## NAME
       pnmscale - replaced by pamscale


## DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of [**Netpbm**(1)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/Netpbm/1/markdown).

       **pnmscale **was obsoleted by [**pamscale**(1)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/pamscale/1/markdown), introduced with Netpbm 10.20 (January 2004).  **pamscale**
       is  backward  compatible  with  **pnmscale**,  plus adds many additional functions, including the
       ability to process PAM images.

       **pnmscale **remained in the Netpbm package until Netpbm 10.46 (March 2009) because of hopes that
       it had fewer bugs than **pamscale **because of its age.  But now it would just be clutter.

       In Netpbm before 10.20, use the manual for **pamscale **with **pnmscale**.  Features that are in **pam‐**
       **scale **but not **pnmscale **are indicated by statements that they didn't exist before 10.20.
