I am currently working with a hand scanner (the COMPLETE hand scanner).
One of the softwares has the option to save the scanned image either as
(1) Image file, (2) Dr. Halo file, (3) PC Paintbrush file, (4) WIndows
Paint file.
Could somebody tell me the way each format stores the image. I need this
info in order to decode the image from the scanner and use it for other
purpose.
I appreciate your help.

Hans.
