harris sinc lanczos3 radial-lanczos3 nuke-lanczos6 mitchell bspline disk cubic keys simon rifman,
default=box)
--hicomp
Compress HDR range before resize, expand after.

Sharpen MIP levels (default = 0.0 = no)
--nomipmap
Do not make multiple MIP-map levels
--checknan
Check for NaN/Inf values (abort if found)
--fixnanSTRATEGY
Attempt to fix NaN/Inf values in the image (options: none, black, box3)
--fullpixels
Set the 'full' image range to be the pixel data window --Mcamera %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f
%f %f %f %f %f Set the camera matrix --Mscreen %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f Set
the screen matrix --MNDC %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f %f Set the NDC matrix
--prman-metadata
Add prman specific metadata
--attribNAMEVALUE
Sets metadata attribute (name, value)
--sattribNAMEVALUE
Sets string metadata attribute (name, value)
--sansattrib
Write command line into Software & ImageHistory but remove --sattrib and --attriboptions--constant-color-detect
Create 1-tile textures from constant color inputs
--monochrome-detect
Create 1-channel textures from monochrome inputs
--opaque-detect
Drop alpha channel that is always 1.0
--no-compute-average
Don't compute and store average color
--ignore-unassoc
Ignore unassociated alpha tags in input (don't autoconvert)
--runstats
Print runtime statistics
--mipimageFILENAME
Specify an individual MIP level
--cdf Store the forward and inverse Gaussian CDF as a lookup-table. The variance is set by cdfsigma (1/6
by default), and the number of buckets in the lookup table is determined by cdfbits
(8 bit - 256 buckets by default)
--cdfsigmaN
Specify the Gaussian sigma parameter when writing the forward and inverse Gaussian CDF data. The
default vale is 1/6 (0.1667)
--cdfbitsN
Specify the number of bits used to store the forward and inverse Gaussian CDF. The default value
is 8 bits
Basic modes (default is plain texture):
--shadow
Create shadow map
--envlatl
Create lat/long environment map
--lightprobe
Create lat/long environment map from a light probe
--bumpslopes
Create a 6 channels bump-map with height, derivatives and square derivatives from an height
or a normal map
--uvslopes_scaleVALUE
If specified, compute derivatives for --bumpslopes in UV space rather than in texel space
and divide them by a scale factor. 0=disable by default, only valid for height maps.
--bumpformatNAME
Specify the interpretation of a 3-channel input image for --bumpslopes: "height", "normal"
or "auto" (default).
--handedSTRING
Specify the handedness of a vector or normal map: "left", "right", or "" (default).
Color Management Options (OpenColorIO enabled)
--colorconfigFILENAME
Explicitly specify an OCIO configuration file
--colorconvertINOUT
Apply a color space conversion to the image. If the output color space is not the same bit
depth as input color space, it is your responsibility to set the data format to the proper
bit depth using the -d option. (choices: NONE)
--unpremult
Unpremultiply before color conversion, then premultiply after the color conversion. You'll
probably want to use this flag if your image contains an alpha channel.
Configuration Presets
--prman
Use PRMan-safe settings for tile size, planarconfig, and metadata.
--oiio Use OIIO-optimized settings for tile size, planarconfig, metadata.
