NAME

       pnmmargin - add borders to a PNM image

SYNOPSIS

       pnmmargin [-white|-black|-color colorspec] size [pnmfile]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pnmmargin adds a border around a PNM image.

ARGUMENTS

       pnmfile  is  the  name  of the input file.  If you don't specify this argument, pnmmargin reads the input
       image from its Standard Input.

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.

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.
