- Someone in our office just went through a process to end up with a PCX file.
- He used Ghostscript's pstoppm script and them pbmplus' ppmtopcx program with
- very good results. I believe he had to change the pstoppm from 72 dbi to
- 300 dpi. If you need more info, let me know and I'll track down the exact

- days and posts may expire before I get back to them.
