By hi-res, do you mean monochrome or color? Oh well, no matter, I'm just curious. Anyway, there's a program which I saw (& have, I think 9-) called PICSWTCH for the Atari ST, which will convert various resolution pictures from the ST to various interesting formats (I don't remember all of them, but there was quite a list). You may want to get a hold of it. >Does anyone have/know of a program that will convert >HAM pictures on the Amiga to Sun raster format? > >Does anyone know where I can find out just what the >specifications for IFF format are?

As I recall, the specs for IFF are listed in one of the RKMs (I don't have them, so I don't know which). But, I also remember it being covered by one of the magazines (maybe Amiga Transactor, in an early issue?). > -Mark. >-- >________________________________________________________________ >Mark Kennedy | AT&T: (612) 649-1119 >Control Data Corporation | E-Mail: mek@punjab.udev.cdc.com >All opinions expressed are my own and bear no relation to fact.
