Re: GIF making

Hello,

We use pbmplus to make DiFAX GIFs at the College of DuPage. Many, 
unfortunately, come out sideways. Any way to keep them at 640X480 and have them 
rotated the correct way? Anyone doing it? And if so, can I take a look at your 
scripts?

Thanks for any assistance!

Gilbert

Gilbert,

We are using the netpbm utilities with ImageMagick convert to rotate the images for printing. I have an old set of the scripts sitting on our anonymous ftp server. Let me re-tar the latest distribution and I can mail you when it is ready. The scripts are run from cron, and we get our difax images from an ftp site. The main thing you are looking for is the convert utility though, and it is in the distribution.
Actually, I'll just tar the stuff right now, and put it in pub/Difax on 
ariel.tamu.edu. I'm doing this from home, so if my kids leave me alone, it 
shouldn't take long.
