We here at the Wisconsin State Lab of Hygeine are trying to convert our logo
to a binary file so that it can be saved as a permanent macro in an HP
LaserJet Series II printer. We are using an Eyescan optical scanner to read
the image off of a photocopy. Everything is going smooth, except that we
are not able to save the image file as a generic binary file. Anyone know
how this is done? We are familiar with the "Convert" program which is run
as a outside program from Eyescan, but we do not know what conversion to use
to produce a generic binary file. It seems like an easy concept (one bit plane
translates very nicely into a binary data image file), but we cannot figure
out how to do it.
When we get the binary image file, I assume all that needs to be done is to
send the appropriate commands to the LaserJet and then send the graphics data
one "line" at a time with the correct command, and then clean up with some
ending commands (I've done something like this before). But we need that
binary data image file. All suggestions and help is highly appreciated!
