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 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
generates only one copy of the image.
All flags can
be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
