[comp.graphics] GIF->TIFF formatter needed

rrw@naucse.UUCP (Robert Wier) (09/27/89)

 Please forgive if this is one of those "been asked a thousand times
 questions".  I am seriously in need of a program that will convert
 GIF format files (such as the recently available hurrican HUGO
 satellite images) to TIFF format.

 I could use anything running under Ultrix, MSDOS, or on a MAC.
 I can't ftp, but can reach things through bitnet or UUCP.

 Please E-Mail or post here.

 MANY THANKS!

The best Mac program for analyzing, editing, and converting GIF, TIFF,
and PICT files is Image by Wayne Rasband of NIMH -- not to be confused
with the NCSA ImageTool program. Both the program and the full source
code are available on SUMEX-AIM.STANFORD.EDU, in /info-mac. The
current version is 1.16:
