- .TH GRAP2GRAPH @MAN1EXT@ "@MDATE@" "Groff Version @VERSION@"
- .IX grap2graph
- .SH NAME
- grap2graph \- convert a grap diagram into a cropped bitmap image
- .
- .
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .B grap2graph
- [
- .B \-unsafe
- ]
- [
- .BI \-resolution\ M\fR|\fPMxN
- ]
- [
- .BI \-format\ fmt
- ]
- .
- .
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- Reads a grap program as input; produces an image file (by default in
- Portable Network Graphics format) suitable for the Web as output.
- For a description of the grap language, see
- .BR grap (1).
- .P
- Your graph specification should \fInot\fR be wrapped with the \&.G1 and
- \&.G2 macros that normally guard it within
- .BR groff (@MAN1EXT@)
- macros.
- .P
- The output image will be a black-on-white graphic clipped to the
- smallest possible bounding box that contains all the black pixels.
- By specifying command-line options to be passed to
- .BR convert (1)
- you can give it a border, set the background transparent, set the
- image's pixel density, or perform other useful transformations.
- .P
- This program uses
- .BR grap (1),
- .BR @g@pic (@MAN1EXT@),
- .BR groff (@MAN1EXT@),
- and the ImageMagick
- .BR convert (1)
- program.
- These programs must be installed on your system and accessible on your
- $PATH for \fBgrap2graph\fR to work.
- .
- .
- .SH OPTIONS
- .TP
- .B \-unsafe
- Run
- .BR @g@pic (@MAN1EXT@)
- and
- .BR groff (@MAN1EXT@)
- in the `unsafe' mode enabling the PIC macro
- .B sh
- to execute arbitrary commands.
- The default is to forbid this.
- .TP
- .BI \-format\ fmt
- Specify an output format; the default is PNG (Portable Network Graphics).
- Any format that
- .BR convert (1)
- can emit is supported.
- .PP
- Command-line switches and arguments not listed above are passed to
- .BR convert (1).
- .
- .
- .SH ENVIRONMENT
- .TP
- .B GROFF_TMPDIR
- The directory in which temporary files will be created.
- If this is not set
- .B grap2graph
- searches the environment variables
- .BR \%TMPDIR ,
- .BR TMP ,
- and
- .B TEMP
- (in that order).
- Otherwise, temporary files will be created in
- .BR /tmp .
