NAME


pnmrotate - rotate a portable anymap by some angle

SYNOPSIS


pnmrotate [-noantialias] angle [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION


Reads a portable anymap as input. Rotates it by the specified angle and produces a
portable anymap as output. If the input file is in color, the output will be too,
otherwise it will be grayscale. The angle is in degrees (floating point), measured
counter-clockwise. It can be negative, but it should be between -90 and 90. Also, for
rotations greater than 45 degrees you may get better results if you first use pnmflip to
do a 90 degree rotation and then pnmrotate less than 45 degrees back the other direction

The rotation algorithm is Alan Paeth's three-shear method. Each shear is implemented by
looping over the source pixels and distributing fractions to each of the destination
pixels. This has an "anti-aliasing" effect - it avoids jagged edges and similar
artifacts. However, it also means that the original colors or gray levels in the image
are modified. If you need to keep precisely the same set of colors, you can use the
-noantialias flag. This does the shearing by moving pixels without changing their values.
If you want anti-aliasing and don't care about the precise colors, but still need a
limited *number* of colors, you can run the result through ppmquant.

All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
