NAME
pbmtoepsi - convert a portable bitmap into an encapsulated PostScript style preview bitmap SYNOPSIS
pbmtoepsi [-bbonly] [pbmfile] DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable bitmap as input. Produce an encapsulated Postscript style bitmap as output. The output is not a stand alone postscript file, it is only a preview bitmap, which can be included in an encapsulated PostScript file. Note that there is no epsitopbm tool - this transformation is one way. This utility is a part of the pstoepsi tool by Doug Crabill (dgc@cs.purdue.edu). OPTIONS
