If the greyscale image you created is named "hills.pgm" and
you want the LDraw file to be named "hills.dat" (and you are
in the right directory) you just run the command:

  pgmtoldr < hills.pgm > hills.dat

If you want to set the colour of the landscape to green
(LDraw colour number 2) you run the command:

  pgmtoldr -colour 2 < hills.pgm > hills.dat

If you also want to scale the landscape so it is exactly
21 plates (7 bricks) tall the command is:

  pgmtoldr -colour 2 -height 21 < hills.pgm > hills.dat

You can also get the program to try to reduce the number of
bricks it uses to model the landscape:

  pgmtoldr -colour 2 -height 21 -minimal < hills.pgm > hills.dat

Also the image I made was 20 x 20 is the this 20 x 20 studs?

Yes.

Play well,

Jacob
