Hello there NetBoys, Is there anyone who has a SIXEL to PostScript converter script/program/Fortran-source/.. running on VAX-VMS If there is someone on the net with such a beast, please E-mail to : peterV%ecn.uucp@nluug.nl or SURFNET: ETI001::PETER or EARN/BITNET: ESU0122@HPEENRR51 Greetings from: Marcel Bernards, UNIX & Net sysadm Netherlands Energy Research Foundation ECN P.O.

If you have trouble with not having a C compiler, please send me an email; I could try to compile it for you. Another request that I have posted before. Does anybody else have anything that does the inverse? I want to convert either a dvi file (the output from TeX, LaTeX) to Sixels, or, a Postscript file to Sixels. Doesn't anybody in the whole wide world ever have had a need for this before :-? The previous responses that I got is that it is not too difficult to change Nelson Beebe's device drivers to achieve this. Unfortunately, I have absolutely no clue as to how to go about achieving this. -- Ravi. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ravindran Ramachandran Internet : rr@sun2.cs.uh.edu | System Administrator : rr@csv1.cs.uh.edu | TCSUH, 617 SR1 CSNET : rr@houston.edu | University of Houston BITNET : coschmd@uhvax1.bitnet | 4800, Calhoun | Houston, TX - 77204. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer : The opinions mentioned here are purely my own (most of the time); however, sometimes my opinions are not THAT pure.

PostScript to anything is very difficult. It is a very complex page description language. Also, you would need to have the font description information (which, of course will cost an arm and a leg from Adobe, if you can get it at all). Of course, you could always do a small subset of it... John Hascall
