I have SHAMView 3.2 (it showed up on PLink this week), but I was completely
unaware that SHAMView takes standard GIF-format files as input.  Is this
true?

Also on the topic of SHAMView, I am having some serious problems with it's
printing function.  It prints each scan line beautifully - about a half
inch apart!  It's the same with WB1.2, WB1.3, WB1.3.2.  I'm using an
Okidata 92 printer driver.  Any help would be appreciated.
