36 .SH DESCRIPTION
37 .I Ra_pr
38 converts between RADIANCE and pixrect rasterfile formats.
39 In the default mode, a RADIANCE picture is converted to a pixrect
40 rasterfile of the same horizontal and vertical dimensions with
41 8-bits per pixel.
42 The
43 .I \-d
44 option turns off dithering.
45 The
46 .I \-b
47 option converts the image to black and white, for improved quality
48 on greyscale monitors.
49 Only with this option can the input be taken from stdin.
50 The
51 .I \-c
52 option allows fewer than 256 colors.
53 The
54 .I \-g
55 option specifies the exponent used in gamma correction;
56 the default value is 2.2.
57 An exponent of 1.0 turns gamma correction off.
58 The
59 .I \-e
60 option specifies an exposure compensation in f-stops (powers of two).
61 Only integer stops are allowed, for efficiency.
62 The
63 .I \-r
64 option invokes a reverse conversion, from a pixrect rasterfile to
65 a RADIANCE picture.
66 If the output file is missing, the standard output is used.
