tgatoppm(1) - Linux man page
Name
tgatoppm - convert TrueVision Targa file to a PPM image
Synopsis
- tgatoppm
[--alphaout={alpha-filename,-}]
[--headerdump] tga-filename
Description
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
tgatoppm reads a TrueVision Targa file as input and produces a PPM image as output.
Options
All options can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
- --alphaout=alpha-filename
- tgatoppm creates a PGM image containing the alpha channel values in the input image. If the input image doesn't contain an alpha channel, the
alpha-filename file contains all zero (transparent) alpha values. If you don't specify --alphaout, tgatoppm does not generate an alpha
file, and if the input image has an alpha channel, tgatoppm simply discards it.
If you specify - as the filename, tgatoppm writes the alpha output to Standard Output and discards the image.
See pamcomp(1)foronewaytouse the alpha output file.
- --headerdump
- Causes tgatoppm to dump information from the TGA header to Standard Error.
