Hello Andrew,

AW> What we need really is to find some way of creating thumbnails

AW> Imagetool to find out what it is...
I don't know what your UNIX guru recommends, but in the MS-Windows world I
would try the shareware program Paintshop Pro (PSP311.ZIP on many FTP
servers). Paintshop Pro knows about LOTS of graphics formats. May be even your
variant of TIFF.
Greetinggs from Germany,
Alexander
