1 Introduction

The purpose of the DigiFile utility is to convert DigImage image files and PostScript between the variety of different file formats used by DigImage and other programs and printers. In particular, DigiFile can convert images to and from Windows .BMP bit map files, PaintJet XL and PaintJet XL300 printer files, LaserJet (PCL4 or PCL5) files and PostScript files (both greyscale and colour). DigiFile can use DigImage windows files, DigImage compressed images or Windows .BMP files as the input image. DigiFile can also convert and print PostScript between the three forms (.PS - normal; .EPS - encapsulated and .DPS - data only) produced by DigImage and alter the layout of plots etc. In most cases DigiFile is the preferred method of sending a PostScript or image file to a printer.
