GRAP2GRAPH(1) General Commands Manual GRAP2GRAPH(1)
NAME
grap2graph - convert a GRAP diagram into a cropped image
SYNOPSIS
grap2graph [-unsafe] [-format output-format] [convert-arguments]
grap2graph --help
grap2graph -v
grap2graph --version
DESCRIPTION
grap2graph reads a grap(1) program from the standard input and writes an image file, by
default in Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format, to the standard output.
The input GRAP code should not be wrapped with the .G1 and .G2 macros that normally guard
it within groff(1) documents.
Arguments not recognized by grap2graph are passed to the ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick
program convert(1). By specifying these, you can give your image a border, set the im-
age's pixel density, or perform other useful transformations.
The output image is clipped using convert's -trim option to the smallest possible bounding
box that contains all the black pixels.
OPTIONS
-format output-format
Write the image in output-format, which must be understood by convert; the default
is PNG.
--help Display a usage message and exit.
-unsafe
Run groff in unsafe mode, enabling the PIC command sh to execute arbitrary Unix
shell commands. The groff default is to forbid this.
-v
--version
Display version information and exit.
ENVIRONMENT
