Iconvert
Software | > | Graphics software | > | Iconvert |
Iconvert is a DOS program for converting raster graphics file formats. It was developed by John P. Michalski and Infinity Engineering Services, around 1987-1990.
Its name is misleading, as it does not have anything to do with icons.
Supported formats include CompuServe RLE, Doodle! (C64), FONTASY, a Newsroom format, NewsMaster (see PrintMaster), MSP (Microsoft Paint), and other more common formats like PCX.
Ed. note: Iconvert is not easy to use, but because it can write some rarely-supported formats, it could be useful for research purposes.

nor did applying the patch help.
