Try Jef Poskanzer's "pbm" program, which I believe you can get by anonymous ftp from expo.lcs.mit.edu. It will take a monochrome bitmap in tiff or any of a wide variety of other formats and convert to its own format, then it can convert from its format to many others (including sun rasterfile, which you'll want). Unsolicited testimonial-- I've used it to scan pictures in on a Mac, then send them to my Sun, edit with "touchup," then include them in troff documents, works beautifully. "pbm" compiled and ran the first time, it's a very nice job, elegant and simple. Rob Jacob NET: jacob@itd.nrl.navy.mil SNAIL: Code 5530, Naval Research Lab, Washington, D.C. 20375
