- XtoPS is an X Window System window dumping utility. XtoPS reads an
- image from any visible window on an X server and outputs it to
- encapsulated Postscript file. You can view this file with any
- Postscript compatible viewer or printer. The image is displayed in
- color on viewers or printers that support color Postscript,
- otherwise it is displayed as grayscale. The target window can be
- specified by id or name or be selected by clicking the mouse in the
- desired window. The keyboard bell is rung once at the beginning of
- the dump and twice when the dump is completed.

- In addition to XtoPS, ImageMagick, an X11 image processing and
- display utility is available on expo.lcs.mit.edu as
- contrib/ImageMagick.tar.Z. Included are these programs:
-
- Display
-
- Display is a machine architecture independent image processing and
- display program. It can display any image in the MIFF format on
- any workstation display running an X server. Display first
- determines the hardware capabilities of the workstation. If the
- number of unique colors in the image is less than or equal to the
- number the workstation can support, the image is displayed in an X
- window. Otherwise the number of colors in the image is first
- reduced to match the color resolution of the workstation before it
- is displayed.
-
- This means that a continuous-tone 24 bits/pixel image can display
- on a 8 bit pseudo-color device or monochrome device. In most
- instances the reduced color image closely resembles the original.
- Alternatively, a monochrome or pseudo-color image can display on a
- continuous-tone 24 bits/pixels device.
-
- Import
-
- Import is an X Window System window dumping utility. Import allows
- X users to store window images in a specially formatted dump file.
- This file can then be read by the Display utility for redisplay,
- printing, editing, formatting, archiving, image processing, etc.
- The target window can be specified by id or name or be selected by
- clicking the mouse in the desired window. The keyboard bell is
- rung once at the beginning of the dump and twice when the dump is
- completed.
