NAME

       ppmtoexr - convert a PPM image to OpenEXR format

SYNOPSIS

       ppmtoexr input.ppm output.exr

DESCRIPTION

       Converts a PPM file to an EXR file in [0,1].  If the input is 8 bit per
       channel, the input is gamma corrected according to  the  PPM  standard.
       Images  which  are  16  bit  per  pixel are treated as linear intensity
       values.

       This program works with the 48 bit per pixel PPM files  output  by  the
       dcraw  program  for  converting  from  raw  pixel formats found on many
       digital cameras.
