Does anyone have a utility to convert from IRIS image format to color postscript? Please forgive me if such a thing exists in 3.3 --- I am tired of putting my work on hold waiting for it to someday appear.... -- John D.

I've built a standalone version (3.3.1 executable) of an internal tool which converts a variety of image formats to PostScript. You can ftp it from: gauguin.Princeton.edu (128.112.224.1) login as "ftp" or "anonymous" use anything as a password set binary mode get pub/pix/px2ps Here's the man-page, such as it is: ------ usage: px2ps [options] imgfile Convert image to an Adobe Encapsulated PostScript(tm) page description. Currently handled input formats: TIFF,SGI,Sun,ALS,HDF,GWH (at Princeton: GIF,Xwd,TGA, and .Z files) Note: Uses Level II 'colorimage' operator for RGB images. Even grayscale ('image' operator) EPS files are huge! Not all color PostScript printers handle images correctly. Options: -r ... rotate, i.e. landscape orientation -g ... force grayscale output, even for RGB data -C ... *don't* center, i.e. no offset from page origin -N ... invert (negate) intensity values -v ... be verbose about some conversion facts -s inches ... scale image rows to this length, (default = fill page) columns will be scaled proportionally default: fill 8.5x11 inch page -o file ... write PostScript output to file (can also redirect stdout) -P "cmd" ... send PostScript output thru this command -# copies ... embed a copy count in the PostScript output -G gamval ... gamma warp image, (0.0 < darker < 1.0 < brighter < 4.0) -4 ... reduce 8-bit samples to 4 (smaller files! for RGB too) -b cutoff ... force one-bit per pixel, bit-on = (data > cutoff) example: px2ps /local/images/elvis | lpr -h -Ppscolor ------ David Laur Princeton ICGL "I am resplendent in divergence" - D.Byrne dmlaur@gauguin.princeton.edu
