This entry looks at ways to produce gif files, e.g. for your web page.
[This is currently a rough draft - please email me if you have
information to add]
Some approaches are:
o use the "psrast" tool that comes with WebWorks (on Unix) to
convert a postscript file to a gif file (to get the postscript
file, you could "Print" a Frame doc containing just the
diagram to a postscript file). See
http://web/library/Lib_gifs/gen.gifs.how.to
for a procedure you can adapt.
o I think you can get our scanner/scanner software to produce
gif - talk to Andrew Baker (or possibly Hoylen Sue -
watch this spot for more info)
o Internet Assistant for Word does it sometimes (i.e. I've
had mixed success with the Mac version - from memory it
sometimes screws up the colours.)
o Hoylen Sue has used a tool "pbmplus" & says it is excellent; see:
