----------------------------Original message----------------------------
You might try L-View Pro, too. It coverts from just about any format to any
other format merely by saving the file with a name ending in the extension
appropriate to the format into which the graphic will be converted. After
conversion, all sorts of color/hue/density modifications can be made.
It's shareware readily available on the Internet.
