You can also do this to various other formats, like PNG or TIFF. Depending on what you're printing, these may work better than JPEG. I'm sure there are graphics programs that'll load PostScript, too, but offhand I don't know what would work best for that. If you wanted to, I'm sure you could set up a print queue that'd do this processing for you automatically, but I don't know of any site that documents precisely how you'd go about doing this. -- Rod Smith, rodsmith@rodsbooks.com http://www.rodsbooks.com Author of books on Linux, FreeBSD, and networking .
