36 .SH DESCRIPTION
37 .I Ra_t16
38 converts between RADIANCE and Targa 16-bit or 24-bit RGB image files
39 (type 2 in Targa's documentation).
40 In the default mode, a RADIANCE picture is converted to an
41 RGB file of the same horizontal and vertical dimensions with
42 16-bits per pixel.
43 The
44 .I \-3
45 option tells the program to produce a 24-bit image file instead.
46 The
47 .I \-g
48 option specifies the exponent used in gamma correction;
49 the default value is 2.2.
50 An exponent of 1.0 turns gamma correction off.
51 The
52 .I \-e
53 option specifies an exposure compensation in f-stops (powers of two).
54 Only integer stops are allowed, for efficiency.
55 The
56 .I \-r
57 option invokes a reverse conversion, from a 16-bit or 24-bit
58 Targa file to a RADIANCE picture.
59 The determination of depth is made automatically on reverse
60 translation, so the
61 .I \-2
62 and
63 .I \-3
64 options are not necessary.
65 If the output file is missing, the standard output is used.

70 program.
