This project is part of a large workflow process. There is a document management software that OCR's incoming documents. We take the OCR'd plain text, parse it into a fields/values hash, compare sku's/prices to a database, rearrange the fields/values into a normalized format, and pass a tif image of the resulting document back to the document management software for search/archival purposes. cpan lists many modules for converting graphics formats to tiff. Google shows several proprietary/pay binary text to tiff conversion tools. I am hoping to do this entirely in Perl. What do you think? -- Best Regards, Mike Schleif mds resource 877.596.8237 - What will you do with 1 Million website visitors? <http://millionsoffreevisitors.com> --
