ppmtopjxl {{path/to/image.ppm}} > {{path/to/output.pjxl}}

Resize the input image:

ppmtopjxl {{[-xsi|-xsize]}} {{10cm}} {{[-ysi|-ysize]}} {{5cm}} {{path/to/image.ppm}} > {{path/to/output.pjxl}}

Shift the input image:

ppmtopjxl {{[-xsh|-xshift]}} {{10pt}} {{[-ysh|-yshift]}} {{5pt}} {{path/to/image.ppm}} > {{path/to/output.pjxl}}
