[comp.graphics] tiff,pict->raster

royf@pwcs.UUCP (Roy Forsstrom) (06/22/89)

My next project is a aerial photograph server for our workstations.
Does anyone know of a conversion program to accomplish any of the 
following?

	tiff -> sun raster
	tiff -> pbm
	pict -> pbm
	pict -> sun raster

Thanks,

Paul Emerson contributed a tifftopbm to the PBM package in December
1988, so it's in the FTPable version but not in the most recent Usenet
version (31oct88).  The Fuzzy Pixmap package, just posted to
comp.sources.unix, has some hooks for TIFF but does not support it
yet.

A PICT reader will probably be in the next release of PBM.  I am not aware
of any currently-available PICT conversion programs.
