Package: netpbm
Version: 2:9.25-9.backports.org.1
Severity: normal

The man page for pnmtops says that the  -nocenter  option puts the image
in the upper left corner of the page.  Actually, it puts it in the *lower*
left corner.

I assume this error arose from the difference in where the origin of
coordinates is for PS and PNM files.  For PostScript, the origin is in
the lower left corner; for netpbm images, the origin is at the upper
left corner.

This now reads
 ‐nocenter
             By default, pnmtops centers the image on the output page.
             You can cause pnmtops to instead put the image against the
             lower left corner of the page with the ‐nocenter
