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 details. Best to email me with questions as I'll be out of town for a few days and posts may expire before I get back to them. ---Paul _______________________________________________________________ _________ Paul Halsema \\ AT&T: (407) 729-3536 | _ _ | Harris Corp., GASD \\ INTERNET: |_| |_| | | MS 102-4827 PO Box 94000 \\ phalsema@x102a.ess.harris.com |_/\/\/\|_| Melbourne, FL 32902 \\ | |_| |_| | _______________________________________________________________ |_________|
