Hijaak Graphics Conversion and Capture (igf)
Program
HIJAAK -- Hijaak Graphics Conversion and Capture
Relevant Software
HIJAAK is a retail (i.e., "commercial") program for converting among
various graphical file formats and for capturing screen images. It's
very good at what it does. HIJAAK is available from most retail
software outlets (discounted) or from its manufacturer:
Inset Systems Voice: (203) 740-2400
71 Commerce Drive FAX: (204) 775-5634
Brookfield, CT 06804
How to Use This Program with InContext
Before you can use Hijaak effectively, you must not only install it,
but also get it set up so it understands how you want various trans-
lations to be done. For example, if you translate .GEM files to .CGM,
you'll need to make sure Hijaak does that particular translation in
the way you prefer.
Once this setup is done, you can set up actions for the source
class(es), with a form like this (this example assumes that the
Hijaak installation directory is on your path):
Convert;Convert using Hijaak
!query 1 "Convert to what file type?" 3
hj %f %p.%1
If you want to do screen captures, you'll also want to install the
action list for the IGF class. This is the "Inset Graphical Format"
used by Hijaak itself. The easiest way to do most screen capturing is
to use the "Quick Capture" feature, which generates an IGF file, and
to convert it later, as desired. A simple action definition file
(IGF.ACT) is included with this note.

Finally, if you want to be able to do screen captures from a variety
of applications, you might want to add an action definition like this
for EXE and COM classes:
Scrn-cap;Run with Hijaak, capture scrns
loadrpm
%f
freerpm
