       pbmtolj [-resolution N] [-float] [-noreset] [-packbits] [-delta] [-compress] [pbmfile] [-copies N]

DESCRIPTION
       Reads a PBM image as input.  Produces HP LaserJet data as output.

       Note that there is no ljtopbm tool.

OPTIONS
       -resolution

       -float Suppresses positioning information.  The default is to write the sequence ESC & l 0 E to the output file.

       -noreset
	      Prevents pbmtolj from writing the reset sequences to the beginning and end of the output file.

       -packbits
	      Enables use of TIFF packbits compression.

       -delta Enables use of delta-between-rows compression.

       -compress
	      Enables use of both TIFF packbits, and delta-between-rows compression.

       -copies
	      Specifies  the  the number of copies. The default is 1.  This option controls the "number of copies" printer control; pbmtolj gener-
