sam2p - Converts raster images to Adobe PostScript or PDF files
sam2p is a UNIX command line utility written in
ANSI C++ that converts many raster (bitmap) image formats into Adobe
PostScript or PDF files and several other formats. The images are not
vectorized. sam2p gives full control to the user to specify
standards-compliance, compression, and bit depths. In some cases sam2p
can compress an image 100 times smaller than the PostScript output of
many other common image converters. sam2p provides ZIP, RLE and LZW
(de)compression filters even on Level1 devices.
