- TGA to TIFF file conversion program

-
- TGA2TIF is a file conversion program that converts targa (.TGA) files
- to tiff (.TIF) files. The converted TIFF file can then be read by
- popular DeskTop Publishing packages, such as PageMaker.
-
- The Targa files must be 16 bit color (targa16) and type 2 format. This
- includes most files created from the True Vision Targa 16 board and
- the Everex Vision 16 boards. Although not tested, it should work on
- files created from the True Vision Vista board configured to 16 bit
- color.
-
- Note: files created from Lumena16, ColorScheme I, ColorScheme II,
- as well as others follow the targa type 2 format and can be
- converted. Use the DOS REName command to rename the file from
- the .PIX extension to the .TGA extension.
-
-
- Usage: tga2tif [/m] [\path\]fname[.tga]
-
- /m = mirror left to right
- /? = display syntax
-
- This will convert the .TGA file in the path specified to a TIFF
- file in the current path.
-
- The mirror switch (/m) has found to be needed for files created
- from the Vision 16 board.
-
- Conversion time will take less than 2 minutes for a 500k file
- (depending on system and disk speed).
