Hello. Is there a utility out there to write a TFW header file from a TAB
file? I know about importing a TFW into a TAB, but how about the other
direction?
Background: I've got a pile of manually registered TIFs in MapInfo and need
to fire them off to an ArcView person. TFW files are strange - they contain
coordinates for the 0,0 pixel value of the image, which for ArcView is the
upper left (for MapInfo it is the lower left). They then hold the number of
feet (or other unit) represented by a pixel in a plus one, minus one
arrangement. They contain no projection/coordinate system info. Manual
creation is a possibility if I can determine the pixels to feet ratio and
the zero point.
Thanks for tools or tips.
