I just want to convert them into something more useful (jpg / tiff / svg). ImageMagick doesn't understand it, so i think this is the Packbits compressed .PICT filetype. neither Gimp or XV like them either. file doesn't identify the files either. Alternatively, any tool I can script under OSX to conver them to something useful? (FYI, 'Preview' under Tiger doens't recognise them either, but I can drag them just fine into an Omnigraffle Pro diagram). One of these files is at http://www.meijome.net/files/freebsd/image64.pict thanks, Beto _________________________ {Beto|Norberto|Numard} Meijome "Intellectual: 'Someone who has been educated beyond his/her intelligence'" Arthur C.
