TBG(tm)
Tiff Bilevel/Grayscale to TIFF/GIF Bilevel/Grayscale Converter
Copyright (C) 1990 Offe Enterprises. All rights reserved.
Converts a bilevel (black and white) or grayscale TIFF image to a
same or lower resolution bilevel/grayscale image in TIFF or GIF format.
EXAMPLE USES
1. Convert a scanned image in TIFF format (these are usually
black and white images that have a large number of
horizontal and vertical pixels) to a smaller image
with grayscales so that the image can be viewed more
completely on a VGA/EGA screen. The grayscales compensate
for the loss of resolution caused when the image is
reduced to a smaller size.
2. Convert a bilevel/grayscale TIFF file to a GIF file.
3. Reduce the filesize of TIFF files by scaling the image.
The program can be executed non-interactively (for example, from a batch file.
A demo version this program is available on many BBSes.
SYNTAX: tbg [options] inputfile outputfile
OPTIONS:
-otiff output file in TIFF format.
-ogif output file in GIF format.
-xn where n=1,2,3,etc. Reduce the width by this factor.
Example: -x2 reduces the width to half its value.
-yn where n=1,2,3,etc. Reduce the height by this factor.
Example: -y4 reduces the height to a quarter of its value.
-bn where n=1 to 8. Set the number of bits per pixel in the output to n.
If a lower number is sufficient, the lower number is used (also see the
-f option). The maximum possible gray levels in the output is 2 to the
power of this number. Example: -b4 sets the # bits/pixel to 4.
-f force the number of bits/pixel to the value specified by the -b option
-q quiet. Do not display input/output image information
EXAMPLE: tbg -x4 -y4 -b2 input.tif output.tif
tbg -ogif input.tif output.gif

SCRtoPS(tm) - Screen-to-PostScript
PRINT PC SCREENS TO POSTSCRIPT PRINTER OR CAPTURE TO ENCAPSULATED
POSTSCRIPT FILE FOR INCORPORATION INTO DOCUMENTS
for IBM PC + Adobe PostScript Printers and Compatibles
Performs screen captures directly into PostScript by pressing Shift-PrintScreen.
Use to include screen snapshots in your documents (including line/box/upper
ASCII characters) or to print from software that does not support postscript.
Supports Text and graphics modes including IBM character graphics on CGA, EGA,
VGA and some SuperVGA. Text modes use the Courier font for standard ASCII
characters.
Send postscript output to LPT1/LPT2/LPT3 ports, COM1/COM2 ports or disk files.
Send to postscript printer directly or import file into Desk-Top Publishing
packages like Ventura Publisher/ WordPerfect for use with PostScript printers.
Supports color to greyscale conversion on EGA/ VGA/SuperVGA and xon/xoff on
com ports
Uses minimal memory - less than 10K when resident - can be removed from memory.
Graphics cursor indicates progress, screen capture can be aborted
User selectable landscape/portrait mode, x, y sizes, and <ctrl>-d at end-of-job
Built-in help facility
(A new program is also available that will post-process TEXT screens
captured using SCRtoPS(tm) so that foreground/background color information
can be translated to different foreground thicknesses and background gray
shades on the printout)
