Well, I have a stupid way to do this. It works on my machine although it
needs two programs instead one:

	1. Set up the printer in QPRO to HP Laserjet, print your graphics
	   to file.
	2. Use pcltomsp.exe that comes with EMTEX to transfer the PCL file
	   to PCX or MSP format.
	3. Use Paint Shop Pro or other graphics programs to read in the PCX
           or MSP file and save as TIFF file.

Hope this helps.

This is the correction to my last posting. In QPRO, don't select
HP LaserJet. Select LaserJet plus or II with additional RAM. There
you can find different types of resolution. Select the one that
suits your purpose. If you select LaserJet, pcltomsp.exe won't
work.

Print|Graph Print|Write Graph File [PCX file]
Then use your favorite image/bitmap program to convert into the format you
need.  (Ask in alt.graphics.pixutils for more info, but I've bought a program
called Image Alchemy which converts from anything to anything.)  There are
many programs that will convert to TIFF available via ftp.  Upgrade to Quattro
Pro for Windows and you can use that to do the conversion.
