Re: [AutoTrace] suggested format for autotrace commands?

You also need to replace "FFFFFF" with the Hexadecimal RGB numbers for the background color you want to use.

`[', `]' and '<' and `>' are special characters.

Do like:

autotrace --background-color=FFFFFF --input-format=BMP --output-file=C:\\foo.hpgl --output-format=hpgl

or

autotrace --background-color=FFFFFF --input-format=BMP --output-format=hpgl > C:\\foo.hpgl

I'm not using DOS or Windows. So I'm afraid `C:\\foo.hpgl' is wrong. If you get an error with
above command line, use C:\foo.hpgl instead.

Thanks Tom and Masatake, this makes a lot of sense. Just 3 thoughts before I try this; 1) I have assumed I should specify the file I want to convert (r.bmp)...
