using the -value flag.
OPTIONS
By default, the halftoning after the reduction is done via boustrophedonic Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion; however, the -threshold 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 quantizations. 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 prefix.
