NAME
       ppmtoapplevol - convert a PPM into an Apple volume label image

SYNOPSIS
       ppmtoapplevol

       [ppmfile]

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       ppmtoapplevol reads a PPM image as input and produces an Apple volume label image as output.

       EFI-based Apple systems use a simple image format to provide textual labels for devices.	 This program generates that
       format.

       The input image must be exactly 12 rows tall and up to 255 columns wide.
	 The program fails if it is not.  Use pamfile to see the dimensions of
	 your image and pamscale or pamcut to make it 12 rows and less
	 than 256 columns if it isn't.

       Netpbm does not have a converter for the other direction.

ARGUMENTS
       The optional ppmfile argument is the name of the input file.
	 The default is to read the input image from Standard Input.

OPTIONS
       There are no command line options defined specifically for ppmtoapplevol, but it recognizes the options common to all
       programs based on libnetpbm (See	 Common Options .)
