5121.0. "Question: DDIF --> IFF" by AIDEV::LANDINGHAM (Guy M., LMO2-1/D10, 296-5365) Sun Oct 13 1991 10:54

Hello!

I have some DDIF files created with DECDesign (they are Yourdon software
diagrams) that I'd like to convert to IFF and download, for viewing/editting
with, say, DeluxePaint.

Does anyone know if this is possible, and what tool(s) I need to accomplish
this?

Thanks very much.

I'm not an expert, but I know UTOX can take DDIF and convert it to SIXEL.
The program CSIX.EXE can convert that to IFF on VMS. There are other 
notes in here which may give you ideas. I suspect there are several
way to go. There is a note in here about CSIX.

Good luck.

	I would think you colud use UTOX to convert the DDIF (assuming it's not
	a color DDIF file) to a GIF format.  Load the GIF file on the Amy and
	use something like GIFMachine to convert to IFF.

    Unfortunately this won't work since CSIX only converts IFF to SIXEL not
    the other way 'round (although it does an excellent job on the former).

    Unfortunately, UtoX supports GIF only as for input - it can't save in
    GIF format.
