I am trying to convert XWD format image files to PostScript.  The
information I have on the possible parameters of the xwd file is:

	format	     - ZPixmap, and XYPixmap
	visual class - DirectColor, PseudoColor, and GreyScale
	pixmap depth - Up to 24 bits/pixel

I don't really know what these all mean... is there a tool out
there that will deal with it for me, or do I need to learn:-)?

In particular, for those familiar with HP's Starbase graphics
software, this is the kind of xwd files potentially output from
the "sb2xwd" Starbase to X conversion utility.

Thanks in advance,
