	If you fall under the aladin license, take a look at pdflib - I'm currently 
using it to create PDFs from TIFF images - it can also take jpeg, png, and 
some others as input.

	If you'd like I can forward on my tiff specific code which does this - it 
shouldn't be hard to port to a different image type. And it may not take any 
changes at all.

There are many who think Mr Packard should have put his name first. 
The naming of HP/UX would have been more correct, at least...
