Short: illustrate your TeX-documents with bitmaps using dvips
Uploader: epgbc@cluster1.urz.Uni-Halle.DE (Andreas Maschke)

Type: text/tex
If you have to create documents for study you have to use TeX because
a) only this package allows you to include formulas and tables
into your document in a professional manner and
b) TeX is a standard, you can write your text at home and
print it out everywhere.
But if you want to include any bitmap-graphics you will get problems
because the needed \special-commands are *not* platform-independent.
Here comes iff2eps in: It converts your IFF-bitmap into an EPSF-file
which can be included into TeX-documents using dvips in a platform-
independent manner.
So you can translate and print out your document under AmigaDOS,
UNIX, LINUX, DOS,... keeping all graphics.
That's nice, isn't it ?
