Plot format conversion

I don't use any Bruker Unix systems, so there may be some limitations
I don't know, but there are several generic conversion programs
available for Unix systems; they could probably be compiled on either
X-32 or SGI systems. If you are converting a postscript file, one of
the nicest systems is ImageMagick; you can read about it on

http://www.wizards.dupont.com/cristy/ImageMagick.html

and obtain the software from

ftp://ftp.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/

It is a little complicated to set up, as it requires several other
packages, but it will convert virtually any image format into another,
and permit a wide variety of operations on them.

For HPGL files, I have used the much simpler program hp2xx, which will
convert the HPGL to a wide variety of other formats. It is available
from most gnu sites.

I hope this helps.
