- Today I was presented with the challenge of converting some files in
- Word Perfect Graphics format (obtained with a screen capture program
- shipped with recent versions of MS-DOS Word Perfect) to a form where
- I could use xv for colour editing and printing on an RS/6000 AIX 3.2
- system. I succeeded through a circuitous route using MacLink+
- on a Mac, which has a WPG to PICT converter. Are there any free UNIX
- utilities to convert from WPG to any common raster-based formats
- (gif, tiff, pnm ...?)? Thanks.
