- I am not quite sure what you mean by 'enlarge'. The IFF is a pixel for
- pixel reproduction (1728 x hhh). You will have to use some other program
- to manipulate the images in IFF ILBM format.
-
- You could hack the IFF header and change the BMHD chunk's PAGE_WIDTH and
- PAGE_HEIGHT fields to the same values as the WIDTH and HEIGHT - if that's
- what you mean.
