 Command Line Usage
 -----
 ```sh
-Usage: cramcli input_dir output_dir atlas_name [--padding padding_value] [--notrim] [--dimension max_dimension]
+Usage: cramcli input_dir output_dir atlas_name [--padding padding_value] [--premultiply] [--notrim] [--dimension max_dimension]
 ```
 
 Cram CLI expects input images to be in PNG format and will output a PNG and a JSON metadata file that you can use to properly display the images in your game. Cram will recursively walk all the subdirectories of `input_dir` to generate your texture atlas.
 
 Padding is set to 0 by default. If you need to use linear filtering, set padding to at least 1. If you need to use texture compression, set padding to at least 4.
 
+Premultiply is off by default. If you will be using linear filtering on these images, you should turn this on or you will get strange artifacts.
+
 Trimming is on by default. Use `--notrim` if for some weird reason you want it off.
 
 Max dimension value is set to 8192 by default since that is a common max texture size for basically every GPU out there. Use `--dimension [max_dimension]` to override this maximum.
