pbmpscale - enlarge a PBM image with edge smoothing
pbmpscale N [pbmfile]
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
pbmpscale reads a PBM image as input, and outputs a PBM image enlarged N times. pbmpscale does this enlargement by pixel replication, with some additional smoothing of corners and edges.
There are no command line options defined specifically
for pbmpscale, but it recognizes the options common to all
programs based on libnetpbm (See
Common Options
.)
