Howdy.

This  will  probably  seem  like a  really  stupid question,   but I'd
appreciate someone patronizing me  and emailing an  answer. I  will be
glad to summarize.


As one might  expect from  a Medical Systems  group,  we get a lot  of
images    of  brains and  things  that  we  would like   to  put  into
presentations (preferrably slides).  We can  probably get these images
in Sun 8-bit raster format, and  maybe  TIFF.  I am looking  for three
things: 

1.  A way to convert  Sun8 files into say PICT2  or something else Mac
presentation software can read.

2.   A recommendation for  presentation  software that  will  read the
results of #1 plus TIFF files + anything  else you  can think of (only
the Lord knows all the formats we may have to deal with).

3.    A  recommendation  for  a   film  recorder  which   will work as
transparently as possible with #2 (non-computer people will be working
with this and I don't have time to play consultant all the  time :^) A
Chooser-level driver would be preferrable.

4.  TIFF, GIFF  and PICT2 format  specs.   I don't have FTP access  to
other sites so I am really relying on the  good nature of those around
me.  I realize that  these files also require  a clut, so I would need
specs on how to generate one when translating a foreign file type.

I really,really,really,really,really,really,really appreciate this.

Thanks in advance
