We are currently trying to devise a way to convert GPR files generated on an Apollo
to TIFF that can be read on a Mac. However, the conversion package I am using
(Sam Leffler's tifflib archive from uunet) uses TIFF format version 5, which I have
yet to find a Mac package that will understand. They all seem to want to use rev
4.

So, does anybody out there know of a Mac package that will either:
1.Read version 5.0 TIFF files.
2.Convert 5 to 4.
3.Read Apollo GPR files.

I also have the PBM/FBM package and it has been no help either.
If you can help me in any way on this, I'd be very appreciative.
Thanks,
---Steve
