PCT2RGB(1)			      GDAL			      PCT2RGB(1)

NAME
     pct2rgb - Convert an 8bit paletted image to 24bit RGB.

SYNOPSIS
	pct2rgb [--help] [--help-general]
		   [-of format] [-b band] [-rgba] [-pct palette_file] <source_file> <dest_file>

DESCRIPTION
     This  utility  will  convert  a pseudo-color band on the input file into an
     output RGB file of the desired format.

     NOTE:
	pct2rgb is a Python utility, and is only available if GDAL Python  bind-
	ings are available.

     --help
	    Show this help message and exit

     --help-general
	    Gives a brief usage message for the generic GDAL commandline options
	    and exit.

     -of <format>
	    Select  the  output  format. If not specified, the format is guessed
	    from the extension.  Use the short format name.

     -b <band>
	    Band to convert to RGB, defaults to 1.

     -rgba  Generate a RGBA file (instead of a RGB file by default).

     -pct <palette_file>
	    Extract the color table from <palette_file> instead  of  getting  it
	    from  <source_file>.   Can	be used to have a consistent color table
	    for multiple files.  The <palette_file> must be either a raster file
	    in a GDAL supported format with a palette or a color file in a  sup-
	    ported format (txt, qml, qlr).

     <source_file>
	    The input file.

     <dest_file>
	    The output RGB file that will be created.

     The '-expand rgb|rgba' option of gdal_translate obsoletes that utility.

RETURN STATUS CODE
     The  program returns status code 0 in case of success, and non-zero in case
     of error (non-blocking errors emitted as warnings are considered as a  suc-
     cessful execution).
