Name of contribution: sam2p Author's name: Szabó Péter Location on CTAN: graphics/sam2p Summary description: A sophisticated raster image-converter to PostScript and PDF License type: gpl
Announcement text given by the contribution's author: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sam2p is a UNIX command line utility written in ANSI C++ that converts many raster (bitmap) image formats into Adobe PostScript or PDF files and several other formats. The images are not vectorized. sam2p gives full control to the user to specify standards-compliance, compression, and bit depths. In some cases sam2p can compress an image 100 times smaller than the PostScript output of many other common image converters. sam2p provides ZIP, RLE and LZW (de)compression filters even on Level1 devices. - - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
