This message recently came through my newsgroup (comp.sys.sun) and I am 
reposting it here since I think y'all might know more about this than I.
Please reply directly to ISSHSH@NUSVM.BITNET not to the net 'cause he
does not have news access and not to me 'cause it's not my question :).

Thanks,

Please redirect this mail to someone who would know how to convert a MAC
PICT graphics file to any IBM graphics file format.

I am using MAC MACDRAW II and would like to know how to convert the MAC
pict file to an IBM format.  If you have any source codes or if you know
someone who could help me, please refer me to them.  I would greatly
appreciate if you have any source codes in C that would permit me to
alleviate my problems.

Also, is there any possible ways to capture an MAC file into postscript?
I think this would be easier on my part to transfer the file to the IBM.
I know there are some source codes like ppmtogif, ppmtopbm, etc.. but is
there one to convert a MAC PICT to any IBM format?

I would greatly appreciate if you could reply as soon as possible.


Thank you very much for your help!
