        I'm looking for information on the SIGHT graphics format, used
by CalComp's Samurai DX slidemaker for the IBM PC.  Its documentation
claims that it uses the NAPLPS standard, which I gather is ANSI-approved.
I'd like to get a document on the nuts and bolts of NAPLPS and SIGHT,
perhaps from ANSI?
        What I am trying to do: translate graphics produced by the AT&T
TrueVision 16 board into SIGHT format so that I can make slides of them.
Being able to translate other formats, for instance PostScript, IFF,
and GIFF, would also be useful.
        If you can give me any leads, I'd appreciate it.  Please reply
by e-mail, as I am posting to groups I don't usually read.
