Quite apart from Hijaak there are a number of Windows shareware
graphics tools that do this.
Batch aside, I just yesterday learned the Making of America project was
storing as TIFF and converting on the fly to GIF (using the unix
tiff2gif utility). Apparently in larger projects, with lower hit rates
on individual pages the economics may indicate this.
Has anyone seen a *server side* control in the NT world that could do
this?
