NAME
    pbmtolj - convert a PBM image to HP LaserJet format

SYNOPSIS
    pbmtolj [-resolution N] [-float] [-noreset] [-packbits] [-delta] [-com-
    press] [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
    Specifies the resolution of the output device, in dpi.  Typical
    values are 75, 100, 150, 300, and 600. The default is 75.

    -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 begin-
    ning 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 com-
    pression.

    -copies
    Specifies the the number of copies. The default  is 1.  This
    option controls the "number of copies" printer control; pbmtolj
    generates only one copy of the image.

    All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
