The next two utility commands, g3chop and g3combin, permit 

cutting and pasting of fax images at the command line. These two 

commands are most commonly used to create letterhead and 

signature files.

Removes portions of Brooktrout Group 3 fax files and stores them in 

a separate file. 

Where:

For example:

skips the first five lines of the file salute.301, chops the next 20 lines, 

and puts them into the output file advert.301. 

-s

(start chop) Specifies the distance in 1/10" units, from 

the top of the file, to skip before chopping.

-c

(chop size) Specifies the distance in 1/10" units to chop.

-ifile1.301

(input file) Specifies the name of the file to chop.

-ofile2.301

(output file) Specifies the name of the output file which 

contains the resulting chopped file.

-l

(lines) Changes the -s and -c arguments to work with 

G3 lines as the units.
The number of lines are calculated in inches using the 

file resolution if you know how far down in inches you 

want to start and you use the -l argument: to skip 2 

inches from the top of the file in normal resolution, skip 

200 lines; for fine resolution, skip 400 lines.
The number of lines to chop can also be calculated based 

on the file resolution and the number of inches to remove 

from the file.
