DLL to convert images (NOT OCX!)

[jocron]

Does anybody know of a DLL that is able to convert images (Embedded TIFF to GIF/JPEG specifically). It cannot be an OCX as it is run by the server. I have tried the ImageMan DLL suite which works fine but causes WinNT to GPF the moment the application tries to release the image.

One solution is to install 600Gb of RAM and not to free resources, but I suspect that's not going to do it...

Hi,

For converting images to JPEG we use a programm wich runs from the command-line.
It converts not only the TIFF but many other formats to JPEG.
You can work with a number of parameters to control the output.

The programm 2JPEG can be found at http://www.fcoder.com.

Hope it solves the problem

JM.

This is noddy, U do NOT need a converter. Windows or whatever operating system will handle it, and the software used to open will convert.
Simply force a file change. Rename the program using progress convert the file.
Rename original file, whateveFileName.tif RENAME to whateveFileName.GIF/JPEG the opening software will B forced by the operating system to display/use the
file in the converted format - GIF/JPEG
