Please send me the information about it If you know of a program |>that converts the SUN/gif to color postscripts. Several possibilities: A commercial program IslandDraw from Islnad Graphics will import GIF files and can output to a PostSCript printer and file. Two public domain programs - pbmplus and xv - are available at export.lcs.mit.edu. pbmplus is a large collection of image transformation filters. It compiles on most UNIX systems. xv is an image viewer that can input in many formats; do interactive editing such as cropping and color translations; and save in a different format. A very nice program but you need an X Windows environment to build it. - Bob Haar ps - you might look at the FAQ posting in alt.binaries.pictures.d for for information. --- Robert Haar InterNet : rhaar@gmr.com Computer Science Dept., G.M.
