pamtohtmltbl1

Usage

Overview

This program is part of Netpbm(1) .

pamtohtmltbl converts a visual image to an HTML table with one cell per pixel. The cell is empty, but its background color is that of the pixel.

file is a PBM, PGM, PPM, or PAM file. If PAM, it must be a standard visual image of tuple type RGB, GRAYSCALE, or BLACKANDWHITE, or something equivalent with extra higher numbered channels, but pamtohtmltbl doesn't check the tuple type; it just assumes.

Note that the more normal way to include a visual image in an HTML document is with a <IMG> tag.

Not all web browsers render tables as pamtohtmltbl expects, and therefore show a grossly distorted image. Internet Explorer 7 on Windows and Opera 9.02 on Windows have been seen to work; Firefox 2.0.0.16 on the same Windows system has been seen not to.

Options

In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -quiet, see
Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ ), pamtohtmltbl recognizes the following command line options:

-transparent=color

This option indicates that pixels of the specified color are to be transparent in the HTML table. The table cell for a pixel of this color will have no background color specified.

Specify the color (color) as described for the argument of the pnm_parsecolor() library routine ⟨libnetpbm_image.html#colorname⟩ .

-verbose

This option causes pamtohtmltbl to display messages about the conversion process.
