It's excellent. I use that on my Linux box and works sweet.

Think UNIX. Think one tool for one job.
Survex does survey reduction. ImageMagick just does image conversions
and covers dozens of formats. Just adding gif conversion ability to
survex will encourage others to ask for bmp, tiff, pcx, etc....
I dont want any thing from survex except PostScript which it has
now :-)
Keep survex pure :-)
If Graham does not have ImageMagick he can also download for free "The
Gimp" for Windows and that will be able to read the ps image and
convertit to may different formats.
Best wishes to all,
