We would like to convert some of the (demo) images which came with NeWS
into rasterfile format (so they can be displayed using things like
screenload or serve as a background for suntools).

We have tried the obvious route of loading the image in under NeWS and
then doing a screendump.  However, that leaves us with a window border
around the image.

Any ideas on how to get the rasterfile image without the border?  Any
pointers on other ways of converting the postscript to rasterfile?  Any
standard SUN utilities we're overlooking?  Any PD software available to
perform the task?  Input welcome on any of these questions.

[[ There's one that goes the other way:  rasterfile to PostScript.  An
alternative is to get "dumpregion" from the Sun-Spots archives and use
that to make a rasterfile of a selected region of the screen.  That way
you can get rid of the border.  "dumpregion.c" and "dumpregion.diff" are
both in the archives under "sun-source".  They can be retrieved via
anonymous FTP from the host "titan.rice.edu" or via the archive server.
For more information about the archive server, send a mail message
containing the word "help" to the address "archive-server@rice.edu".
