- Convert a PAM image to a TIFF image:

`pamtotiff {{path/to/input_file.pam}} > {{path/to/output_file.tiff}}`

- Explicitly specify a compression method for the output file:

`pamtotiff -{{none|packbits|lzw|g3|g4|flate|adobeflate}} {{path/to/input_file.pam}} > {{path/to/output_file.tiff}}`

- Always produce a color TIFF image, even if the input image is greyscale:

`pamtotiff -color {{path/to/input_file.pam}} > {{path/to/output_file.tiff}}`
