# pbmreduce > Proportionally reduce a PBM image. > See also: `pamenlarge`, `pamditherbw`. > More information: . - Reduce the specified image by the specified factor: `pbmreduce {{n}} {{path/to/image.pbm}} > {{path/to/output.pbm}}` - Use simple thresholding when reducing: `pbmreduce {{[-t|-threshold]}} {{n}} {{path/to/image.pbm}} > {{path/to/output.pbm}}` - Use the specified threshold for all quantizations: `pbmreduce {{[-va|-value]}} {{0.6}} {{n}} {{path/to/image.pbm}} > {{path/to/output.pbm}}`
