_t_o_c_h_u_n_k_y converts an SGI image file into SGI CHUNKY data format, for use
by CHUNKY format printer drivers. However, the SGI CHUNKY chunky format
has been superseded by Stream TIFF (STIFF). Conversions from SGI Image
File format to STIFF are most efficiently accomplished by converting from
SGI Image File format to PostScript using the program _s_g_i_2_p_s and then
converting the PostScript to STIFF using the program _p_s_r_i_p.
New development work should not use the SGI CHUNKY format.

By default, tochunky assumes a zoomfactor of 1.0, and thus scales the
image to be printed as large as possible without cropping.
The ----PPPP option is followed by the full path to the printer's POD this
option is given all settings except the zoomfactor are filled in from the
config file, and need not be given unless the user wishes to override the
settings in the POD database.
The ----aaaa option specifies the printer's imageable area in dots in the
horizontal (xsize) and vertical (ysize) directions. These values are
normally derived from the POD database, which is kept up to date with the
currently loaded paper size.
The ----llll option specifies the printer resolution in dots per inch in the
horizontal (xdpi) and vertical (ydpi) directions. These values are
normally derived from the POD database, which is kept up to date with the
current printer configuration.
The ----dddd option specifies the printer data format, one of the following: KKKK
(black only), CCCCMMMMYYYY (CMY only), or CCCCMMMMYYYYKKKK (CMYK data). The data format is
normally derived from the POD database, which is kept up to date with the
current printer configuration.
If the ----zzzz option is given, then the image will be resized based on
_z_o_o_m_f_a_c_t_o_r. _Z_o_o_m_f_a_c_t_o_r is a floating point value between 0.0 and 1.0,
inclusive. The _z_o_o_m_f_a_c_t_o_r argument specifies a relative scaling: the
scaling is proportional to the area of page which should be filled, and
_z_o_o_m_f_a_c_t_o_r may be considered to be a percentage fill argument when its
value is between 0.01 and 1.00. However, ----zzzz 0000....0000 is the exception to the
rule: ----zzzz 0000....0000 indicates that _t_o_c_h_u_n_k_y should not zoom the image, but
should print exactly one printer dot per image pixel.

The resultant image is never cropped and is always centered on the page.

1. The ----PPPP option currently requires a full pathname to the printer's
require just the printer name.
2. The ----zzzz option does not currently rotate the image if the image could
be printed larger when printed 90 degrees rotated.
3. Since the ----pppp ppppppppiiii "pixels per inch" option is not implemented,
setting the ----llll option will have no effect on the output image.

This program has been obsoleted. All new development should be done with
_s_g_i_2_p_s and _p_s_r_i_p and should use the STIFF file format. The _t_o_c_h_u_n_k_y
program is provided for compatibility with previous releases of the
Impressario product and may be removed from future releases.
