notes on lgif.exe - R. C. Allen, W5SXD - 20 October 1990
--------------------------------------------------------
LGIF (LaserGIF) takes standard .gif files and prints them using
halftoning to a Hewlett Packard LaserJet series II printer. It
uses a 5x5 or 5x6 pixel matrix for every pixel in the .gif file
after converting from rgb to grey-scale. It may also blow the
image up by 2x.
320x200 5x6 (31 shades) after scaling 2x
640x400 5x6 (31 shades)
640x480 5x5 (26 shades)
For other sizes, if width less than 640 then scale 2x. If scaled
height less than 480 then use 5x6 matrix else use 5x5.
Typical prints take about 3 minutes on a 386/20 so it's a bit of a pig ...
Enjoy,
Richard Allen, W5SXD
