Name
pnmmargin - add borders to a PNM image
Notes
pnmpad does essentially the same thing, but gives you more control over the individual margins and does
only black and white margins.
To remove a border of a specified size from an image, usepamcut. pnmcrop also removes borders, but
determines by itself what is border and what is subject.
If you want to make the image a certain required size, adding borders or cropping as necessary, pamcut
may be what you want.
Options
In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (most notably -plain, see Common
Options ), pnmmargin recognizes the following command line options:
You can specify the border color with the -white, -black, and -color options. If you don't specify a
color, the program makes a guess.
The value of -color is like the argument of the pnm_parsecolor() library routine .
The -plain common option was implemented beginning with Netpbm version 10.40 (September 2007).
The -quiet common option is not implemented.
