BBOX(1) BBOX(1) NAME bbox - prints out the bounding box of a rawppm or rawpbm image SYNOPSIS bbox [ -l ] [ -r ] [ -h ] [ -V ] [ rawpbmfile ] DESCRIPTION bbox reads a rawppm or rawpbm file and prints out the bounding box of the image (as postscript comment and in postscript points, i.e. 1/72dpi) as well as the high resolution bounding box. Input is read from standard input if no filename is specified. Example output: %%BoundingBox: 12 253 829 837 %%HiResBoundingBox: 12.500000 253.000000 828.500000 837.00000 bbox has only very limited memory requirements as it reads the input line by line and thus needs to store only one picture line in memory. OPTIONS -h | --help Show summary of options. -V Show version of program. -r resolution of picture in dpi -l loose bounding box (integer bounding box is expanded by 1 point, hires bounding box is expanded by 0.5 points) SEE ALSO ps2eps (1) AUTHOR bbox was written by Roland Bless. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Special thanks goes to Michael Sharpe from UCSD who suggested a lot of im- provements for bbox to become more precise and robust, especially for small drawings. An earlier version of this manual page was originally written by Rafael Laboissiere <rafael@debian.org> for the Debian system. Thank you Rafael!

BUGS Though the code is quite small and the probability for bugs is now small, there may be some left somewhere between the lines.
