Does anybody know the whereabouts of a program that will convert TIFF files to other Mac graphics formats? We are using an HP ScanJet Plus with some software that saves the scanned images in TIFF format only, but none of our graphics software will read TIFF. We need to edit the images, but cannot. It would help if the software would keep as high a resolution as possible; some of our images are very detailed and fine. Please E-Mail me and I will summarize to the net. Thanks in advance! /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /*Charles R. (C. R.)

We are Studio/8 and Pixelpaint will read TIFF documents and will output in PICT, MacPaint and StartupScreen, among others. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= = John DeRosa, Motorola, Inc, Cellular Infrastructure Division = = e-mail: ...uunet!motcid!derosaj = = I do not hold by employer responsible for any information in this message = = nor am I responsible for anything my employer may do or say. = =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

A less expensive soultion would be 'Color Squeeze' by Kodak. The program reads TIFF, PICT, and a proprietary format that supports visualy lossles compression up to 70:1. The program writes all of these formats too. The only problem is that while the program is anounced, it is not available outside of beta test until the MacWorld Conference. Pete Hoch
