This program is part of Netpbm(1). pngtopnm was obsoleted by pngtopam(1),introducedwithNetpbm10.44 (September 2008). pngtopam is backward compatible with pngtopnm, plus adds many additional functions, including the ability to produce a PAM image that includes an alpha (transparency) channel. Starting in Release 10.48, pngtopnm is just an alias for pngtopam. pngtopnm remained in the Netpbm package through Release 10.47 because it may have fewer bugs than pngtopam in those releases, and may be faster in some environments. But pngtopnm’s incompatibility with the most current PNG libraries makes it impractical to maintain along with pngtopam now. In releases before 10.48, you can use the pngtopam documentation for pngtopnm, considering the following differences: |
|
• |
pngtopnm options are a subset of pngtopam’s, as documented above. |
||
|
• |
Any change that the pngtopam manual says happened in or after Netpbm 10.44 doesn’t apply to pngtopnm. |
