- Hello,
- Does anyone know of a way to convert a raster image created
- by a screendump on a sun (*.im8 file) to a postscript file? Also,
- does anyone know of a way to convert a gif image to postscript?

- Thank-you,

- For gif -> ps, xv does a good job, although the postscript files usually
- get quite large (>1MB) and sometimes that can cause problems when printing
- them. For im8 -> ps, I think that xv handles that too, but I'm not 100%
- sure.
