.. class:: infomark

**What it does**

This tool converts DNA sequence into a PNG image by representing each base with one colored pixel.

-----

.. class:: infomark

**Input Format**

The input sequence can be in FASTA format or a plain text file containing only the sequence. Any non-ATGC characters (case-insensitive) will be skipped. In a FASTA file with multiple sequences, all sequences will be used.
