 (there's one library that claims to be comprehensive, but it's
 thousands of dollars) but it's easy with any platform that supports
 ImageMagick.

 I might write up the process when we get around to implementing it,
 but it probably won't be until the last minute.

[google-appengine] Alternate to Conversion API

conversion.  Suddenly, I got the email from Google about the plan for
