[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Help needed on Scanner Image Formats

pete@wlbr.EATON.COM (Pete Lyall) (10/12/88)

I'd also appreciate some help with the hand scanner file conversion
process - a friend recently picked one up, and need to convert from
the hand scanner format ('TIF' or 'TIFF'?) to GIF - anyone know
of such a tool?

Pete

There is a commercial program from INSET systems called HIJAAK. It is
a screen snapshot program that also will convert many formats including
GIF and TIF in either direction. It works quite well. I think you can
mail order it for aprox. $90  
It also handles files from most of the Paint programs, GEM, MAC etc.
