description
Reads a PBM,
PGM, or PPM image as input. Removes borders that are the
background color, and produces the same type of image as
output.
If you
don’t specify otherwise, pnmcrop assumes the
background color is whatever color the top left and right
corners of the image are and if they are different colors,
something midway between them. You can specify that the
background is white or black with the -white and
-black options or make pnmcrop base its guess
on all four corners instead of just two with
-sides.
By default,
pnmcrop chops off any stripe of background color it
finds, on all four sides. You can tell pnmcrop to
remove only specific borders with the -left,
-right, -top, and -bottom options.
If you want to
chop a specific amount off the side of an image, use
pnmcut.
If you want to
add different borders after removing the existing ones, use
pnmcat or pnmcomp.
options
-white
Take white to be the background
color. pnmcrop removes borders which are white.
-black
Take black to be the background color. pnmcrop
removes borders which are black.
-sides
Determine the background color from the colors of the
four corners of the input image. pnmcrop removes
borders which are of the background color.
If at least
three of the four corners are the same color, pnmcrop
takes that as the background color. If not, pnmcrop
looks for two corners of the same color in the following
order, taking the first found as the background color: top,
left, right, bottom. If all four corners are different
colors, pnmcrop assumes an average of the four colors
as the background color.
The
-sides option slows pnmcrop down, as it reads
the entire image to determine the background color in
addition to the up to three times that it would read it
without -sides.
-left
Remove any left border.
-right
Remove any right border.
-top
Remove any top border.
-bottom
Remove any bottom border.
-verbose
Print on Standard Error
information about the processing, including exactly how much
is being cropped off of which sides.
