Re: HPT to TIFF image scaling?

["Brad Stone" <brad@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In this particular application, it needs to be TIFF.  But
I'd be interested in hearing if there is a WSCST that you
can use to create the BMP.

It just seems to me there should be more settings, either in
the print file or with the HPT or WSCST used to scale the
image to fit.  Since it prints fine..

If I could convert from PCL to something.. then it would be
worth it.  But everyone charges an arm and a leg for that
type of application source.. :)
