Been working with xcircuit. It saves in PS but can be
made into a jpeg which looked just as sharp as the
original.
I found this command online:
gs -dBATCH -sOutputFile=4804SR-output.jpg
-sDEVICE=jpeg 4804SR-output.ps
Which I changed to this:
gs -dBATCH -sOutputFile=4804SR-output.png
-sDEVICE=jpeg 4804SR-output.ps
The first file it created ends in .jpg, the second in
.png. But they're both the same size and look exactly
the same in the browser. When I gave it -sDEVICE=png
it replied "Unknown device: png". So maybe it just
makes jpegs but will call them whatever...
