- Imconv available by anonymous ftp from sdsc.edu will convert mac
pict files to postscript ( it can write , but not read postscript).
Unfortunately, we are only releasing binary versions and there is not
a binary NeXT version yet. If there is alot of demand for this, I
could probably talk my boss into letting me work on it. It currently
converts between about 24 formats , theres a .tif one , I don't know
if it's .tiff or not. So annoy the mail adminstrators and send me 
mail if you would like to see imconv available for the NeXT.
