PIXSHRINK(1) BRL-CAD PIXSHRINK(1)

pixshrink - shrink a color pix file

pixshrink [-s squareinsize] [-w in_width] [-n in_height] [-f shrink_factor] [-u] [infile.pix] > outfile.pix

pixshrink will take a color pix(5) format file of given dimensions and produce a smaller scaled version. The -w and -n flags specify the input file width and number of scan lines in pixels. They can both be set to the same value via -s. Defaults of 512 are assumed for unspecified dimensions. The integer scaling factor (shrink_factor) is set with the -f flag. By default, the factor is 2. Thus, pixshrink forms the logical opposite of the pixinterp2x (1) program.

The program reads the entire image into memory, and then scales the image down to 1/shrink_factor the original size in both dimensions.

By default, pixshrink uses boxcar averaging to produce the output pixels from the input. The -u option causes pixshrink to use image undersampling instead.

If the dimensions of the input image are not evenly divisible by the shrink factor, incorrect and bizarre output is generated.
