NAME
fbm2pod - convert grayscale to Diablo graphics
SYNOPSIS
fbm2pod [ -fbc<parm> ] [-s<sharpen> ] [ size ] < 8bit > pod
DESCRIPTION
Equivalent to
fbhalf,
but generates a file for the Diablo printer at 30 dpi horizontal and 24
dpi vertical.
EXAMPLE
Given a grayscale image, reproduce it on a Diablo printer. Use blue
noise dithering and size the output for about 25,000 pixels (around 5x7
inches on a Diablo). Use sharpening with beta=10 to enhance edges:
% fbm2pod -s10 25000 < foo.8bit > foo.pod
At CMU, the podtype(1) command is used to send files to Diablo printers.
SEE ALSO
fbhalf(1) for options,
podtype(1) for printing on Diablos,
fbm(1) for general discussion,
pbm(1) for PBM routines.
BUGS
None known.
